Tottenham Hotspur centre-back Toby Alderweireld has confirmed that goalkeeper Michel Vorm and fellow Belgium international Jan Vertonghen are leaving the North London club. The Dutch goalie returned to Spurs last summer for the second time as a cover for Hugo Lloris and Paulo Gazzaniga, while the Belgian defender is set to end his eight-year stay after he couldn’t agree terms of a new deal with the club. Both played a key part in Tottenham’s campaign this term, and while the club haven’t officially confirmed that they are leaving, Alderweireld has done so through an emotional post on Twitter: Sad to see these two amazing guys leaving the club, both great players but even better persons. We shared countless moments that I’ll never forget. Wishing you all the best for your next steps. ...
Tottenham Hotspur will look to secure a victory against Crystal Palace today in order to boost their chances of playing in Europe next term, and they will also need other results to go in their favour. Chelsea have to beat sixth-placed Wolverhampton Wanderers for Spurs to pip Nuno Espirito Santo’s team to what could be the last Europa League spot if Arsenal win the F.A Cup, and manager Jose Mourinho is expected to name a strong starting line-up in order to do his own part. While Jan Vertonghen could make his last appearance for Tottenham today, the Belgium international will most likely come off the bench, with Eric Dier likely to return to the defence following a four-match ban. That would see Toby Alderweireld make way for the England international, with Davinson Sanchez expected to keep...
Tottenham are interested in signing the Bournemouth striker Callum Wilson this summer. As per Sun, Daniel Levy is prepared to submit an offer for the player. Wilson could leave the Cherries for as little as £10m and he could prove to be a good addition to Mourinho’s squad. Spurs need a backup striker and Wilson would be ideal. The 28-year-old could partner Kane in attack as well depending on the opposition and the game plan. It will be interesting to see if Spurs can agree on a deal with the Cherries for their star striker in the coming weeks, especially if Bournemouth go down. Eddie Howe’s men are currently 19th in the table and they will have to win their final game and hope that Watford loses theirs. Wilson has done well for the Cherries in the Premier League so far and he has the ...
Tottenham are looking at the Bournemouth keeper Aaron Ramsdale to provide more competition to Hugo Lloris next season. According to Daily Mail, Ben Foster and Marcus Bettinelli are options for the London club as well. Hugo Lloris has entered the final 12 months of his contract and he will need replacing soon. Ramsdale could be available this summer if the Cherries are relegated. The player might be keen on staying in the Premier League and he will surely be tempted if Spurs come calling. It would be a massive step up in his career and he would get to play for a world-class manager like Jose Mourinho. Playing with better players alongside him could help Ramsdale improve his game as well. He could learn from a top-class keeper like Lloris if he joins Spurs this summer. The 22-year-old is cle...
Tottenham are keeping tabs on the Roma midfielder Nicolo Zaniolo this summer. According to The Guardian, the Londoners have been tracking the 21-year-old for some time now and they were prepared to offer £30m for Zaniolo last summer. However, things have changed since then and Spurs do not consider him a priority signing for this summer. That said, they still rate the player highly and consider him a future prospect. It will be interesting to see if Spurs decide to test Roma’s resolve with a bid in the coming months. Furthermore, Guardian adds that Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is keen on signing for Jose Mourinho’s side and Tottenham are confident of landing him. The player is a target for Everton as well and the Toffees have had a bid accepted for the player. But the player prefers a ...

Mourinho has publicly revealed that someone who has a history and connection with Tottenham is joining his staff, and that has now been identified as King. The Spurs boss has embraced the former skipper’s defensive expertise and used him to offer advice and guidance to his defenders, and the ex centre-back i...

According to an exclusive report from the Daily Echo, Hojbjerg has visited Everton’s training ground and has agreed personal terms with the Toffees. The report claims that Southampton have accepted Everton’s offer of £25m for the midfielder. Everton had submitted a £20m offer earlier this week but it was turned down by the Saints.

Roma midfielder Nicolo Zaniolo has been linked with a move to Tottenham recently. According to Italian Journalist Nicolo Schira, the Londoners are now ready to offer €50m (£45.2m ) for the 21-year-old midfielder. Apparently, Jose Mourinho wants the player at Tottenham this summer. It will be interesting to see if the Premier League giants can come to an agreement with Roma now. The Serie A side are thought to be holding out for a fee in the region of €60-70m. If Spurs can offer €50m for him, one would have to assume that the deal can be done. It is not far from Roma’s valuation and the two clubs could eventually reach a compromise. Zaniolo is one of Italy’s finest young talents and he could be a superb long-term addition to Jose Mourinho’s squad. The attacking midfielde...
Tottenham Hotspur star Eric Dier has signed a new contract with the club which will run until 2024. The England international had just a year left on his former deal and was been linked with an exit in some quarters. However, Dier is more than happy to continue plying his trade at Tottenham having become a regular name in the starting XI under manager Jose Mourinho. The versatile defensive player has recently established himself as one of the Portuguese’s centre-back pairing and will hope to hold on to his starting berth for as long as possible. Belgian centre-back Jan Vertonghen has lost his place in the team due to Dier’s rise and is expected to move on once his contract ends at the end of the campaign. The 33-year-old saw the hilarious side of the England international’s contract extens...
