A return to his former club could be on the cards for a Tottenham youngster, who has struggled to make the expected impact since arriving in North London two years ago.

Tottenham’s transfer policy of signing raw young talents has been relatively successful, with the likes of Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray surpassing expectations in their first seasons at N17.

However, that has not been the case with Alejo Veliz, who has struggled to make an impact in European football since arriving straight from Argentina two years ago.

The 21-year-old has had two back-to-back poor loan spells at Sevilla and Espanyol, and there have been rumours over recent months that Veliz could return to Argentine football this summer.

Alejo Veliz’s former club want him back from Tottenham

While River Plate have been mooted as Veliz’s biggest suitor over recent weeks, it has now emerged that another Primera Division club are extremely keen on signing the striker.

Journalist Esteban Edul has taken to social media to reveal Veliz’s former club, Rosaria Central, where he first made a name for himself, are keen on re-signing him.

After securing the services of Angel Di Maria, Rosaria Central are now expected to begin work on re-signifying the Tottenham Hotspur man, who they view as their dream summer acquisition.

Is Veliz ready to call time on his Tottenham career?

While the forward continues to be linked with a return to his home country this summer, some Argentine outlets have suggested that it is unlikely to happen.

This includes an update by TyC Sports, who claimed back in April that Veliz intends to continue in Europe.

Tottenham insider Paul O’Keefe has revealed the latest on the future of Spurs target Marc Guehi and it is not good news for the North Londoners.

As the speculation linking Cristian Romero with Atletico Madrid refuses to go away, the Lilywhites are thought to be scouring the market for a potential replacement.

Several sources have claimed over the last few weeks that Tottenham have identified Marc Guehi as their top choice to replace Romero.

Tottenham had a £70m offer for Guehi rejected late in January, but the Palace man is expected to be available for £50m this summer as he has just a year left on his contract at Selhurst Park.

Paul O’Keefe claims Guehi is speaking to European giants

Over the last few days, many British outlets have claimed that Spurs’ main competition for the England defender is expected to come from a Premier League rival.

Newcastle have been backed to launch an offer for Guehi, but Tottenham insider Paul O’Keefe has now revealed that Ange Postecoglou’s men have to contend with competition from one of the biggest clubs in Europe for the 24-year-old.

Responding to a fan’s question about Newcastle’s interest in the centre-back, O’Keefe revealed on social media that Guehi is currently in talks with Bayern Munich.

Tottenham have an alternative in mind for Marc Guehi

Just a couple of days ago, The Daily Mail claimed that Spurs have identified Fikayo Tomori as a cheaper alternative to Guehi.

Tottenham’s move for Tomori in January was knocked back by Milan, but the former Chelsea man is expected to leave the San Siro this summer.

One exciting Tottenham winger is rumoured to be the subject of transfer interest, but the Lilywhites are now reportedly optimistic that he will commit to a long-term deal at the North London club.

There are many exciting talents in and around the Spurs first-team at the moment, but few are as highly regarded at Hotspur Way as Mikey Moore.

The 17-year-old made his mark when he got first-team opportunities earlier this season, showing just why there is so much hype about him, but his game time dried up in the second part of the season after the return of key players from injury.

Over recent weeks, it has been rumoured that Borussia Dortmund and others are eyeing a summer deal for Moore, just a year on from the teenager signing his first professional contract with Spurs.

In fact, it was alleged by GiveMeSport recently that Dortmund had even contacted Moore’s representatives, but it was explained that Tottenham were looking to hand him a new contract to ward off the Bundesliga club.

Tottenham have begun contract talks with Mikey Moore

TBR Football have now claimed that Spurs have already held talks with the winger regarding a new long-term deal after his breakthrough season.

In fact, the outlet claims that Tottenham expect a new contract to be in place for Moore when he turns 18 in August.

Negotiations will continue with the Spurs academy graduate over the summer, with the Lilywhites keen to ensure that his long-term future is at N17.

Just a few weeks ago, it emerged that Moore has changed his representation to Unique Sports Group, who will now be handling the contract negotiations with the Tottenham board.

Spurs are delighted with Mikey Moore’s progress

TBR Football also spoke to journalist Graeme Bailey, who revealed that the decision-makers at the club are delighted with the way the youngster has come on this season.

He said about the teenager: “They (Spurs) are delighted with his progress and maturity, given he has played in some difficult situations, but the experience he already has will be invaluable.”

A 62-year-old academy coach, who recently parted ways with Tottenham Hotspur, could join Ryan Mason’s coaching staff at West Bromwich Albion as the Spurs assistant coach edges towards a move to the Hawthorns.

Mason has been heavily linked with the top job at West Brom after being approached by the Baggies to replace Tony Mowbray, who departed the club in April.

The Tottenham assistant coach is rated highly at Hotspur Way, having been part of Postecoglou’s coaching staff for the last two years and having served as the club’s interim head coach on two occasions.

A few days ago, it emerged that Mason could take some Spurs coaches with him to West Brom, and it has now been revealed that he has an eye on one man in particular.

Paul Bracewell could join Ryan Mason at West Brom after Tottenham exit

A few days ago, Tottenham’s long-serving academy coach Paul Bracewell was let go by the North London club after his position was made redundant.

Now, Football Insider claim that Bracewell can make an instant return to coaching following his exit from Hotspur Way by joining Mason at the Hawthorns.

The report says that Mason is now in advanced talks to take over as the Baggies manager after being identified as the club’s top target.

It is revealed that Bracewell could join Mason at the Midlands club as part of his coaching staff, with the experienced operator being able to guide the former Tottenham midfielder in his first managerial adventure.

Mason has his work cut out if he takes the West Brom job

West Brom finished just four points off the playoff spot this season and Mason will thus be expected to push for promotion next season.

However, the 33-year-old will have his work cut out at the Championship side as Football Insider points out that they have posted a £33.9m loss in their latest accounting period.

As a result, they will have to sell some key players this summer and may not be able to back their new head coach with top signings.

Tottenham Hotspur reportedly have their eyes on four different Premier League bosses to replace Ange Postecoglou, and they are big fans of Thomas Frank for one key reason.

Ange Postecoglou is currently on holiday as he awaits his fate, with reports indicating that a managerial change is likely at Tottenham despite the club’s Europa League success.

However, the Lilywhites cannot afford to drag their feet on the decision for too long, with the transfer market now officially open.

A new report has now shed light on the four Premier League bosses that the North Londoners are assessing and their chances of getting them through the door.

Four Premier League bosses eyed as Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham replacement

The Telegraph have backed up what we have heard from other reports over recent months by naming Thomas Frank, Marco Silva, Andoni Iraola and Oliver Glasner as potential options to replace Postecoglou in the Tottenham hot seat.

The report says that Frank is in the frame for the job as his work with young players at the Gtech Community Stadium appeals to Tottenham while Silva is also highly rated by the decision-makers at Hotspur Way.

However, it is revealed that a move for Iraola may not be straightforward as the Spaniard is expected to remain at the Vitality Stadium.

Finally, the outlet also points out that Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish is adamant Oliver Glasner would stay at Selhurst Park for one more season.

What Oliver Glasner and Thomas Frank have said about their futures

Despite Steve Parish’s bullish claim, Glasner has left the door slightly open for a potential Palace exit, putting his chances of remaining with the Eagles at 99 per cent rather than 100.

Meanwhile, talkSPORT presenter Natalie Sawyer revealed last week that Frank had sent a cryptic message hinting at staying at Brentford for one more year.

While there has been no official communication from Tottenham Hotspur about Ange Postecoglou’s future since the end of the season, a new report says that Daniel Levy has already made his decision on the Australian’s future.

The general consensus among the British press over the last week has been that there will be a managerial change at Tottenham Hotspur this summer despite the club’s Europa League success.

In fact, The Independent’s Miguel Delaney even said recently that Postecoglou’s chances of keeping his Spurs job have dropped below 5 per cent.

While some sources have said over the last 24 hours that chances of Postecoglou staying cannot be ruled out, a new update has claimed that the Australian’s fate has already been sealed.

Daniel Levy has decided to sack Ange Postecoglou at Tottenham

According to Football Insider, Tottenham have already decided to sack Postecoglou after the Lilywhites suffered 22 league defeats this season.

Spurs’ formal stance is that no firm decision has been made as Daniel Levy has been out of the UK since the end of the season.

However, internally the Tottenham hierarchy have already decided to make a managerial change this summer despite the Australian delivering the club’s first trophy in 17 years.

The outlet claims that Spurs board have been waiting for the emotions of the Europa League success to subside before testing the temperature of the fan base about the Australian.

However, the North London club are now pressing ahead with their pursuit of a new manager and are expected to formally announce Postecoglou’s departure within the next few days.

Spurs have sounded out potential replacements for Postecoglou

Football Insider also claim that Spurs have sounded out replacements for the 59-year-old and have made some progress in talks with various candidates.

The outlet confirms what we have heard from other sources by naming Thomas Frank, Marco Silva and Andoni Iraola as the top contenders, with all three having admirers at Hotspur Way.

The publication adds that these three candidates are rated highly due to their ability to develop young players and their proven Premier League calibre.

Tottenham Hotspur fans are now waiting for an official communication from the club regarding Ange Postecoglou’s future, and a new report has now suggested that they will not have to wait for long.

It has been widely reported by a few outlets over the last week that Postecoglou is expected to be sacked by Spurs despite delivering the Europa League trophy to the club.

However, it was alleged by Gianluca Di Marzio on Saturday that the tide is turning at Tottenham Hotspur in the Australian’s favour and that Postecoglou’s chances of keeping his job had increased.

Amidst these contradictory updates, a new report has revealed when the Lilywhites will finalise their decision on their managerial role.

Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham fate will become clear very soon

According to The Telegraph, Postecoglou will learn whether he will get a third season at Tottenham this coming week.

The report says that the Australian’s position remains under extreme risk despite the European success, with the team’s poor showing in the Premier League causing the North Londoners to assess other managers.

The 59-year-old is currently on holiday while Levy has also been away from the UK since the end of the season. A change of manager is anticipated by this coming week, along with some major changes across various departments at the club.

Daniel Levy finds himself between a rock and a hard place

Given Postecoglou’s popularity among Spurs fans and Levy’s lack of it, a decision to sack the Australian will not go down well with the club’s fan base.

However, if Spurs stick with the former Celtic boss and have a poor or indifferent start to the season, the pitchforks will once again be out against the Tottenham board next term.

The idea that winning the trophy alone is enough to justify keeping Postecoglou falls flat when one realises that the last Spurs head coach to win a trophy was Juande Ramos.

League finish is a much better metric of how consistent a team is and the Tottenham top brass may decide that a 17th-place finish is simply unacceptable, irrespective of the extenuating circumstances.

Journalist Tancredi Palmeri has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur have already held conversations with a highly decorated Italian manager over replacing Ange Postecoglou, but they are not the only ones after him.

As Daniel Levy contemplates whether to sack Ange Postecoglou, a number of high-profile replacements have allegedly been explored by the Lilywhites, including a man who has won a whole host of trophies in Italy.

It first emerged a few months ago that Fabio Paratici had urged Daniel Levy to appoint Inzaghi as the next Spurs head coach.

It was subsequently claimed that Simone Inzaghi’s name is ‘getting hotter’ in the race for the Tottenham job, but it has now emerged that the Lilywhites are not the only ones eyeing a move for the 49-year-old.

Simone Inzaghi has held talks with two other clubs apart from Tottenham

On Saturday night, the experienced Italian coach suffered a heartbreak as his Inter side were thrashed 5-0 by Paris Saint-Germain in the final of the Champions League.

It means that the Nerazzurri ended the season without silverware despite competing admirably both domestically and in Europe all season.

Journalist Tancredi Palmeri has now revealed that the Italian coach has been offered a huge contract by Al Hilal, and has also held advanced talks with both Spurs and Newcastle.

However, he suggested that the Inter boss’s priority is to remain at the San Siro next season, even though he finds the Premier League to be tempting.

Palmeri told talkSPORT about Inzaghi’s future: “The situation is that Al Hilal offered him £25m per season for two seasons. I can tell you that he had advanced contacts with both Newcastle and Tottenham Hotspur but at the same time, the priority for him is to stay at Inter.

“Obviously if we talk on a financial level nobody can compete with the salary that Al Hilal are offering. But the Premier League is always a great temptation and at the same time I must tell you that Inzaghi already rejected Liverpool last summer and Manchester United in October.”

What Inzaghi said about his future after Inter’s defeat to PSG

As one would expect, the Nerazzurri head coach was not in the mood to discuss his future after his side had been humiliated at the Allianz Arena on Saturday.

He admitted that he was hurting after the 5-0 loss and insisted that now is not the time to address the speculation regarding his role.

When asked if he would be in charge of Inter for the Club World Cup, the Tottenham managerial target responded: “As I was saying before to your colleague, I cannot answer this question now. I came here out of respect for you, for politeness because I am hurting from a sporting point of view.

“It’s not the right time to talk about the future. We are extremely disappointed and since July of last year we’ve played 58 or 59 games, we got to this final match, so it’s awkward to talk about my future now.

“Again, we are extremely disappointed. We will be talking about the fact we won no silverware this year but these players deserve great credit because they gave it their very best shot and we suffered a lot of injuries. I wouldn’t change these players for anyone else.”

Tottenham suffered twice the injury setbacks Liverpool did during the 2024/25 season, with the final numbers underlining just how much their campaign was defined by injuries.

It sure was a memorable 2024/25 campaign for Tottenham Hotspur for both the right and wrong reasons, with the Lilywhites winning their first major trophy since 2008, but they endured an abysmal domestic campaign – their worst ever – as they ended in 17th place after losing 22 League games.

For Ange Postecoglou, he would rightly point to the club’s injury crisis as one of the major reasons for the north London club’s slump down the table, as his second spell in charge saw Tottenham end a staggering 12 places below his first season.

In February, we reported that Spurs had a whopping 198 cases of missing personnel, with every player suffering an injury at some point, with the exception of five.

Tottenham players missed over 1,500 days to injury in 2024/25

Now, with the season wrapped up, a round-up of all the injuries suffered by each Premier League club has been revealed, and it makes for interesting reading.

According to reports from Premier Injuries, Spurs were among the hardest-hit clubs in the Premier League this season when it came to player availability, but they were not the worst off.

The Lilywhites are reported to have lost a staggering 1,553 player-days to injury, which is more than double Liverpool’s total.

In fact, only Brighton players, with 1,944, missed more days through injury, while relegated Ipswich Town (1,506 days) and trophyless Arsenal (1,297 days) also had serious availability issues.

Spurs’ 41 injury cases levelled with Ipswich Town

In terms of separate injury cases, Tottenham had 41, level with Ipswich Town, with only Brighton recording more, 48, while the Gunners endured 36 separate injury cases.

The data, compiled by the report, includes any injury issue that forced a player to miss at least one competitive match, with illnesses and pre-season knocks not counting.

Other clubs who lost over 1,000 player-days to injury include Manchester United (1,295), Bournemouth (1,185) and Manchester City (1,134), while West Ham (672), Nottingham Forest (673) and Liverpool (765) fared best in terms of player availability.

Tottenham Hotspur are set for another European night under the lights, as they now know who they will face in the UEFA Super Cup following their historic Europa League triumph.

Tottenham Hotspur ended their 2024/25 campaign in the best way possible, winning the UEFA Europa League and ending a 41-year wait for a European trophy, having last lifted silverware in Europe in 1984.

In doing so, the north London club also ended a 17-year wait for any kind of major honour, securing a place in next season’s UEFA Champions League, despite a dismal domestic campaign that saw them finish 17th in the Premier League table.

Their Europa League success has also booked them a place in the UEFA Super Cup, which will take place on Wednesday, August 13, in Udine, Italy – a one-off clash that pits the winners of the Champions League against the Europa League champions.

Tottenham will play Paris Saint-Germain in UEFA Super Cup final

With a place in the UEFA Super Cup final booked, Tottenham Hotspur will now have the opportunity to make it two European trophies in as many finals, when they take to the field in three months’ time.

Tottenham fans are understandably relishing the prospect of another final, as there is a growing confidence that the side can step up once more on the big stage.

Following the UEFA Champions League final between Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain, Tottenham have now discovered their Super Cup final opponents.

Tottenham’s Destiny Udogie will be very familiar with the venue, having spent the 2021/22 season on loan at Udinese.

The last time the two sides met was in July 2017 when Tottenham beat PSG 4-2 in the International Champions Cup, a fixture held in Orlando, USA.

Spurs set for European windfall and ticket estimates revealed

Tottenham Hotspur’s involvement in the UEFA Super Cup will bring a financial boost, as the club is set to earn €4 million (£3.3m) from UEFA simply for taking part in the final, and an additional €1 million (£839,000) should they go on to win it.

While ticket prices for the 2025 final have yet to be confirmed, it is expected they will remain in line with those of last year’s edition, providing supporters with a general idea of what to budget for.

Last year’s ticket pricing was as follows:

Although ticket prices do not typically vary much from year to year, it is advisable for fans to use these as a rough benchmark until UEFA officially confirms the 2025 structure and opens the sales window.
