Tottenham Hotspur are not expected to be highly active on deadline day, according to Sky Sports’ Michael Bridge.
After securing key signings earlier in the transfer window, the North London club are reportedly content with their current squad and are unlikely to make any major moves before the window closes.
Tottenham have already bolstered their squad this summer with the addition of young French winger Wilson Odobert, Archie Gray, Lucas Bergvall, and experienced striker Dominic Solanke. These signings have satisfied most of the club’s main objectives, particularly in strengthening their attacking options, which were a key focus for manager Ange Postecoglou.
The addition of Solanke fulfilled Postecoglou’s desire for an out-and-out striker, while Odobert provides a fresh and dynamic option on the wings, adding depth and versatility to the squad.
And while Bridge admitted that you can never completely rule out a last-minute move from Tottenham, he believes the chances are slim.
Speaking to GiveMeSport, Bridge stated:
“I think with Tottenham, you never say never. But my understanding is not to expect a busy deadline day in terms of incomings. They wanted an out-and-out striker, Postecoglou wanted Solanke, they got Solanke. I think they’ve been really impressive.
“What they’ve seen of Archie Gray so far, we also know that Odobert came out of nowhere, but he’s another option. He gives Spurs something a little bit different in the wide areas.”
Their main focus will be on the outgoings, with the club still hoping to seal transfers for Sergio Reguilon and Giovani Lo Celso before the deadline.
Tottenham have made a solid start to their campaign, bouncing back from a 1-1 draw against Leicester in the season opener to secure a 4-0 thumping victory against Everton in their next match.
They are set to face Newcastle on Sunday in the final gameweek before the first international break of the season.
