Tottenham midfielder Giovani Lo Celso has been linked with a move away from the club this summer.

The 28-year-old midfielder has struggled for regular game time at the North London club and he played a total of 597 first-team minutes for them last season. The Argentine international needs to play more at this stage of his career and leaving Tottenham would be ideal for him.

The player has been linked with clubs like Aston Villa and Lazio.

It appears that Spurs are prepared to sell him for a fee of around €10 million, but his wage demands could scupper any potential move.

The Argentine attacking midfielder is reportedly demanding wages of around €4-5 million (€90-96k-a-week) per season and it will be interesting to see if any club is willing to pay up.

According to a report from Gazzetta Dello Sport via SportWitness, Lazio are unwilling to pay that kind of money for the player. Lo Celso will have to lower his wage demands in order for the move to go through. Tottenham will be looking to get him off their wage bill and bring in a quality replacement who can help them improve.

They will hope that the player takes a big cut in order to seal a move away from the club.

The 28-year-old has shown his quality in multiple European leagues in the past and there is no doubt that he is good enough to play for the top clubs. He is still very much at the peak of his powers and he could be a key player for clubs like Aston Villa and Lazio. It remains to be seen where he ends up.

Tottenham Hotspur winger Dejan Kulusevki has been linked with a move away from the club this summer.

According to a report from Calciomercato, Napoli are keen on signing the Swedish international winger and they are hoping that the player’s relationship with Antonio Conte could help push the transfer through this summer.

Napoli are expected to get rid of Jesper Lindstrom, who is headed to Everton, and they are hoping to replace the Denmark international with Kulusevski.

The Swedish swinger has been an important player for Tottenham since joining the club from Juventus, but he has had an underwhelming campaign this past season.

It will be interesting to see if Tottenham are prepared to sanction his departure in the coming months.

The 24-year-old winger has not shown any signs of pushing for a move away from Tottenham and Napoli will have to convince the player and the North London outfit regarding a potential move.

Kulusevski is versatile enough to operate on both flanks, and he can slot in as the attacking midfielder as well. He will add goals and creativity in the final third and he could be a key player for Napoli in the coming seasons. The winger has played in Italy before and he should be able to settle in quickly and make an instant impact for Napoli.

With that said, Tottenham are already lacking in depth in the attacking unit, and it seems highly unlikely that they will sanction the departure of a talented winger, who is likely to improve further with coaching and experience.

Former Spurs manager, Antonio Conte signed him for the North London club, and it remains to be seen whether he can play a key role in convincing the player to move to Napoli.

The proximity of Spurs’ facilities to Thompson’s home played a significant role in his decision to join the club.

Thompson’s impressive skill set and potential have set him apart from his peers.

While the financial details of the transfer are relatively modest, the value he is expected to bring to Tottenham’s youth setup is considerable.

His versatility in multiple attacking roles positions him as a promising addition to Spurs’ long-term plans.

The club’s dedication to nurturing young talent is clearly demonstrated through this acquisition, as they aim to provide Thompson with the ideal environment and resources to grow and potentially make his mark on the first team in a few years’ time.

Tottenham fans are excited to track Thompson’s progress and hopeful that he will evolve into a key player, continuing the club’s tradition of developing and promoting exceptional young talents.

Tottenham keeping tabs on Murillo ahead of potential move

Tottenham are closely monitoring Nottingham Forest defensive star Murillo ahead of a potential transfer.

The North London club are always on the lookout for players who can further bolster their squad. They have already done some quality transfer business in the ongoing window by extending Timo Werner’s loan and signing Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray.

They are working hard to add more quality to help Ange Postecoglou’s team as they hope for a top-four finish this time around. The Australian manager wants more depth at the back, he wants to sign another centre-back despite having added Micky van de Ven and Radu Dragusin in the previous two windows.

According to a report from The Athletic, the North London club are scouting Nottingham Forest sensation Murillo who was exceptional last season. He was adjudged Nottingham’s player of the season in a campaign where they successfully avoided relegation.

While he still has four years left on his current contract, the Tricky Trees came into the window believing that they might have to sell the Brazilian defender to comply with Premier League’s profit and sustainability regulations. It did represent an opportunity for clubs who have been monitoring him for a while.

Tottenham are one of the clubs who have been scouting the 22-year-old who is valued between £60 to £70 by Nottingham. While they might have addressed their PSR issues for the time being, Spurs could still knock on their doors as they continue their hunt for another defensive signing which seems important to Postecoglou’s plans. However, the high valuation of Murillo could be a major a problem for Spurs.

Tottenham are ready to battle West Ham United for the services of Brentford star striker Ivan Toney.

Signing a new number nine remains a top priority for Tottenham Hotspur this summer. While they have been linked with multiple top stars, Ivan Toney is quite high on their wishlist.

According to a report from GIVEMESPORT, the North London club will have to square up against rivals West Ham United for the services of the Brentford striker.

Toney had an exceptional 2022/23 season which put him on the radar of multiple top clubs. He was expected to be on the move last summer but a ban for illegal betting disrupted the plans. He returned to action at the start of the year and with his contract at the Bees running out in 12 months, he has his heart set on a move to a bigger club.

Since multiple top clubs were keen on signing him, Brentford were hoping for a bidding war in an attempt to raise £60 million to £80 million from his sale. But, with Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea taking a backseat, the price now has come down to £50 million. The Bees want to ensure they cash in on him this summer having already secured a replacement in Igor Thiago.

Tottenham and West Ham are the only two clubs who remain in the race for his services. The Hammers are in desperate need to reinforce their attack with both their strikers on the wrong side of 30. They want someone who can take over from 34-year-old Michail Antonio.

As far as Spurs are concerned, they need a star striker who can lead their attack after deciding against signing one last summer post the departure of Harry Kane.

Tottenham are willing to battle the Hammers as they believe Toney’s arrival will give Ange Postecoglou the freedom to use Son Heung-Min out wide on the left flank where he is at his best.

Tottenham are interested in acquiring the services of free agent Adrien Rabiot.

Tottenham have been quite busy in the ongoing transfer window. They have already made some great moves this summer and according to TuttoJuve, the North London club are now looking to push for the services of Adrien Rabiot who has parted ways with Juventus and is currently a free agent.

The report suggests that the French international is closing in on a move to the Premier League where Tottenham as well as rivals Arsenal are both keen on his signature. Rabiot went from strength to strength after making the move to Juventus from PSG in the summer of 2019.

The 29-year-old was one of the important players at the Italian club and they were keen on extending his stay at the club. But, his contract ran out at the end of last month and they have confirmed his departure from the club.

With Rabiot available for free, there is no shortage of interest in his services.

Tottenham are looking to sign a new midfielder before the end of the transfer window and they seem keen on adding Rabiot to their squad as he will bring in a lot of experience. Given how consistent he has been over the past few seasons, Ange Postecoglou will have a reliable figure in midfield.

Pierre-Emile Højbjerg’s future at the club is uncertain and the French international could be a great replacement on a free transfer. But, signing him won’t be easy as there will be significant competition for his services.

Tottenham nearly signed Anthony Lozano in 2010, a move the Honduran forward recently described as a significant heartbreak.

Back then, Lozano was with Olimpia in Honduras and was close to a dream transfer to the Premier League.

At just 17, Lozano impressed then-manager Harry Redknapp during a training stint with Spurs’ reserve team.

However, financial disagreements between Tottenham and his Honduran club, Olimpia, derailed the deal.

The young player was left devastated, forced to return to Olimpia without realising his Premier League aspirations.

Speaking to TUDN, Lozano reflected on the failed deal, stating:

“Honestly, yes (it was hard), it wasn’t because of me, but because of the club, Olimpia, I’ve never talked about it… but I went with enthusiasm, I was 17 years old, it was a trial, I was supposedly signed, I did the tests, I had the contract, but when it happened, the person who traveled with me from the club said that the amounts were not the agreed ones.

“I couldn’t stay on the team because of money. I was jumping up and down (with excitement), but when I arrived and the contract wasn’t signed, I left the room almost crying. It wasn’t because of my ability, but more because of financial issues.”

Lozano’s career took him to Spain in 2011, signing with Valencia and then loaned to Alcoyano in Segunda División. After a stint with Valencia’s reserves, he returned to Olimpia.

In 2017, Lozano joined FC Barcelona B, making history as the first Honduran to represent the Catalan club.

His career continued with a move to Girona FC in 2018, where he played in La Liga, and later to Cádiz CF, playing a crucial role in their promotion to the top flight.

Now 31, Lozano is playing for Liga MX side Santos Laguna, continuing his professional journey.

Despite the missed opportunity with Tottenham, he has enjoyed a decent career across various leagues.

£60m Tottenham ace confirms interest in moving abroad; Spurs ready to sell him – report

Tottenham striker Richarlison has been linked with a move away this summer, with reports claiming that the club are open to selling him for the right offer.

And while initially the Brazilian dismissed the rumours, insisting that he will be at Spurs next season, it appears that he has had a change of heart.

Richarlison has now expressed interest in moving to the Saudi Pro League, indicating a possible departure from the Lilywhites this summer.

That is according to the latest from HITC, who claim that Spurs are ready to approve the sale of the Brazilian centre-forward, aiming to recoup the £60 million paid to Everton in 2022.

The report claims that the striker has confirmed his interest in moving to Saudi Arabia to the Saudi Pro League, who will now step up their interest in the coming weeks.

Despite his decent form last season, with 11 goals and 4 assists in 28 Premier League appearances, his overall performance at Spurs has been inconsistent.

Since joining Tottenham, Richarlison has scored 15 goals and provided 8 assists in 66 appearances across all competitions over two seasons. His impact has not fully met the high expectations placed upon him upon his arrival. (Transfermarkt)

With a contract extending until June 2027, Tottenham view the sale of Richarlison as an opportunity to fund the signing of his replacement striker during the ongoing transfer window.

The club are keen on bolstering their attack and are planning to sign a top class striker to fill the void left by Harry Kane.

The Lilywhites are expected to welcome bids that match their initial investment in Richarlison.

Tottenham are close to striking a deal with Aston Villa for Jacob Ramsey.

Spurs have been strongly linked with a move for the Villa midfielder in recent weeks.

It was previously reported that Spurs made an offer for the player which included Giovani Lo Celso as a deal sweetener but saw the bid rejected.

However, the links have continued and it appears that the club are now closing in on a deal.

As per the latest from TyC Sports, Spurs are locked in negotiations with Aston Villa and a deal for Ramsey ‘will soon be agreed’.

The deal will see Lo Celso go the other way in addition of a £19m fee.

This will be a significant signing for Spurs who have been looking to bolster their midfield this summer.

They have already signed Archie Gray who looks to be part of Ange’s immediate plans.

Ramsey could be another great addition to his side.

His ability to play both as a number 8 and number 10 showcases his versatility and unique skill set, making him an attractive option for the Lilywhites.
