Spurs Web

Tottenham Hotspur could be gearing up for a major statement in the transfer market, with internal talks reportedly paving the way for a marquee summer signing.

Following a successful 2024/25 campaign that saw them reach their objective of securing UEFA Champions League football, albeit through the continental route after beating Manchester United in the Europa League final, Tottenham Hotspur will be looking to build on their recent progress.

Ange Postecoglou, whose future remains uncertain, has publicly urged Tottenham to bring in experience ahead of the 2025/26 season as the Lilywhites prepare to return to Europe’s premier competition.

It has been revealed that Spurs are targeting reinforcements in three positions during this summer window, with six potential additions already identified by the recruitment team.

Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy pushing for a marquee signing after internal talks

Daniel Levy is said to be keen to show ambition in this window, with the Tottenham chairman determined to retain star centre-back Cristian Romero, despite strong interest from Spanish giants Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid.

According to GIVEMESPORT, the club’s chairman is now eyeing a marquee signing this summer following internal discussions held earlier this week with key decision-makers at the club.

It has also emerged that some of the names under consideration include Manchester City’s Jack Grealish and Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze, as Levy appears increasingly open-minded about securing a headline addition to bolster the squad ahead of their Champions League return.

Eberechi Eze release clause and Tottenham’s pursuit of attacking quality

Eberechi Eze is believed to have a £68 million release clause, which is expected to become active this summer.

The feeling around the club is that the arrival of either Grealish or Eze would represent a major coup, potentially becoming the club’s record signing in the process.

Jamie O’Hara had recently called on Daniel Levy to make a statement by signing Leroy Sane amid links with Spurs, though Sane now looks likely to remain in Germany, with contract talks at Bayern Munich said to be progressing well.

Tottenham still retain some interest in RB Leipzig’s Xavi Simons, but reports suggest the club are weighing up other options.

Given the club’s persistent links with Eze, it will be intriguing to see whether this summer finally brings a conclusion to a long-running transfer saga.

Tottenham Hotspur might have an ace up their sleeve in their pursuit of Leroy Sane as footage has emerged showing how friendly the former Manchester City man is with Heung-min Son.

Speculation linking the Bayern Munich man with a move to Spurs has gone into hyperdrive over the last few days as the winger’s contract with the Bundesliga club runs out next month.

While Bayern are still attempting to tie Sane down to a new contract, it appears that the Lilywhites are lurking in the background, ready to pounce on the 29-year-old.

In fact, on Saturday, Christian Falk told FC Bayern Insider that Tottenham are increasingly optimistic about being able to land Leroy Sane, with Daniel Levy spearheading the pursuit.

Could Tottenham use agent Heung-min Son to land Leroy Sane?

It emerged a few days ago that Tottenham may have an advantage over other suitors in the race for the winger as Levy has a very good relationship with Sane’s agent Pini Zahavi.

It turns out that the North London club may have another ace up their sleeve in the transfer pursuit: their captain, Heung-min Son.

Spurs fans on social media have dug up footage from last season’s pre-season friendly between Bayern and the Lilywhites at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

After the game, the South Korean is seen embracing the Bayern winger as the pair walk into the changing room arm in arm, clearly demonstrating that they are good friends.

One stumbling block for Spurs in completing Sane deal

The one issue Spurs might have in getting this deal over the line is the winger’s salary demands.

It was reported by Football Insider a few days ago that Sane is expected to demand a mega-money contract offer from his suitors this summer.

The outlet explained that he is currently earning more than £300,000 per week at the Allianz Arena.

If he demands a similar wage at Tottenham, then the North Londoners would have to make Leroy Sane their highest-paid player by some distance to land him.

Tottenham have been given a significant boost in their pursuit of one transfer target as Man City are willing to sell for just £25m.

Tottenham Hotspur have already encountered early challenges in the build-up to the summer transfer window, with some setbacks before the market officially opens.

Spurs had shown serious interest in Johnny Cardoso, with a £21 million option in place to make his move permanent; however, it has now emerged that Cardoso prefers a move to Atletico Madrid rather than a switch to north London.

There has also been disappointment surrounding Liam Delap, another target Tottenham have monitored since the winter window. According to Fabrizio Romano, who has now issued his trademark “here we go”, Delap is instead heading to Chelsea, despite interest from Tottenham.

Tottenham handed boost and setback in James McAtee transfer race

Spurs will be hoping to act swiftly once the window opens, with the summer market set to begin earlier than usual.

Now, they have been handed both encouragement and concern in the chase for Manchester City midfielder James McAtee – a player Tottenham tried to sign late in the winter window, only to be rebuffed by Pep Guardiola’s side, who were unwilling to part with the 22-year-old at the time.

That stance has since changed, as Manchester City are now open to a sale, and Tottenham have been handed a lift in their pursuit, with Simon Bajkowski reporting that City have given McAtee the green light to leave.

The journalist posted in his tweet on X: “James McAtee keen on the Bundesliga and a number of Bundesliga clubs are keen on him as City give the £25m green light to his exit.”

Spurs face competition from Bundesliga clubs for James McAtee

While McAtee is now free to depart Manchester City, the situation is not entirely favourable for Tottenham, with the same report stating that the attacking midfielder is eyeing a move to Germany’s top flight rather than the Premier League.

Bayer Leverkusen remain one of the clubs in the frame, having tracked the England Under-21 international for some time.

Although Xabi Alonso has now left the club, the interest has not faded, and it is understood that new Leverkusen head coach Erik ten Hag had also previously discussed McAtee as a target during his time at Manchester United.

Simon Bajkowski further notes that other Bundesliga clubs – including Frankfurt, Dortmund, Leipzig and Stuttgart – have all expressed interest, which means Tottenham could face a difficult battle if they are to tempt the midfielder to north London.

Tottenham Hotspur fans remain optimistic about winning the UEFA Super Cup final against PSG despite the Parisians’ impressive showing against Inter Milan in the Champions League final.

It has been confirmed that Tottenham Hotspur will face Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Super Cup final on Wednesday, 13 August, in Udine, Italy.

Spurs booked their place in the final after edging out Manchester United 1-0 in the Europa League final, while Paris Saint-Germain qualified by thrashing Inter Milan 5-0 in the Champions League final.

This clash will be the first competitive meeting between the two clubs, although they last met in the International Champions Cup in Orlando, USA, where Tottenham ran out 4-2 winners against Paris Saint-Germain.

Tottenham fans confident ahead of PSG UEFA Super Cup clash

With PSG entering the tie as UEFA Champions League winners, and doing so in emphatic style, we took to social media to gauge the mood among Tottenham supporters once again.

The last time Spurs fans spoke about the UEFA Super Cup, there was a sense of optimism about the club’s chances, with many relishing the opportunity to lift two European trophies within the space of three months.

That belief has not waned. If anything, the confidence among the fanbase has only grown, with plenty believing Tottenham can get the better of PSG on the night.

One fan said: “We are a Premier League team I believe we will do better at least than Inter did tonight.”

Another stated: “Who knows what new players are at both clubs, who leaves, and who actually plays in the game? By August 13 we will see what each team looks like. I know we likely will, but in the past decade how serious do most clubs take this match? Winning it would be a great beginning to the season.”

Another supporter remained upbeat: “We are winning. They roll over defensive sides. We do not know how to defend anyway.”

One fan declared: “We are going to crush ‘em!” Another added: “Inter were frauds.” Another suggested being the underdog could benefit Spurs in the Super Cup: “Tottenham are the challengers, and I think it is easier to play with lower expectations. There is no shame in losing. Even Inter lost by five goals.”

Another fan said: “We do very well against teams that let us play like Manchester City, and do not play bully ball like most clubs do when they play Spurs. That is why we did well in Europe. I am not worried.”

Spurs beis lief fuelled by Destiny Udogie and transfer hopes

Indeed, the Tottenham fans have full belief that their side can put up a fight when they face Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Super Cup.

A victory for Tottenham Hotspur is not far-fetched, and if Spurs can get their summer transfer window right, they would certainly give themselves a fighting chance.

Cristian Romero has now addressed his future yet again, and the centre-back’s latest comments will give Tottenham fans optimism that he can be persuaded to stay.

The speculation linking Romero with a move to Atletico Madrid continues to intensify, with the La Liga club expected to make advances towards the centre-back over the coming days.

However, it appears, based on the reporting over the last couple of days, that the Lilywhites’ chances of keeping the centre-back may have improved.

Some sources have claimed that Daniel Levy is refusing to even negotiate with Atletico for Romero, with the La Liga club’s hopes of landing the centre-back alleged to be fading away.

Cristian Romero makes an encouraging claim about Tottenham’s future

Soon after winning the Europa League, Romero sent what appeared to be a farewell message to Spurs fans, but his subsequent comments have muddied the waters a bit.

Just a few days ago, Romero stressed the need for Tottenham to continue on this path and build on their Europa League success, which many saw as a promising sign that the centre-back wants to stay.

The 27-year-old has now given his clearest indication yet that he is ready to continue at N17, remarking that he is happy at Spurs, although he did admit his desire to play in Spain one day.

When asked about his future, Romero told Marca: “I would love to play in La Liga, it’s the one I’m missing. I’m going to give my best until the last day I’m here. I’m happy. They make me feel like an important player. Whatever the future holds for me, I’m welcome.”

Spurs and Atletico set for protracted negotiations for Romero

Meanwhile, another report in AS suggests that there will be ‘a week of negotiations’ between Tottenham and Atletico about Romero, with the Lilywhites not expected to make the deal easy for Diego Simeone’s men.

The view in Madrid is that the deal will be difficult to get done, with the club’s leaders viewing it as a ‘slow burn operation’ as they prepare to sound out Tottenham Hotspur.

The publication asserts that Atletico have no intention of meeting Spurs’ asking price of €70m (£59m) for the World Cup winner.

Tottenham Hotspur may have a chance to win another trophy apart from the UEFA Super Cup this summer, but a new report has suggested that they are expected to be denied that opportunity due to the cramped UEFA Schedule.

Ange Postecoglou and the Tottenham players created history in Bilbao by securing the club’s first European trophy in 41 years.

The competition also brings with it the added reward of direct passage into the group stages of the Champions League, and Tottenham’s coffers will be boosted significantly as a result.

However, the reward for the win does not end there as it also offers Tottenham a chance to win another prestigious trophy in just a few months: the UEFA Super Cup, where they will face European champions Paris Saint-Germain in Udine on August 13.

Tottenham may be denied an opportunity to play another final

Football.London point out that there is another final that Tottenham could be part of, with the Europa League winners and Sudamericana winners (South America’s equivalent) having faced each other in the past in the UEFA-CONMEBOL Club Challenge.

The competition was launched in 2023 as part of a renewed partnership between UEFA and CONMEBOL, with Sevilla triumphing over Ecuador’s Independiente del Valle on penalties

The event, which was a successor to the Supercopa Euroamericana, did not take place last year, but the current Sudamericana champions, Racing Club, are keen for it to go ahead this year.

Racing Club president Diego Milito has reportedly opened talks over reviving the UEFA-CONMEBOL Club Challenge to take on Tottenham, with a game in Argentina or the United States mooted.

However, the outlet explains that the main issue is finding time in the packed UEFA schedule, which is why the fixture is unlikely to be played this summer.

Tottenham may not be too keen on the UEFA-CONMEBOL Club Challenge

While no opportunity to win any trophy can be sneered at, the UEFA-CONMEBOL Club Challenge is certainly not a prestigious competition, lacking any history.

While it might generate revenue for the club, Spurs will be mindful of the fact that they have a packed pre-season schedule.

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.

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.

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.

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.
