The Boy Hotspur

Former Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho has shown interest in reuniting with Sergio Reguilon, intending to bring the left-back to Fenerbahce during this transfer window.

As reported by AS, Mourinho views Reguilon as a significant addition to his squad, recognising the Spanish defender’s value and potential.

However, Fenerbahce will face competition in securing Reguilon’s services, as both Galatasaray and Barcelona are also said to be interested in signing him.

Tottenham initially signed Reguilon from Real Madrid when Mourinho was in charge, making this potential reunion particularly noteworthy.

Reguilon is in the final year of his contract with Spurs and has been informed that he is no longer part of Ange’s plans. The Lilywhites are looking to sell the defender to raise funds for new signings that would better fit Postecoglou’s tactical vision.

Spurs already have Destiny Udogie as their main starter for the left-back position. However, they do need another good quality backup.

As the transfer window progresses, Mourinho’s interest in Reguilon could be pivotal in facilitating this move.

For Reguilon, a transfer to Fenerbahce under Mourinho’s guidance could offer a valuable opportunity to rejuvenate his career.

For Tottenham, it would represent a crucial step in their ongoing squad restructuring efforts.

The coming weeks will determine whether this reunion between Mourinho and Reguilon becomes a reality, as Spurs look to finalise their squad ahead of the new season.

In a recent episode of the Stick to Football podcast, Gary Neville has predicted that Tottenham will finish in the top four for the 2024/25 Premier League season.

Neville claimed that Spurs will secure the final Champions League spot, ahead of Liverpool, a prediction that took many by surprise, including fellow pundit Ian Wright.

When asked to pick who will finish top 4, Neville said: “I’ll go Tottenham”, to which a surprised Wright replied: “You’re going to go Tottenham? Wow!”

Last season, the Lilywhites came very close to securing a Champions League spot, losing out to Aston Villa by just two points.

Looking ahead to the upcoming season, they will be determined to climb higher in the league standings, having reinforced their squad during the summer transfer window.

The additions of key players such as Dominic Solanke, Archie Gray, Timo Werner and Lucas Bergvall has bolstered the team significantly.

As the new season unfolds, Spurs will aim to improve on their performances from last season and finish in the top 4 as well as win a silverware.

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly eyeing a late move for Brazilian right-back Vanderson from AS Monaco.

With Emerson Royal’s having completed his long-awaited move to AC Milan, Spurs are now keen to sign a replacement for him and strengthen their squad before the Premier League season kicks off.

According to the latest from GiveMeSport, Tottenham are genuinely interested in Vanderson.

The 23-year-old has attracted attention from the Lilywhites, and there is a clear desire to bring him to North London.

The report claims that the club might step up their pursuit of Vanderson in the last stages of the transfer window and try to wrap up a deal for him.

The club feels he complements Ange’s style of play and will be the ideal signing for the club.

Vanderson signed with Monaco in January 2022, committing to a contract that extends until June 2027.

During his time at the club, he has displayed considerable potential, appearing in 23 matches across all competitions last season.

He notched three goals and provided one assist, showcasing both his defensive capabilities and his attacking prowess—qualities that align well with Spurs’ objectives.

Securing a player of his skill level would significantly enhance the team’s defensive strength, offering manager Ange Postecoglou increased tactical flexibility and depth in the squad.

As the transfer window approaches its final days, it remains to be seen how this transfer plays out.

Ben Davies wants to run down his deal at Tottenham and leave as a free agent next summer.

The Welsh international joined Spurs back in 2014 after making a name for himself while playing for Swansea. While he has been an integral part of the North London club’s first team over the years, he has gone down the pecking order since the arrival of Ange Postecoglou.

With his contract running out in less than 12 months, Ben Davies’ future at the club has been a big talking point and he has been linked with a move away from the club. But, according to a report from Football Insider, the Tottenham veteran has decided to see out the final year of his contract and leave Spurs as a free agent next summer.

The 31-year-old has featured in 330 matches for the North London club and he has even contributed towards 32 goals (9 goals, 23 assists). While he prefers playing in the heart of the defence, he is equally effective as a left-back. Last season, he was only involved in 19 matches and racked up less than 1,300 minutes. Despite not being a prominent figure last time out, Postecoglou still has no problems having him around as he could prove to be an important squad player.

While reports suggested that the player could look for a move away in search of regular first-team action, he has decided he wants to stay at Tottenham for the 2024/25 season. Spurs need to trim their squad and balance their books in a transfer window where they have already spent a significant amount. Despite that, they are leaning towards keeping the 31-year-old in their team for next season.

Tottenham attacking sensation Alejo Veliz has opened up about his loan move to Espanyol for the 2024/25 season.

Alejo Veliz’s impressive rise at Rosario Central caught the attention of Tottenham who managed to strike a deal with the Argentine club for his services in the summer of 2023. He spent the first half of the season at the English club but hardly got any first-team action. As a result, they ended up sending him out on loan to Sevilla. While he was expected to rack up a few minutes at the Spanish club, things didn’t work out as expected.

Despite the disappointing loan spell at the Spanish club last time out, Veliz decided to make a return to La Liga. The 20-year-old Argentine striker has joined newly promoted Espanyol on a season-long loan. He is expected to have a significant role at his new club and seems more than ready for the challenge.

Veliz has been handed the number nine shirt and he is eager to make his mark for Espanyol. The striker also revealed that he asked his agents to make the move happen at all costs.

Veliz said to Mundo Deportivo: “Since my agents told me that this possibility existed, I told them to push hard because I wanted to come here.”

The 20-year-old wants to settle in and have a good season away from Spurs.

Before signing for Espanyol, the Argentine youth international had a chat with their manager Manolo González who seemed to be quite excited to have the youngster in his ranks.

Tottenham have issued a warning, stating they will only part ways with Giovani Lo Celso if a compelling offer is made.

The Argentine international has had a lot of success at the international stage in recent years but things haven’t worked out for him at club level. He did play an important part in Argentina’s triumph at Copa America but that is unlikely to help him get regular minutes at Tottenham. The North London club are ready to part ways with the utility man but according to a report from TyC Sports, Spurs have ‘warned’ that they will only sell Giovani Lo Celso if a good offer arrives.

He made the move to Tottenham in the summer of 2019. They forked out a significant fee to sign him on a season-long loan before making the move permanent in 2020. While he was expected to become an integral part of the first team, things haven’t gone according to plan for him at the London club. Lo Celso has struggled to get going and with just a year left on his deal, there has been a lot of talk about his future.

Last season, the 28-year-old was involved in just 24 matches, he racked up less than 600 minutes of first-team football. With his contract expiring, Spurs are ready to cash in on Lo Celso and there is interest from Aston Villa as well as Real Betis. Villa are already home to a few Argentine internationals Emiliano Martínez, Emiliano Buendía and Enzo Barrenechea while Betis is a club where he had a lot of success, even if it was just for a season.

While he is way down the pecking order under Ange Postecoglou who is ready to sanction his departure, Spurs have made it quite clear that they will allow Lo Celso to leave only if a good offer arrives on their doorstep. He will only leave London through a sale, a loan move is not an option.

James Maddison has not been the same since returning from his injury last season.

Maddison joined Tottenham from Leicester City last summer for an estimated £40 million, initially made a strong impression.

His performances earned him the Premier League Player of the Month award for August, thanks to a goal and two assists in his first three games.

However, a November ankle injury sidelined him until 2024, affecting his form upon return.

He ended the season with four goals and nine assists in 28 league appearances, a tally that Maddison himself acknowledged fell short of expectations due to difficulties in regaining peak performance post-injury.

As Tottenham prepare for the new season, the former Leicester man has attracted significant attention, with pundit Danny Murphy offering insights into areas where the England international can enhance his game.

Murphy, speaking on talkSPORT, highlighted two crucial aspects where Maddison needs to focus to maximise his impact at Spurs.

Despite Maddison’s clear talent, Murphy believes improving his durability and defensive skills will be vital for his success.

Murphy suggests that Maddison needs to work on his fitness to maintain performance levels throughout matches and improve his defensive responsibilities, especially as a No. 10 in a three-man midfield setup.

Murphy said:

“He is a phenomenal footballer, super intelligent, great balance, can open you up with his passing, can score a goal. Maddison, where he has got to improve to become a Tottenham superstar and actually be the difference in big games, is two things.”

“One is his durability, staying clear of injuries and also coming off in games. Very rarely lasts 90 minutes, Maddison. Maybe it is a physical thing, maybe it’s a mental thing, who knows, but he has got to get better at that.”

“The other thing I would suggest he needs to improve on a little bit is his defensive work, because when you play as a No.10 in a three, you have got to do your defensive work.”

With the addition of promising talents Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray, who have impressed during pre-season, Maddison will face increased competition for his starting position.

As Tottenham gear up for the new season, Maddison is expected to address these areas for improvement to solidify his role as a key player for Spurs.

Jamie Carragher has backed Tottenham to do well in the upcoming season.

According to Carragher’s predictions reported by the Daily Mail, Tottenham are set to secure the final Champions League spot, beating Manchester United to it.

The former Liverpool man predicted the top 4, backing Manchester City to continue their dominance, with Pep Guardiola’s side expected to claim their fifth consecutive Premier League title.

Arsenal, who have closely challenged City in recent seasons, are predicted to finish as runners-up once again.

Liverpool, despite undergoing a managerial transition following Jurgen Klopp’s departure, have been backed to finish third by their former defender.

And Carragher has tipped Tottenham, under the guidance of Ange Postecoglou, to clinch fourth place ahead of Manchester United, who are expected to end the season in fifth.

Tottenham have bolstered their squad significantly over the summer, including a major £65 million signing of striker Dominic Solanke.

They have also strengthened their midfield with the signings of Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall.

Additionally, the club has secured Timo Werner on loan for another year and have emerging talents like Mikey Moore poised to play key roles.

They enjoyed a great pre-season and if they can continue playing the same way, they have a good chance of finishing top 4.

Tottenham Hotspur have recently secured a major signing by bringing Dominic Solanke to North London from Bournemouth.

Solanke has signed a six-year contract with Spurs, with an initial deal worth £55 million that could rise to £65 million with bonuses. This makes it a potential record-breaking transfer for both clubs.

This signing is a significant coup for Tottenham, as several other clubs, particularly West Ham United, were also interested in signing the talented English forward.

According to Hammer News, a spokesperson from West Ham confirmed the club’s interest, revealing that the Hammers were eager to add Solanke to their squad.

They were willing to offer him a substantial weekly wage of £115,000 but ultimately couldn’t compete with Tottenham’s offer.

The West Ham spokesperson mentioned that the club’s chairman, David Sullivan, would have loved to sign Solanke. However, they simply didn’t have £65 million to invest in a single player.

This situation underscores the competitive nature of the transfer market and the financial strength Spurs demonstrated to secure its target.

Solanke’s outstanding performance last season, with 21 goals in 41 appearances across all competitions, ranked him as the fourth joint-top scorer in the Premier League, making him a highly coveted player.

For Spurs, adding Solanke is a strategic move to strengthen their attacking options as they aim to build a squad capable of competing for domestic and European titles.

His arrival is expected to significantly enhance the team’s offensive capabilities, and fans eagerly await his impact in the upcoming season.

Tottenham Hotspur are closely monitoring the unfolding situation with Conor Gallagher as his potential move to Atletico Madrid faces complications.

Spurs, along with Arsenal, have shown keen interest in the Chelsea midfielder, whose future has been a hot topic in the summer transfer market.

Last month, Chelsea entered into negotiations with Atletico Madrid and accepted a transfer offer for Gallagher. However, despite the midfielder’s journey to Spain, the deal has yet to be finalized.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Gallagher is currently returning to London, signalling that the transfer has stalled.

Romano reports that while the agreement between Gallagher and Atletico Madrid covered medical examinations and documentation, the final signatures from the Spanish side have not yet been secured. This delay provides an opportunity for other clubs, including Tottenham, to potentially step in.

🚨🔵 EXCLUSIVE: Conor Gallagher, on his way back to London, on private flight now!

All done between Conor/Atléti, medical and documents included… but no final signatures from Atléti.

Gallagher is in the last year of his contract, which ends next June, putting Chelsea in a position where they could lose him for free next summer. The situation is complicated by Chelsea’s interest in Atletico’s Joao Felix, which might revive the negotiations with the Spanish club.

For Tottenham, this uncertainty offers a chance to enhance their midfield. Despite adding Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray recently, Spurs are eager to include Gallagher in their squad.

His industrious style of play and ability to influence games make him an appealing target for manager Ange Postecoglou, who appreciates Gallagher’s on-field contributions.

As the transfer window continues, Tottenham is keeping a close watch on Gallagher’s status and is ready to seize the opportunity to bring the talented midfielder into their fold if the chance arises.
