‘Top player’, ‘Incredible’ – Some Tottenham fans react after hearing Mourinho wants 28-yr-old
Tottenham have been linked with a move for the Southampton star Danny Ings. The 28-year-old is one of the best strikers in the league right now and he could solve Spurs’ goalscoring problems. The Londoners are overly reliant on Harry Kane for goals and Ings could share the goalscoring burden if he moves to Spurs. He managed to score 25 goals for Southampton last season. It will be interesting to see if Spurs can convince Southampton to sell them their best player. Recently, the two clubs worked on the transfer of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg. Ings needs to play week in week out and Mourinho will have to give him assurances that he won’t be back up option to Kane if he moves to Spurs. It remains to be seen how the situation unfolds in the coming weeks. Spurs are yet to submit an offer for the play...
Report: Leicester emerge as favourites for £50m Welsh star ahead of Tottenham
According to The Sun, Leicester City are the leading contenders in the race for the signature of Bournemouth midfielder and Tottenham Hotspur target David Brooks, and they have been told he will cost £50 million. Manchester United have also been linked with the Welshman, but it doesn’t seem that they are actively looking to land his signature before the end of the summer transfer window. Leicester want to build on their fifth-place finish from last season and are keen to make quality additions to the squad. Injuries limited Brooks to only nine Premier League appearances last term, but he scored seven goals and assisted five times in 30 games in 2018-19, and it was that form that attracted Spurs and Man Utd to him in the first place. Former Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino was a huge fan ...
Report: Spurs want striker on Everton radar, he was close to Old Trafford move in January
According to The Sun, Tottenham Hotspur are now looking into a move for Bournemouth striker Josh King after missing out on Ollie Watkins to Aston Villa. The Cherries are open to selling the Norwegian international after getting relegated last term and with only nine months left on his deal, and he isn’t short of suitors in the Premier League, with Aston Villa, Fulham and Everton all keen. The trio are shortlisting King should he be available in the £15 million range, and Spurs will be looking to pip them to his signature. Boss Jose Mourinho wants another striker, and the 28-year-old can provide quality back-up for Harry Kane and even play out wide. Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti wants another striker and has been linked with Valencia’s Maxi Gomez, but he could prefer to land King who has muc...
Graeme Souness delivers brutal verdict on Tottenham player in five words
Former great Liverpool midfielder turned popular football pundit Graeme Souness is confident that Tottenham Hotspur will do well this season. Souness claims that champions Liverpool are likely to be challenged for the title by both the Manchester clubs and Chelsea. However, Spurs have a better chance of getting into the top four than their north London rivals Arsenal. Although Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal opened their season with a fantastic 3-0 win against Fulham at Craven Cottage, Souness is not convinced that the Gunners can maintain the same level of consistency throughout the campaign. The popular Sky Sports pundit is impressed with the signings made by Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho this summer. Spurs have signed Matt Doherty from Wolverhampton Wanderers, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg from Sout...
Report: £40m Spurs target wants Liverpool move, talks held over terms already
Liverpool started their 2020-21 Premier League campaign with a thrilling 4-3 win against Leeds United on Saturday at Anfield. The Reds are still a very strong side despite being largely inactive in the transfer market, but Jurgen Klopp probably feels the need now to make necessary incursions to add depth and quality to the side. However, the Reds may look to offload some of their players to fund moves for any potential arrival. And Klopp may need to make ruthless transfer calls. According to reports from The Sun (printed edition, 13/09/2020), Liverpool are keen to sign Ismaila Sarr from Watford this summer. The 22-year-old wants to join Liverpool and the player’s advisors have already met with Anfield chiefs to discuss terms. The Evening Standard reported last month that the Horn...
Di Marzio: Spurs have tabled loan bid & £46m option to buy 22-goal striker
According to Italian journalist and transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, Tottenham Hotspur have registered an interest in bringing Torino striker Andrea Belotti to the English Premier League this summer. Manager Jose Mourinho wants another striker for the new season and is hoping to land one before the transfer window shuts next month. Spurs have tabled a bid for Belotti, asking to sign him on loan with an option for a permanent move worth £46 million. However, Torino have rejected the idea, and they have told Tottenham that they will only consider an offer for an outright sale. Belotti ended 2019-20 with 22 goals in 44 games across all the competitions for the Serie A side, and he definitely has the quality to help Spurs return to the top-four and win silverware this season and going forwa...
‘Bit light’: Gary Lineker makes worrying claim about Tottenham
Former England striker turned popular football pundit Gary Lineker has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur may struggle to challenge for the top four. Lineker claims that Liverpool and Manchester City are expected to fight for the title, while Chelsea and Manchester United are likely to be in the top four. The BBC pundit expects Arsenal to put up a strong fight for the Champions League spot but Spurs may struggle to do so, as he feels their squad is a bit light. “For me they [Arsenal] are more likely to trouble the top four than Tottenham,” wrote Lineker for The Sun. “My old club have a few players who are coming towards the end and to me they look a bit light. “And if Harry Kane or Son Heung-min got injured then they’d be really light, despite the arrival of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Matt Dohe...
Report: 23-yr-old linked with Man Utd expected to sign for Tottenham soon
Tottenham have been linked with the Real Madrid defender Sergio Reguilon this summer. According to Forbes, the player could soon join Jose Mourinho’s team. He has been linked with Manchester United as well but the Red Devils are not keen on making a bid. The report further claims that United believe their name is being used to drive up interest in the 23-year-old. Reguilon was on loan at Sevilla last year and he was very impressive for them. He needs to keep playing regularly in order to fulfill his potential and Real Madrid clearly cannot provide him with that platform. Los Blancos have Marcelo and Mendy ahead of him in the pecking order. A permanent move away from Santiago Bernabeu would be ideal for the player this summer. Spurs could give him the opportunity he needs right now. Reguilo...
The Athletic: Spurs targeting £19m 12-goal striker, he’s open to move
According to The Athletic’s Charlie Eccleshare, Metz striker Habib Diallo is a target for Tottenham Hotspur this summer as they look to land a cover for England international Harry Kane. Spurs failed to bring in a replacement for Fernando Llorente last summer, and injuries to Kane and Heung-min Son during the second-half of 2019-20 proved costly. Metz want to sell Diallo this summer for between £14 million and £19 million, and the striker is also open to the move. The 25-year-old ended last season with 12 goals and three assists in 25 league appearances and will be keen to prove himself in the Premier League. Diallo scored 26 goals in 37 Ligue 2 appearances in 2018-19 to help his side secure promotion to the French top-flight, and he has the qualities to be a quality cover for Kane. The ag...
Report: Tottenham preparing offer for 14-goal target who is valued at £32m
Tottenham have been linked with a move for the Napoli striker Arkadiusz Milik for a while now. According to Football Insider, the Premier League side are now preparing to make an offer for the 26-year-old striker. Milik is not a regular starter for Napoli and he needs to leave the club in order to play regular first-team football. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham can provide him with such assurances. Harry Kane is the undisputed starter at Tottenham and Jose Mourinho will have to tweak his system in order to accommodate both strikers. There is no doubt that Tottenham need to sign another quality striker this summer and Milik seems like a perfect fit on paper. Last season, the Londoners struggled to score goals when Harry Kane was injured and signing someone like Milik would solve...
‘It just depends on him’: Luka Modric has his say on £22m Tottenham target’s future
Luka Modric has shed light on Gareth Bale’s situation, saying it is up to him to decide about his future. The Croatian was the team-mate of Bale at Tottenham Hotspur for four years and the pair have been together in Spain since the Welsh winger joined Madrid in 2013. Bale doesn’t feature in Zinedine Zidane’s first-team plans and Madrid will reportedly let him leave this summer. Modric has said that it is a difficult situation for Bale and the club. He feels that Bale needs to decide for himself what he wants to do next. He feels that Bale has a lot of football left in him and that he can still be a very important player for any club in the world. “For almost 12 years we are playing together and it’s a difficult situation for him and for the club,” Modric said to The Times. “Gareth needs to...
‘Please make it happen’ – Some Spurs fans want ‘African Haaland’ following reports
Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with an interest in RB Salzburg striker Patson Daka, and landing another striker is pertinent as Harry Kane is the only natural striker in their squad at the moment. Spurs’ failure to sign one following the departure of Fernando Llorente last summer proved costly when the England international got injured in January, but if they will make a move for Daka this summer remains to be seen. The 21-year-old grabbed four goals last night as Salzburg strolled to a 10-0 comfortable victory against Bregenz in the Austrian Cup, and that came just days after he grabbed a brace in a 2-2 draw with Premier League defending champions Liverpool. Tottenham fans would love to see chairman Daniel Levy bring Daka to N 17, and here is how some of them have reacted to football....
