Tottenham supporters may have raved about Mikey Moore, but the same cannot be said of Rangers fans.

Moore thrived in the Europa League last term, with Ange Postecoglou offering him increased playing time for the Lilywhites.

However, given the influx of quality at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the winger was allowed to depart on a season-long loan to Ibrox.

With things looking dire at the Glasgow club, the Rangers faithful have called for Moore to be sent back already.

Rangers fans rage at Mikey Moore’s performance for Rangers

Moore may have been tipped to flourish at Rangers, but he has suffered the same fate that has choked most of Russell Martin’s side.

The 18-year-old started for the Gers in their Europa League clash with Genk on home soil, but things did not go to plan.

Moore played on the right, but was hooked at half-time by Martin after Mohamed Diomande was sent off just before the break.

While the teenager was probably substituted due to the red card, the Ibrox faithful were not impressed by his performance.

One fan on X said: “Seven months left on Mikey Moore’s loan deal,” with a crying image underneath.

Another added: “I’ve never seen a player lose the ball as much as him as I did last night.”

Rangers have possessed some substantial names who have flopped in the past, including Amad Diallo, and there is concern that Moore could do the same.

One supporter said: “Mikey Moore will be another Fabio Silva, Amad Diallo, etc. Poor at Rangers and most likely to go on to have a decent career.”

Mikey Moore left Tottenham for the wrong club at the wrong time

Moore may still have a big Tottenham future despite what is transpiring north of the border.

Indeed, it seems that he is suffering the same ill-fate as the rest of his Rangers teammates, who can’t seem to do anything right.

While there has been the odd win at Ibrox, form and results have been dire, and Martin could soon face the sack.

However, it is a long season, and although the fans may not be on his side now, he has plenty of time to turn things around.

The most important thing for Moore to do is focus on his performances and block out any outside noise.

Whatever happens in Glasgow, there is every reason to believe that Moore can go on to enjoy a fruitful Tottenham career.

Wolves may appear an easy opponent on paper, but Tottenham will be up against it to bag all three points.

Thomas Frank has overseen an admirable start to his reign in North London, with the Lilywhites going strong in all competitions.

Spurs defeated Doncaster Rovers 3-0 in their midweek Carabao Cup fixture and return to Premier League action against Vitor Pereira’s side on Saturday night.

While the Black Country club are stranded at the bottom of the table, they have been a consistent nuisance for Tottenham.

This article includes exclusive comments from Lilywhite Rose owner John Wenham.

Tottenham have a wretched record against Wolves

Spurs face Wolves at the peculiar time of 8pm on Saturday due to their upcoming Champions League trip to Bodo/Glimt on Tuesday.

If you could pick a game against any Premier League side right now, then Pereira’s side would be towards the top of the list.

However, Lilywhite Rose owner Wenham – speaking exclusively to Tottenham News – has explained why it won’t be so straightforward.

“Our record at home to Wolves is diabolical. I can only think of one home win the entire time since we’ve been there [Tottenham Hotspur Stadium],” Wenham said.

“So it’s going to be a really difficult game, make no mistake about it. Wolves are like our bogey team. The equivalent of us going to Manchester City. They’ll be feeling very, very confident about the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, being so successful there.

“We’re going to have to grind out a win. So on that basis, I think we’ll have to go basically full strength and just get the job done.”

Thomas Frank confirms key injury news ahead of Wolves test

Frank confirmed that Tottenham will be without several key players, making his team selection more straightforward.

Randal Kolo Muani and Dominic Solanke will both miss the encounter through injury, meaning that Richarlison will surely lead the line.

Mathys Tel started up front against Doncaster, but did little to convince his head coach that he is worthy of another chance.

However, Frank faces a key decision with Xavi Simons, who came off the bench against Brighton before starting against Doncaster.

The Netherlands international started on the left in the win over West Ham, with large sections of supporters calling for him to be played centrally.

Indeed, Tottenham’s head coach listened, but could opt to deploy the 22-year-old back on the left this Saturday.

With Wolves desperate for a first point of the Premier League season, the Lilyhwhites will have to be on top form in N17.

Daniel Levy’s departure from Tottenham has sparked plenty of speculation in recent weeks.

The former executive chairman’s time with the Lilywhites was brought to a close at the start of September, and a flurry of speculation has since followed regarding a potential takeover.

Brooklyn Earick is heading a potential £4.5billion bid for Tottenham, with the American entrepreneur keen to take on a controlling stake from the Lewis family.

Fresh information is continuing to emerge regarding Levy’s departure, and the latest revelation certainly doesn’t reflect well on the hierarchy in N17.

Daniel Levy wasn’t allowed to retrieve his possessions by Tottenham

Levy was the source of plenty of frustration at Tottenham over the years, as his uncompromising negotiating style played a factor in several failed transfer pursuits during his reign.

MORE SPURS STORIES

However, he still oversaw a dramatic turnaround in the club’s fortunes behind the scenes, and there can be no doubt about the fact that they would be in a much worse position commercially if not for Levy.

He was influential in the plans for the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and he played a huge role in turning them into one of the world’s most recognisable clubs.

With that in mind, it is extremely hard not to feel sympathetic towards him, especially considering it has now been revealed that Levy wasn’t even allowed to collect his possessions before leaving, according to The Athletic.

His departure was so unceremonious that he is said to have had “no idea” that he was about to be dismissed when he entered the building on the morning of his exit.

Levy and his wife, who also worked at the club, then had their belongings returned to them in a van some time after his departure.

That is simply shocking treatment towards a man who had done so much for Tottenham, and the rest of the hierarchy should be ashamed of the way that the situation was handled.

Spurs should have dismissed Levy after Europa League win

The timing of Levy’s exit from Tottenham was bizarre to say the least, given that it came just days after the close of the summer transfer window.

The circumstances surrounding his exit are simply not fair by any means when you consider his impact at the club over the years.

It would have been far more dignified for him to leave after the Europa League triumph back in May, when Ange Postecoglou was also relieved of his duties.

That would have represented a good opportunity for the N17 outfit to move into a new era both on and off the pitch, but instead, they are now facing all of this speculation while trying to lay the groundwork for a successful season.

It simply could not have come at a worse time for Thomas Frank, who will be desperately hoping that his work isn’t derailed by events behind the scenes.

Brooklyn Earick has just shared an eye-catching post on his Instagram account amid suggestions of a potential Tottenham takeover.

The Lilywhites have been shrouded in speculation in recent weeks following the departure of Daniel Levy, with the future of the club firmly up in the air.

ENIC are adamant that they don’t want to sell Tottenham at the moment, but that has done little to stem the suggestions that a deal could be in the pipeline in the near future.

Earick is the latest person to be linked with a potential takeover in N17, and he has just shared a post on Instagram that will have Spurs fans on the edge of their seats.

Brooklyn Earick has been at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Earick is heading a potential £4.5billion bid for Tottenham that has emerged in the last few days, in what could be a record sale in the Premier League.

MORE SPURS STORIES

The American entrepreneur is understood to be pledging a staggering fee of around £3.3bn to buy the entire club, and a further £1.2bn to be invested into the playing squad in North London.

The 41-year-old has now fuelled speculation surrounding a potential deal even further by posting a photo from inside the home dressing room at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on his Instagram story.

Earick chose to accompany the photo with a countdown clock, which is ticking down until 24 October, the date which has been set by Spurs for him and his consortium to declare a genuine intention to buy the club.

“COYS” was also added as part of the countdown clock.

Brooklyn Earick takeover news is hugely exciting for Spurs fans

News of Earick’s potential takeover at Tottenham will be music to the ears of the fanbase, given that he is already proposing an eye-watering investment into the playing squad.

The Lilywhites faithful will already be dreaming of the stars that they could target with that £1.2bn, which would surely be a game-changing amount of money for Spurs and their fortunes in the Premier League.

If completed, Earick’s takeover would surpass that of Todd Boehly at Chelsea as the new record in English football, and would immediately set the North Londoners as one of the world’s richest clubs.

That is a proposition that will undoubtedly delight the fanbase, who have been starved of success in recent generations.

Everything we know about Harry Kane’s Bayern Munich release clause as Tottenham plot stunning move

Tottenham fans could be dreaming of an extraordinary homecoming for Harry Kane at Tottenham.

With renewed takeover speculation, it begs the question if Tottenham could re-sign Kane next summer just three years after he departed for Bayern Munich for a reported £87 million.

Kane’s transer could take Spurs to the next level, and a deal may be more reasonable than any fan could have imagined when he first moved on.

Bayern Munich are worried this may be Kane’s last season in Germany, and while they successfully replaced a Robert Lewandowski-shaped hole, life after Kane may prove to be trickier.

Kane’s situation

Kane signed a four-year deal at Bayern and committed his future to the Bavarian club until 2027 as their highest earner and number nine.

MORE SPURS STORIES

Now, with two years left on his contract, the 32-year-old could be set to catch a return flight back to Tottenham.

Initially, the paperwork listed Kane’s release fee at £67 million, but Bild reported this figure will drop by over £10 million next summer.

Tottenham fans would welcome Kane back to the club if a deal is reached and their manager Thomas Frank would also have open arms.

In a press conference, Frank was asked about the possibility of Kane’s return, and he said: “If he wants to join us, he is more than welcome.”

Bayern Munich have also made their stance clear with sporting director Max Eberl speaking to Sport Bild and he said: “Kane is old enough to make his own decisions, whether it’s a clause or no clause, whatever – if he says he wants to make a decision, then he’ll make it, as he showed at Tottenham. But our wish is, of course, to be very, very successful with Harry this season and in the future!”

Kane finally got his hands on some silverware while in Germany, lifting the Bundesliga at the end of last season, swiftly followed by the German Super Cup.

The trophies finally came, and his goals never stopped, with the England captain netting 98 goals in just 103 games.

Eyes on Premier League goalscoring record

Alan Shearer currently holds the record for most Premier League goals with 260.

Kane is in second place on 213, and if a move back to the English top-flight was to materialise, then that record will be more than within his reach.

At 32 years old, although seemingly getting better year on year, it could be now or never if Shearer is to be overtaken.

There will be a lot of admirers trying to convince Kane to join their project but a return back to Spurs to become the best goalscorer in the league’s history may be too hard to turn down.

Who is Tottenham’s new shareholder Andrew Ashcroft? From airline arrest to billionaire father

Tottenham continue to see changes to their ranks behind the scenes following the departure of Daniel Levy.

The Lilywhites chairman departed his post after 25 years at the helm in N17, a period which transformed the club and saw the building of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

There has been huge speculation that ENIC may consider selling Tottenham in the weeks since his exit, but the majority owners are still clear in their stance that the club is not for sale.

However, that hasn’t prevented the changes from continuing behind the scenes, and one particular new shareholder appears to have a very eye-catching past.

Andrew Ashcroft buys 3.4% stake in Tottenham

ENIC remain adamant that they won’t sell Tottenham, as they seem intent on keeping hold of their controlling stake in the club.

MORE SPURS STORIES

However, a minority share of the Lilywhites has now fallen into new hands, with businessman and hotelier Andrew Ashcroft having recently purchased a 3.4% stake in the club, according to The Guardian.

He is understood to have purchased just over eight million shares in the club, which is estimated to have cost around £100million, based on recent estimations of Spurs’ valuation.

Tottenham’s new shareholder is the son of billionaire donor Lord Ashcroft, who himself is a long-standing shareholder of the N17 outfit.

It remains unclear whether Lord Ashcroft has had his shares bought out by his son, or whether the family are essentially now in possession of double their previous stake.

Ashcroft was previously based in Belize until 2021, and owned a hotel in the Central American country.

He has since moved to the Turks and Caicos Islands. A concerning moment in his past came in 2019, when he was arrested for public intoxication after an American Airlines flight was left unable to take off due to his behaviour.

Spurs need takeover uncertainty to end

The speculation surrounding a potential takeover at Tottenham has gone on for several weeks now, and it could threaten to derail their season if it continues for much longer.

The Lewis family have strenuously denied any intention of selling the club on numerous occasions, but that has done little to put a stop to any of the conversations surrounding a potential deal.

From Thomas Frank’s point of view, it is certainly far from an ideal situation for him to work under as he continues to try and turn the team around on the pitch.

So far, Tottenham have made an excellent start on the pitch, and they won’t want developments behind the scenes to detract from that at all.

Pedro Porro could be set for a surprise omission from the Tottenham team to face Wolves on Saturday night.

The Lilywhites are aiming to continue their impressive start to the new Premier League season, and could potentially go second in the table with a victory.

Tottenham breezed past Doncaster in the Carabao Cup with a 3-0 victory on Wednesday night, in what was a welcome opportunity to hand minutes to some of the players on the fringes of the squad.

Thomas Frank will surely be turning back towards his first-choice options for this weekend’s clash, and with that in mind, Tottenham News predicts the XI that will line up against Vitor Pereira’s visitors.

Pedro Porro rested for Tottenham as Xavi Simons starts

Mohammed Kudus was excellent for Tottenham in their 2-2 draw with Brighton on their last Premier League outing, and he is one of several players who are surely destined to return to the starting XI this weekend.

MORE SPURS STORIES

However, there could still be a couple of notable changes from the group that lined up from the start at the Amex Stadium.

Porro was a surprise inclusion from the start against Doncaster, but he could finally be about to drop to the bench for Saturday’s encounter.

He has been an excellent performer for Spurs so far this season, having completed 75% of his passes and ranking second in the team for both key passes and interceptions, but he is badly in need of a rest.

The Spain international has missed just 20 minutes of competitive football all season for Spurs, and many expected him to be given the night off in the cup in midweek.

The opportunity to rest the 26-year-old could now be taken against Wolves, given that the Lilywhites face an important Champions League trip to Bodo/Glimt on Tuesday night.

That could see Djed Spence revert to his more natural right-back position, with Destiny Udogie manning the left flank.

Elsewhere in the side, Xavi Simons is likely to come back in from the off, with Wilson Odobert set to drop to the bench after starting against Brighton.

Richarlison has huge opportunity vs Wolves

Tottenham will be without Dominic Solanke and Randal Kolo Muani for Saturday’s game, with the pair still sidelined through injury.

As a result, the responsibility to lead the line will once again fall to Richarlison, and he has another huge opportunity in front of him to cement his place in the team even further.

The Brazilian has had a bright start to the season, and already has the chance to equal his Premier League goal tally from last season if he finds the back of the net against Wolves.

Fitness issues have prevented Frank from using either of his other two options so far, but if Richarlison sustains his good form, then the boss will be hard pushed to drop him, even when Solanke and Kolo Muani return.

Tottenham could be lining up very differently next season if their proposed takeover comes to fruition.

The Lilywhites completed some eye-catching deals this summer, with Xavi Simons among the headline additions for Spurs.

However, after news of Brooklyn Earick’s planned £4.5billion takeover of Tottenham, the North London club could be completing even greater transfers.

With £1.2bn of that substantial figure to be set aside for player budget, the Lilywhites could have the pick of world football.

Spurs could line up controversial move for Emi Martinez

Tottenham may take one look at Martinez and shudder due to his links with Arsenal, but there is no questioning his talent.

MORE SPURS STORIES

The Aston Villa goalkeeper already has a wealth of individual accolades to his name, as well as the ultimate team prize, the World Cup.

While the 33-year-old was linked with a Villa Park exit this summer, a move never materialised, but he seemingly wants out.

Furthermore, Martinez is the king of controversy, and what would move would cause more of a stir than a transfer to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium?

If the Lilywhites want to win more trophies, then a move for a world-class goalkeeper is a must for the North London outfit.

Pedri would take Thomas Frank’s midfield to another level

Tottenham may be eyeing a permanent move for Joao Palhinha, but there is another talent they should also be chasing.

Pedri is widely regarded as one of the leading central-midfielders in world football, having risen to the top at Barcelona.

At just 22 years of age, the Tegueste-born playmaker has proven himself on the club and international stage and is simply irresistible on his day.

While he would cost well in excess of £100m, that would not be a problem for Spurs if they want to elevate their midfield.

Tottenham can land Pedro Porro upgrade from PSG

Porro has been a solid performer for Spurs, but with a fresh investment, the North London side can aim higher.

If the Liywhites want to set their sights on the Premier League or even the Champions League, then look no further than Achraf Hakimi.

The PSG right-back was the highest-ranked defender in the Ballon d’Or rankings, finishing sixth on the esteemed list.

Hakimi has won trophies in four of Europe’s elite leagues and must now complete his collection with a move to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

At PSG, the Morocco international has won it all, but he could now make history in the Premier League.

Tottenham can end Rodrygo’s Real Madrid nightmare

Rodrygo is one of the attainable options on Spurs’ list, considering their prior interest and the rumours that he is unsettled in Madrid.

The Brazil international forged a devastating attack with Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappe, but is unfavoured under Xabi Alonso.

Indeed, the Lilywhites would be wise to reignite their interest if a takeover comes to fruition, as they could pay him what he desires.

While Arsenal, Man City and Liverpool have been credited with interest in the past, a move to N17 would be the smart choice.

Harry Kane homecoming is now a reality for Tottenham

Kane is looking like a more realistic option for Spurs now that a takeover could be on the horizon.

The England international departed for Bayern Munich just over two years ago, and he has lifted the trophy he desperately desired.

Indeed, it has been reported that the Lilywhites hold a priority to sign the striker, putting them in an enviable position.

Moreover, it has been made no secret that Kane has his eyes on Alan Shearer’s Premier League goalscoring record, strengthening the need for him to return to N17.

While some of these potential signings feel like a dream, they could soon become a reality for Tottenham.

£70m ace to sign six-year deal after ‘flirting’ with Tottenham transfer, terms will be done in days

Tottenham made the most of their summer transfer window by adding eight players to their ranks.

The Lilywhites needed to overhaul their squad following the appointment of Thomas Frank, and they were able to do so with some shrewd work in the market throughout the summer.

Mohammed Kudus already looks like an inspired signing for Tottenham, with the former West Ham star showing ample quality in the early stages of his time in N17.

The North Londoners have made an excellent start to the new Premier League season, but they are now set to be left wondering what could have been on one of their failed transfer pursuits.

Savinho set for six-year Manchester City deal after Tottenham links

Spurs were heavily linked with a move for Savinho during the summer transfer window, but they ultimately failed to get a deal over the line for the Manchester City winger.

MORE SPURS STORIES

The Brazilian made a bright start to his career at the Etihad Stadium last term, but was seemingly heading for the exit as Frank and Co. eyed up a deal.

However, any suggestion of the 21-year-old leaving the Citizens anytime soon is set to be eradicated, with him now set to sign a new six-year contract, according to the Daily Mail.

City are already in discussion with Savinho’s team about a potential deal, and the expectation is that terms will be finalised and agreed within the “coming days.”

Tottenham are understood to have “flirted” with a move for the former Girona wideman over the summer, but were ultimately put off by the asking price of £70million that was quoted to them by their Premier League rivals.

Daniel Levy to blame for more Spurs frustration

Savinho was one of many players that Spurs missed out on over the summer, with the likes of Antoine Semenyo and most notably Eberechi Eze also being heavily linked with a move that ultimately didn’t materialise.

Daniel Levy stepped away from activity at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium following the conclusion of the window, but his fingerprints remained all over the Lilywhites’ work in the market.

On the face of it, they had an impressive summer, and there are already strong signs to suggest that they have made some shrewd investments in the likes of Kudus and Joao Palhinha.

However, the trend of Spurs and Levy missing out on their big targets continued, and Savinho was a firm part of that.

He is a huge talent for the future, and his imminent new deal at City is only going to rub salt into the wounds from a Tottenham perspective.

The future ownership of Tottenham Hotspur has been thrown into doubt since Daniel Levy resigned as chairman earlier this month.

Levy was removed after 25 years at Tottenham, sparking a battle for control in North London.

In his time at Tottenham, Levy increased Spurs’ worth to over £4billion but was widely criticised for failing to turn financial success off the field to success on it.

Levy’s exit has led to speculation that Joe Lewis‘ family are preparing for a potential sale of their majority stake in the club.

Tottenham have rejected takeover proposal from American consortium

In a statement on Friday, the ENIC group, the majority shareholders, stated it has ‘received and unequivocally rejected’ an informal expression of interest by a consortium led by former DJ and NASA employee and tech billionaire, Brooklyn Earick.

Sky Sports reported that a source close to the Lewis family, who possess the controlling stake, said: “This unsolicited and unnecessary interest does nothing to change the family’s resolve and commitment to do whatever it takes to drive success on the pitch.

“The club is not for sale.”

According to The Sun, Earick heads a US consortium wanting to buy Tottenham for £4.5billion.

Thanks to the Lewis family’s response to his bid, Earick’s consortium now has until 5pm on October 24 to announce any intention to buy the third-placed Premier League club.

Thomas Frank not phased by rumours of takeover

Since winning the Europa League, Spurs have wanted to use their victory as a platform.

They have started their league campaign in ideal fashion as Thomas Frank‘s side sit third in the table, and kick-started their Champions League campaign with a 1-0 victory against Villarreal this week.

When asked about his relationship with the Lewis family, Frank said: “I’ve said two or three times before, I’ve had some interactions with the Lewis family. It’s been good.”

While rumours of new riches would be welcome by widespread Spurs fans, they will take comfort that their current manager has a working relationship with their owners and is prioritising their performance on the pitch.
