Jack’s Back! Wilshere in contention for West Ham return after overcoming nightmare run of injuries

West Ham Manager David Moyes confirmed that Jack Wilshere is available and has every chance of featuring in the London grudge match at Tottenham this evening. Wilshere whose professional career has been hindered by consistent injury problems is said to have not missed a single training session in the build-up to tonight’s game and would be ready to play if called upon. It’s been a frustrating first season at the London Stadium for the former England international who has only featured in a total of eight times in all competitions so far for West Ham. A move across London was meant to reinvigorate Wilshere’s once-promising career but his injury record has been the only news of note since his arrival but his return coincides with a clash against Spurs, a team he knows only too well from his ...

Sky Sports pundit urges Mourinho to raid Tottenham’s top four rivals for talented duo

Sky Sports pundit Graeme Souness has urged Tottenham to move for the Leicester City duo Caglar Soyuncu and Ricardo Pereira. He has also suggested Manchester City’s Angelino as a potential signing. He said (quotes via Football London): “In terms of potential solutions, I like Caglar Soyuncu at Leicester City very much. He is strong, quick and good on the ball but crucially also takes defending seriously. It’s not all about passing it out from the back and how he looks on the ball for him. He’s the standout signing for me this summer, the centre half they will all be after. I also like Leicester’s right-back, Ricardo Pereira, he’s got the right qualities for the modern game and Angelino, the left-back who’s on loan from Manchester City at RB Leipzig, has impressed me.” It will be interesting...

Report: Newcastle interested in 25-yr-old linked with Spurs, star would cost £27m

Newcastle United have been linked with a move for the Roma keeper Pau Lopez. The 25-year-old has done well in Serie A this season and Journalist Francesco Balzani claims that the Magpies like the player. It would be strange if Newcastle made a move for Lopez this summer. They have much more pressing concerns and they have a quality keeper in Dubravka. Furthermore, Lopez is doing well at Roma and it is highly unlikely that he would move to Newcastle without any game time assurances. With Dubravka at the club, Newcastle cannot possibly guarantee him regular first-team football. Lopez is at the stage of his career where he wouldn’t want to be a backup option. The transfer seems highly unlikely and it could just be speculation. Darlow and Elliott are expected to leave Newcastle soon and t...

‘A great decision’: Mourinho makes transfer admission on £25m player ‘with a great future’

Jose Mourinho has showered praise on Tottenham Hotspur winger Steven Bergwijn in his latest press conference.

He has scored three goals in six games for the club already. Mourinho has admitted that Bergwijn was not his first choice target in the transfer market. Howe...

‘Am I dreaming?’ – Some Spurs fans react as Mourinho delivers ‘good news’ ahead of Hammers game

Tottenham Hotspur host West Ham United tomorrow and will look to secure much-needed victory following Friday’s stalemate with Manchester United. Finishing fifth will see the North Londoners secure Champions League football for next season if Manchester City’s ban is upheld, and eighth-placed Spurs could do with a win against the Hammers with just eight games to go. Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho has been handed a massive boost ahead of the clash, with all his attacking options available for selection after Lucas Moura attained full fitness after sitting out of the last game. “We have only good news, Lucas is back from injury, Dele Alli is back from punishment and no injuries coming from the game against United so we didn’t lose any players and we have two extra players that make ou...

‘A great demonstration of professionalism’ – Mourinho in awe of what Spurs players did against United

Tottenham Hotspur returned to Premier League action on Friday, playing out a 1-1 draw against Manchester United in what was a fierce clash. It was their first competitive game in more than three months, but the intensity was there to see given what was at stake. Both sides are looking to secure Champions League football for next season and they gave their all. Spurs boss Jose Mourinho was particularly impressed seeing his players give their all on the pitch, and he has praised them for their character and professionalism. “Maybe you disagree with me, which I will accept, but I watched the beginning of the Bundesliga, I watched the Portuguese first fixture and the Spanish first fixture. I think I watched almost all the matches in the Premier League first fixtures. I think our match was the ...

Reliable journalist: Tottenham have submitted an offer for £50k-per-week target

It is an open secret that Tottenham Hotspur are looking to bolster their midfield in the summer transfer window. Jose Mourinho wants to add a solid defensive midfielder in the summer and has earmarked Southampton midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg as a potential option. Hojbjerg has just one year left on his current £50k-per-week deal and he is yet to sign a new contract. Moreover, he has openly expressed his desire to play at a higher level. Last week, Southampton removed Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg as their captain. It probably gives an indication that the 24-year-old midfielder will not be staying at the club beyond the summer. According to reliable journalist and transfer expert Duncan Castles, Tottenham Hotspur have submitted an offer to Southampton already. He claims that the Saint...

Report: Tottenham launch late bid to sign 22-yr-old who has been linked with Everton

Tottenham have made a move to sign the Lille defender Gabriel Magalhaes. The 22-year-old has been heavily linked with Everton and Napoli in the recent weeks. As per Sun, Jose Mourinho has launched a bid to sign the young defender despite reports that Napoli have an agreement to sign the player. It will be interesting to see if Spurs can hijack the move and bring him to England this summer. It is no secret that the Londoners need to improve their back four. Jan Vertonghen is expected to leave at the end of this season and Spurs will have to bring in a replacement. Gabriel is highly talented and the Brazilian could be Vertonghen’ long term replacement at the club. The 22-year-old has impressed a lot with Lille this season and Mourinho wants him to replace Tottenham’s Belgian defender next se...

Nicolo Schira: Euro club ‘are in talks’ to sign £100k-per-week Spurs star

According to transfer expert and reliable journalist, Nicolo Schira, Tottenham Hotspur defender Jan Vertonghen will not stay at the club beyond the end of the season. In fact, Vertonghen’s contract (£100k-per-week deal) will expire at the end of this month. The Belgian international is currently in his eighth season at the London club, but he is unlikely to be offered a new deal. Schira claims that Serie A giants Roma are in talks with Vertonghen. In fact, Franco Baldini has offered him a two-year contract already. #ASRoma are in talks with Jan #Vertonghen, if he will leave #Tottenham.

Former Manchester United striker and club legend Wayne Rooney has suggested what Liverpool must do in the transfer market. Rooney, in his column for The Times, has showered praise on Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp in particular. He feels that the Reds would be deserved champions this season. The former England striker says that Liverpool have a strong young squad and that they can win more trophies in the next few years. He feels if Liverpool can keep hold of Klopp for the next 10 years, the Reds will win at least five Premier League titles. With such a strong squad at their disposal, where would Liverpool invest next? Rooney feels that in the transfer market, Liverpool should look to bolster their bench strength. He suggests that Liverpool could buy more back-ups to the front three. Rooney fe...

Tottenham Hotspur have received a massive transfer boost in the race to sign Lille striker Victor Osimhen. Lille manager Christophe Galtier has confirmed that the highly-rated Nigerian forward will leave the club at the end of the season. The 21-year-old has scored 18 goals in his debut campaign for the French club. He scored 13 goals in the league and found the net in the Champions League as well. He has been linked with a move to the Premier League with three London clubs – Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur – vying for his signature.

David De Gea on top, Man Utd and Man City lead the pack in highest-paid Premier League stars

With massive foreign investment, bumper broadcast contracts and major sponsorship deals, the Premier League is undoubtedly a big money spinner. England’s top flight is awash with cash and its biggest stars are able to earn amounts of money that the majority of the population can only dream about. For any footballer aiming to boost their earnings, securing a move to one of the Manchester clubs is a great way to achieve that goal. United goalkeeper David de Gea is testament to that fact, with his £375,000 per week salary putting him at the top of the Premier League earnings list. That figure puts him way in front of the next two players in the standings, both of whom currently ply their trade with local rivals City. Kevin De Bruyne’s £320,833 per week salary puts him second on the list, whil...
