Tottenham Hotspur

The pair are pictured for the first time in training as Roberto De Zerbi and his coaching team continued preparations for the trip to Forest in the Premier League on Saturday (3pm UK).

Both players arrived from Chelsea on Monday - central defender Tosin has a wealth of experience after his time at Stamford Bridge and Fulham while Misha, who joins us on loan, shone under Roberto's management at Shakhtar Donetsk.

Following the closure of the summer transfer window, we have today (Thursday 3 September) submitted our squad to the Premier League.

Each season, competing clubs must submit a list of a maximum 25 senior players (over the age of 21) to the Premier League. Of that list, there must be at least eight 'home grown' players included while the remaining 17 players can be non 'home grown'.

We also submit an Under-21s list which can contain an unlimited number of players who were born on or after 1 January, 2005, and are contracted to the club. This list contains first team players Archie Gray, Lucas Bergvall and Mathys Tel who meet the criteria of 'Under-21 players'.

Our Under-21s’ home Premier League 2 fixture against Manchester City has been brought forward 24 hours and will now take place on Saturday 19 September.

Kick-off remains at 1pm at Stevenage FC.

Tickets will be available in advance via Stevenage’s ticketing website or at the stadium on the day of the game.

You couldn't ask for two better legends to preview our trip to Forest in the Premier League on Saturday (3pm UK) - Michael Dawson and Andy Reid.

Both came through Forest's youth system before joining us together in January, 2005. 'Daws', our future captain, made his debut for Forest aged 18 and made 91 appearances before switching to Spurs. 'Reidy' was also 18 and scored on his Forest debut, the first of 160 appearances before heading to N17.

Capped 29 times by the Republic of Ireland, Reidy moved to Charlton in the summer of 2006. Daws went on to make 324 appearances for us over nine years, 2005-2014, winning the League Cup and helping take us into the Champions League for the first time in 2010.

Now 44, Andy went on to make 451 career appearances and returned to Forest to coach in their Academy in 2021.

Daws, now 42, had the final three years of his career back at Forest after a spell at Hull City, taking him to 579 career appearances. He's a popular as ever as a Club Ambassador and a regular on Sky Sports' Soccer Saturday - where he'll watch this game this weekend.

Both are also outstanding pundits - Daws on Sky Sports, Andy a regular on BBC Radio 5 Live...

Michael Dawson

"Forest come into this on the back of a good point at Anfield last week. They've a new manager in Oliver Glasner, a different formation, wing-backs, but what I do know is we'll have to keep Morgan Gibbs-White quiet, a player who is so important for Forest. I always say, it's always about what we do away from home, trying to get a good performance and get some points on the board, that's what it comes down to. We saw an improvement in the performance against Newcastle last week, but it still is about getting points on the board and Roberto De Zerbi and the guys will know that. I'm expecting another tough game, just like last season when Spurs went to the City Ground, great atmosphere, I'm looking forward to it - and I'll be watching on Soccer Saturday."

Andy Reid

Forest Academy coach since 2021

"I'm expecting an interesting game. Obviously, a lot of new signings have come in at Tottenham, so let's see how they settle in and how the team starts to take shape. There's no doubt about it, some quality players have come in. Have they gelled yet as a team? I think it remains to be seen. So, it will be interesting, to see how that goes. From the Forest point of view, new manager, new approach. There's been some additions to the squad but generally stayed the same. Oliver Glasner has a very set way of playing with a lot of non-negotiables within that, so, two contrasting styles in some ways. I think that makes for an interesting game. I'm expecting it to be very competitive. I'm expecting the atmosphere to be good. Looking at the game - I don't think there'll be loads and loads of chances. I think the team that can take their chances at the right times could be the team that goes on to win. The timing of the goals, the first goal, could be key to it. If Forest gets the first goal, the crowd will get right up for it. Then, it could be difficult for Tottenham. If Tottenham gets the first goal, that could make it difficult for Forest. So, that first goal could be the key to the game."

The 16-year-old midfielder joins our Academy from Wolverhampton Wanderers and links up with our Under-18s as a first-year scholar.

A talented central midfielder, Kwasi made his Under-18 Premier League debut for Wolves at the age of just 14 in January, 2025, and featured regularly at that level last season while still a schoolboy.

He also stepped up to make his Under-21s debut against Monaco in the Premier League International Cup in February.

On the international stage, he has been capped by England at Under-16 level to date.

Welcome, Kwasi!

Our opening game of the WSL campaign sees us take on West Ham United at Brisbane Road (kick-off 12noon). The Hammers finished 10th last season after a much-improved second half of the season, with Rita Guarino eyeing for more improvement in her first full term as the Head Coach.

Laia Codina

The Spain international arrived in east London this summer following three campaigns at Arsenal. A decorated individual on the domestic and international stage, the centre-back has won the UEFA Women’s Champions League three times – in her spells with the Gunners and Barcelona – plus the Spanish league title on three occasions and the Subway Players Cup while, for Spain, she played an integral role in their 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup success. Describing herself as an aggressive player upon joining the Hammers, one of her main strengths is the composure on the ball in the build-up phase – a part of her game that she has brought to England from growing up in Barcelona.

Katie Zelem

Having initially joined the Hammers on loan from London City Lionesses in January, 2026, the experienced midfielder made her move permanent this summer. A player that can operate anywhere in the midfield, who is comfortable playing on both feet, the England international has racked up an impressive 135 appearances in the Women’s Super League across her spells with Liverpool, Manchester United, London City Lionesses and West Ham United, winning the league twice with Liverpool at the beginning of her career. The 30-year-old also boasts leadership skills on the pitch, previously captaining Manchester United to the Women’s FA Cup trophy in 2024.

Kelly Gago

Another signing that has arrived at West Ham United this summer. The France international made the move to east London after 18 months in the Women’s Super League with Everton, where she scored 10 goals in 30 games. A physical and powerful striker, whose pace can cause chaos amongst defenders, Gago made an impact in at St Etienne – the second club in her career – scoring 44 goals across her five seasons at the French club, helping them to promotion to the Premiere Ligue in 2020/21. Having represented her nation at the UEFA Women’s Euro in 2025, the 27-year-old links up with international team-mate Viviane Asseyi and will certainly add another goalscoring threat to the Hammers’ frontline.

Score Prediction | Spurs Women vs West Ham United Women

Scout will be using their expertise to provide advice and gameweek tips, which should prove useful in ensuring you win your mini-leagues.

In their third instalment of the season, Scout have identified some impressive data points from our previous Premier League clash against Newcastle United to help you stay ahead of the game on which Spurs players FPL managers should include in their team.

Best of Spurs

We had 17 shots at goal in Gameweek 2, averaging one every 5.2 minutes, with 10 different players in shooting positions.

Pedro Porro (£5.5m) had four shots, more than any other Spurs player, with one classified as a big chance. The defender also supplied four crosses.

Jan Paul van Hecke (£5.0m) also had a big chance as well as coming close, for the second gameweek in a row, to achieving the defensive contribution threshold. Defenders need 10 defensive contributions to register the two Defensive Contribution points, JP registered eight, the same as our captain Micky van de Ven (£5.0m).

Rodrigo Bentancur (£5.5m) also came close to hitting the defensive contribution threshold. Midfielders need 12 defensive contributions for the two additional points. Rodrigo missed the threshold by one, with 11 defensive contributions.

Spotlight: Omar Marmoush (£7.0m)

After signing last week, Omar made his debut for us in Gameweek 2. Our new forward had three shots in the match against Newcastle and he created three chances for his new teammates.

Only Mateus Fernandes (£5.9m) has created more chances for us this season than the Egyptian international, who was involved in 27% of the chances that we created during Gameweek 2. He also had the largest chance involvement share (shots and assists).

Omar, who was involved in 35% of the chances we had against Newcastle, made 16 Premier League appearances for his former club Man City last season. He registered three goals and three assists in the league, registering an FPL point every 13.8 minutes.

Spurs’ most popular FPL asset

Pedro is the most transferred in Spurs player this week, with his on-field match positioning in Gameweek 2 catching the attention of FPL managers.

During Gameweek 2, Pedro played on the right wing, with his average position well inside the opposition’s half.

When defenders play out of position in the attacking positions, this increases their FPL appeal.

Pedro also had four shots in Gameweek 2 with one of them classified as a big chance.

Last season he registered four attacking returns and nine clean sheets, as well as 18 Defensive Contribution points. FPL managers are seeing the potential for all these metrics to increase this season with Pedro’s current on-field positioning.

Hidden Gem

Fulham’s Gonzalo Garcia (£6.0m) could be a good option for FPL managers in search of a new forward.

The attacker has had six shots in his opening two matches. Only four forwards can better that, and they are all between £1.7m and £9.5m more expensive in FPL.

Having picked up a valuable point with Arsenal at the weekend, our youngsters continued their fine start to the season by coming from behind to share the spoils with the Lionesses.

Following a stalemate first half in Kent, the home side broke the deadlock five minutes after the restart, but we quickly regrouped and found the leveller just after the hour mark.

Although we were unable to find a winner in the remainder of the second period, Matt Sharman’s side remain unbeaten in the league – and in all competitions – with five points from the opening three games.

Women's Legacy Numbers: The Full List  Tottenham Hotspur

Legacy Numbers will recognise every player to have made a competitive appearance from the start of the 2011/12 season – when Spurs Women entered the national league pyramid

The initiative reflects the Club’s ‘One Club, Two Teams’ approach and extends the existing Men’s Legacy Numbers programme to the Women’s team

The Club will provide non-numerical recognition for key figures from the Women’s team’s history prior to 2011, dating back to its formation as Broxbourne Ladies in 1985

The numbers will first appear on Women’s match shirts for the WSL season opener against West Ham United this Sunday (6 September)

The launch forms part of an ongoing programme of work across the Club aimed at reconnecting with the rich football heritage on which Tottenham Hotspur is built.

Since 2023, every Men’s player to have represented the Club in a senior competitive fixture has been assigned a unique Legacy Number, with current players wearing their number on the back collar of their match shirts and former players receiving commemorative Legacy certificates.

In recognition of the continued progression of Women’s football at the Club and Tottenham Hotspur’s own ‘One Club, Two Teams’ approach, the Club will now extend the initiative to its Women’s team – in turn, becoming the first Women’s Super League club to do so.

Legacy Numbers will be assigned from the start of the 2011/12 season - the point at which the team entered the national league pyramid, following promotion from the London and South-East Regional Leagues to the Women’s Premier League Southern Division. This approach has been agreed following consultation with a committee of current and former players, senior Women’s team management and the Fan Advisory Board.

Formally documented match and appearance records were collated by the Club, and verified with the assistance of the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters’ Trust, from our match against West Ham United Women on 21st August, 2011, onwards.

A full list of players and their unique Legacy Numbers are now listed on a dedicated section of the Club’s official website, from No.1, Joanne Ayre, through to our latest recipient, No.183, Hanna Wijk.

The Club is also providing non-numerical recognition for the many key figures in the history of the Women’s first team prior to 2011, dating back to the team’s formation as Broxbourne Ladies in 1985.

The Legacy Numbers will appear on Women’s match shirts from the opening game of the new WSL season against West Ham United on Sunday 6 September, with further players awarded a Legacy Number upon making their senior debut.

Kate Miller, Chief Communications Officer, Tottenham Hotspur said: “Our ‘One Club, Two Teams’ approach is about ensuring the history, identity and future of Tottenham Hotspur is shared across both our Men’s and Women’s teams. Introducing Legacy Numbers for our Women’s team is an

important expression of that commitment, creating a permanent connection between the players who have represented the Club and the generations who will follow. It recognises the contribution of those who have worn our colours, celebrates the journey of the Women’s team, and reflects our ambition to continue building one Spurs story across both teams.”

Jenna Schillaci, who made her Spurs Women debut as a 16-year-old in 2000, going on to represent the Club through the eras before captaining the side to our historic WSL promotion in 2019, added: “It is a proud moment to see Tottenham Hotspur recognise the players who have been part of the incredible journey of our women’s team in this way. Every player has contributed to the story of the Club, and Legacy Numbers are a meaningful way to honour that history while inspiring the players who will wear the shirt in the future.”
