FourFourTwo

Tottenham Hotspur's season continues to go from bad to worse in recent months as they try and salvage whatever remains of their dismal campaign which has left them out of both domestic cups and sat 14th in the Premier League.

Speculation surrounding manager Ange Postecoglou's future continues to grow following a run of three wins in their last nine games in all competitions, with formerly crucial first-team players repeatedly failing to meet the required performance levels.

Elsewhere, injuries have ravaged the squad this season, perhaps the main reason the Australian still has his job, with the likes of Micky van de Ven, Dominic Solanke and Guglielmo Vicario all suffering significant respective periods on the sidelines.

Spurs defender 'willing to do everything' to leave the club

Another such player is World Cup winner Cristian Romero, who has spent the past few seasons establishing himself as the rock of Spurs' defence having signed from Atalanta on a permanent deal in 2022.

The Argentine's brazen physicality and habit of getting himself sent off was often overlooked by his imperious presence at the back in recent years, forming one of the Premier League's best defensive partnerships with Van de Ven prior to the duo missing the majority of the current campaign leading to him being recognised by FourFourTwo in our list of the best centre-backs in the world.

However, having already missed over half of the league games this season, intense speculation now suggests that Romero is edging towards an exit from North London, with Atletico Madrid believed to be the most interested party.

Sky Sports claim that the Spanish giants are going all-in on a summer move for the 26-year-old, who enters the final two years of his contract this summer.

Elsewhere, journalist Matteo Moretto claims that the Argentine 'is willing to do everything' to leave the club this summer, suggesting an exit has been initiated by the player himself amid Spurs' poor run of form.

Having paid close to £50 million for the player in 2022, Daniel Levy is likely to demand a figure close to the fee Atletico forked out for Julian Alvarez last summer to make a move happen, providing a big stumbling block in negotiations so far.

FourFourTwo understands that Spurs could start the bidding at a whopping €95m – which would put the World Cup winner in the upper echelon of sales from North London alongside Harry Kane and Gareth Bale.

It's Tottenham policy to only sell for huge profit – and with Romero the Lilywhites' fifth-most expensive signing ever, Levy would ideally want to charge double what the club spent.

The defender has made over 100 appearances for the club and would leave Postecoglou's side scrambling for replacements, with Radu Dragusin currently facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines with an ACL injury.

Kevin Danso's recent injury further amplifies the need for reinforcements, leaving the Carabao Cup semi-finalists with a headache this summer.

Tottenham are looking to bring in a new signing ahead of next season that will help get the best out of Dejan Kulusevski in 2025/26.

Kulusevski has been Tottenham's stand-out peformer in a poor season at the club, with his goals and assists ensuring Spurs don't slip even further down the Premier League table.

While the 24-year-old arrived at the club primarily as a right-winger, Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has now increasingly started using him more centrally, where he can have an even greater impact on the game. That could be set to continue next season as well, with their latest transfer target providing more strength to the side.

Tottenham want to bring in a new right-winger

Brennan Johnson has largely started at right-wing for Tottenham this season, providing width and pace to their attack. Inconsistency has hampered the club's progress, though, with Johnson coming under plenty of scrutiny during the campaign, too.

As a result, Tottenham are looking for an upgrade on Johnson, and they might have just found the perfect player from the Premier League to take up that mantle.

According to TBR Football, Tottenham are interested in signing Noni Madueke from Chelsea this summer, with the winger free to leave after falling out of favour with Enzo Maresca.

Madueke started the season strongly under Maresca, scoring a hat-trick against Wolves and cementing his spot on the right-wing in the starting XI. While he is now out with a hamstring injury, Maresca has questioned the 23-year-old on a number of occasions this term, suggesting that he "stopped playing" and is something "we need to improve immediately".

That has caused Chelsea to be open to selling Madueke in the summer, with Tottenham keen on taking him across the capital. The report suggests that Tottenham have been interested in Madueke since before he joined Chelsea, with his performances at PSV catching the club's attention.

Signing Madueke would allow Kulusevski to start games from the No.10 position he has excelled in at times this season as well, with the Swede often used on the right-wing to compensate for a lack of balance in the side.

With five years still remaining on his Chelsea contract, Madueke is valued at £33.4m by Transfermarkt. He moved to Stamford Bridge in January 2023 for £28.5m, with the report also suggesting that Newcastle and Aston Villa are interested in signing the English forward.

In FourFourTwo's view, Tottenham making an effort to sign Madueke certainly makes sense, with the winger possessing qualities Postecoglou's squad lacks. Whether Chelsea are willing to let a player leave who has once proved so useful is another story entirely, however.

Tottenham Hotspur are pushing ahead with plans to hire Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola.

That's according to a report following the Lilywhites' 15th Premier League defeat of the season at the weekend, away to Fulham. Ange Postecoglou's side are now winless in their last three, finding themselves 14th in the table.

European football now seems too distant for Tottenham to achieve unless they win the Europa League – but with Eintracht Frankfurt up next, they will have to beat one of the tournament favourites to progress.

Tottenham Hotspur have begun talks to hire Andoni Iraola of Bournemouth

Iraola, ranked at no.32 in FourFourTwo's list of the best managers in the world right now, was hired the same summer that Postecoglou arrived at Spurs – but fortunes have been dramatically different for the two bosses.

The Basque boss led Bournemouth to a record points tally last term and the Cherries are on course to improve on that once against this time, needing just four points to equal 2023/24's haul of 48 points – despite their talismanic forward Dominic Solanke becoming Tottenham Hotspur's second-most expensive signing ever last summer.

Now, Fichajes in Spain relay reports from Spanish outlet Estadio Deportivo that state that Spurs have sat up to take note of Iraola's fine progress.

It's claimed that the 42-year-old former Athletic Club defender is the board's favourite to “lead the new project” with talks already underway over replacing Posetecoglou as manager.

Fulham boss Marco Silva is apparently an option, too, for the north Londoners. Bournemouth, meanwhile, are already looking to try and convince Iraola to stay, as per talkSPORT.

FourFourTwo understands that Iraola has no intention of leaving Dorset midseason – especially with the hunt for European football still underway – but this summer, he will be one of the most sought-after coaches in Europe.

With plenty of European giants eyeing managerial changes over the summer, Spurs may well have to act early to secure their first-choice target. In 2023, Postecoglou was a backup option behind the likes of Arne Slot – and chairman Daniel Levy will be keen not to repeat history.

Tottenham Hotspur will spend the current international break licking their wounds after suffering a 2-0 defeat to London rivals Fulham at the weekend, a loss which sees them remain 14th in the Premier League table.

Ange Postecoglou’s side will have begun the campaign with European ambitions, but these expectations have now been seriously downgraded after a disappointing campaign which has seen them beaten 15 times in the Premier League already.

A busy summer is therefore likely on the cards in north London, not least in the transfer market as chairman Daniel Levy looks to improve the club’s playing squad.

Tottenham target promising Inter Miami star

Tottenham’s recent focus in the transfer market has largely to bring in talented young players, with the likes of teenage duo Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall both being snapped up last summer and subsequently making a first-team impact this term.

Spurs are again said to be targeting another young talent this summer, but this time they are looking across the Atlantic to one of MLS’ best young players and a team-mate of Lionel Messi - ranked at No.1 in FourFourTwo's list of the 100 best footballers of all time.

Inter Miami midfielder Benjamin Cremaschi has come up through the club’s academy, with his performances in the centre of midfield seeing him quickly establish himself in the club’s starting XI.

The 20-year-old was the youngest member of the United States Olympic team last year and is now part of the USMNT’s senior set-up under former Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino.

And according to TBR Football, Tottenham are one of a number of Premier League sides tracking his progress in recent weeks and months.

Manchester City, Brighton & Hove Albion are Newcastle United have also been linked with the versatile midfielder who already has 95 appearances for Inter Milan under his belt.

Cremaschi is valued at €4million by Transfermarkt, but is under contract at the MLS side until the end of 2027, with a club option of a further year, meaning Spurs would likely have to pay more than this to land the in-demand youngster.

Tottenham Hotspur have now passed 17 years without winning a major trophy, and chairman Daniel Levy has borne the brunt of fans’ criticism in recent times.

Levy has been in position at the club since 2001, but their only trophy during that period was the 2008 League Cup, when they beat Chelsea 2-1 in the final at Wembley.

This season under Ange Postecoglou, they sit a hugely disappointing 13th in the Premier League table this season, leading to increased criticism of Levy.

Former Tottenham Hotspur boss has his say

Tim Sherwood worked under Levy as the club’s manager during the 2013-14 season, having previously played for Spurs between 1999 and 2003, and insists that the criticism of Levy is unfair.

“Everyone looks at the common denominator and they think ‘Well, the managers have all come and gone and they’re still lifting no trophies, but the one remaining factor is Daniel Levy’,” Sherwood told FourFourTwo.

“But I was there with the old regime as a player, and I loved Alan Sugar because he was his own person, he was very straight, and I liked Daniel Levy, too, it’s just the fact that Daniel does it in a different way.

“It’s not his fault that the club haven’t won anything, I believe. I think they’ve had the opportunities to, and I think he’s spent money.

“The recruitment hasn’t been top drawer, that has been an area where if you have to point the finger, you’d have to point the finger at that.

“But then that’s a fine balance as well, because the recruitment team will be saying ‘Well, the manager’s not working with them properly’ and the manager will say ‘Well, the players are not good enough’.

“It’s not Levy’s fault that that’s happening. His job is to put his hand in his pocket and spend the money, and I think he has done that. You look overall, he’s spent the money.

“It’s a head-scratcher why they haven't won, I think they’ve been unlucky a lot of times down the years.

“They just need to break that duck, get over the line and win, and I do think they can win with Levy.”

Spurs have Europa League hope

Tottenham are out of both domestic cup competitions, but they remain in the Europa League – although they lost 1-0 in the first leg of their last 16 tie at Dutch club AZ.

Sherwood, though, believes they can turn the tie around and can still challenge to win that competition.

“I think they can win a trophy under Levy, and I think they can win one this year, I have to be honest,” he said, speaking in association with Foot Italia.

“I think they can win the Europa League. I think they’ll beat AZ. I watched the game last week and I don’t see anything to harm them, the only thing that can harm them is themselves, not playing to the ability that they have around that squad.

“They’ve got players back fit, there’s no excuse on that now. Alright, some of them might be a bit rusty, but they’ve got the players back.

“They’ve got a one-goal deficit going in, but if they can get through this, there’s no-one left in the competition to be scared of, there really isn’t.”

Tottenham Hotspur host AFC Bournemouth on Sunday looking to bounce back from their 1-0 defeat against Manchester City most recently. The Cherries hope to continue their charge towards a European finish and the clash has all the makings of a classic.

Ange Postecoglou made a promising start to life at Tottenham Hotspur, but this season has been extremely tough.

After charging to the top of the table in the opening stages of his first campaign at the club, Spurs eventually faded to fifth.

This season, they sit firmly in the bottom half of the table, after an injury-ravaged season has taken its toll.

Ange Postecoglou has the backing of a legend

Despite that lowly league position, Spurs legend Teddy Sheringham is still backing Postecoglou, who possibly increased expectations on himself early in the season by declaring that he always won a trophy in his second campaign at a club.

“I'm quite happy with Ange,” Sheringham said. “I think he’s had a learning period in terms of working with the English press, regarding some of the things that he's come out with at the start of the season.

“He probably wouldn’t use that terminology at different times in the season. He probably wouldn’t leave himself open to such criticism.

“He’s very open and honest, and sometimes that comes back to bite you when you speak to the English press like that, it definitely did with Ange.

“But I'm still optimistic about him because of the way he approaches football matches and the way he takes the game to the opposition.

“They’ve had loads of injuries. For me, he speaks sense, and if you’re missing your two international top performers in your centre-halves, and your goalkeeper, they make a massive difference to any football team.

“Any team from kids’ football to the top level of Champions League football, if you’re without your two main centre-halves and your goalkeeper, it makes a huge difference.”

Lack of respect

Some people have suggested that Postecoglou has used injuries as an excuse this season, but Sheringham believes it’s a perfectly valid reason.

“People haven’t respected that situation,” the former striker said, speaking in association with Prime Casino. “They’re still cutting away at him, chomping away, saying ‘We’ve heard that excuse, come on, tell us something different’.

“Ange can’t tell them anything different. It’s still the same situation, but we need to keep going to get through this period.

“Sometimes when you’re repeating yourself, it becomes tiresome and you don’t want to keep saying the same thing, but it’s the truth.

“I'm backing Ange, and when the players come back, things will look so much more positive and strong for Tottenham.

“That positivity floods through the rest of the team. The confidence will ooze once they come back into their positions.”

Tottenham have endured a chaotic campaign, to say the least, in 2024/25.

Ever-mounting injuries have produced an ever-more bedraggled Ange Postecoglou in post-match interviews — but he has clung on to his job and now has players returning.

Absences have dramatically changed the role of some Tottenham men, none more so than Archie Gray. Signed predominately to impact the Lilywhites’ midfield, he has spent the majority of his time in defence. A mooted new signing could soon change that.

Tottenham approach Rayo Vallecano, which could provide huge Archie Gray boost

Still only 18 years old, this is, remarkably, not the first time in his career Gray has had to adapt his game in this way. He broke through at Leeds United as a midfielder last season, but wound up playing the majority of the campaign at right-back to fill in for Luke Ayling.

It went so well that Gray — who is Spurs' eighth-most expensive signing ever — kept the place for the rest of the season. When Postecoglou had a defensive injury crisis of his own, Gray looked as ready as he could be to step in.

But Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo have now claimed that highly-rated Romanian right-back Andrei Ratiu is now on Spurs’ radar. It’ll be a tough fight for the London club. The same report states that Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Villarreal, Brighton, Atalanta, Roma and Bayer Leverkusen are all interested in the defender, who has a release clause in his contract worth €25million.

Nevertheless, the more signings made in the defensive areas, the less likely it is that Gray is put up to fill defensive gaps — especially at right-back, where he has already played almost a full season for Leeds.

Speaking during the Yorkshire club’s play-off run last season, Gray’s great-uncle — and former Leeds winger — Eddie, told Sky Sports: "He's been playing in a position that is not natural to him; he's a midfield player, and he'll end up playing in the middle of the park.”

Soon, if Spurs do land Ratiu, Gray may finally move one step closer to proving his uncle right.

In FourFourTwo’s opinion, we need to get a glimpse of Gray in midfield at some point soon.

His frame and style make him a fairly unnatural fit in a centre-back pairing, but the fact he’s filled in there without too many glaring errors, in the Premier League, shows just how good he could be.

Again, it must be stressed, Gray has taken all this on despite still being just 18 years old. It would be enough to make many of his age-mates crumble, but he’s taken it in his stride.

Imagine what he might show when allowed back to his natural position.

Watch Tottenham vs Manchester City on Wednesday February 26, in a tasty clash at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium during a midweek round of Premier Leaguefixtures.
