Report: Tottenham in the race to sign 12-goal star who is expected to move to England
Tottenham are keen on signing the Metz striker Habib Diallo this summer. As per La Semaine, the Londoners are very much in the race to sign the 25-year-old striker who has scored 12 goals in Ligue 1 this past season. Diallo has three assists to his name as well and he could be a really handy option for Mourinho next season. The report adds that the player is expected to move to England this summer. Tottenham need a quality backup for Harry Kane and Diallo would be a good addition. He is a good finisher and he could share the goalscoring burden in the absence of the England international. Kane missed quite a few games this season due to injury and Spurs struggled to score without him. Diallo could plug that gap next season. It will be interesting to see who Spurs manage to sign as Kane’s ba...
Report: Mourinho has personally blocked European giants’ approach for Spurs defender
According to Standard Sport, Tottenham Hotspur manager Jose Mourinho has personally blocked Barcelona’s approach for left-back Ryan Sessegnon. The 20-year-old has failed to make Spurs’ last two matchday squads despite being fully fit and has featured in just six league games since arriving from Fulham for £25 million last summer. Sessegnon’s situation is being monitored by a host of other English and European clubs, and he will consider his future at the end of the season if he fears that he could spend another campaign on the fringes. The youngster was wanted by Mourinho while he was Manchester United manager, and how things have panned out since the Portuguese’s arrival at Tottenham has left him frustrated and puzzled. Sessegnon is hoping to make Gareth Southgate’s Euros 2021 s...
‘A top, top player’ – Graeme Souness raves about 23-yr-old PL star linked with Tottenham
Popular pundit Graeme Souness has heaped praise on the Newcastle winger Allan Saint-Maximin. The Frenchman has been in inspired form since the restart and he could guide Newcastle to a top-half finish if he continues to perform at this level. The Magpies are only three points behind 10th placed Burnley. Saint-Maximin has had a good season overall and Souness thinks he is a ‘top player’. The 23-year-old was recently hailed as the signing of the season by Newcastle manager Steve Bruce. Souness believes that the Newcastle star will only get better with time and no defender in the league will want to be up against in him in one-vs-one situations. He said (quotes via Chronicle): “He’s a top, top player. It’s easy to look at him and just talk about his dribbling when he gets one-on-one.&nbs...
‘All depends on the takeover’: Many Magpies fans react to PL star’s comments on NUFC move
Danny Rose has stated his desire to stay at Newcastle United and has admitted that he is playing for his future. The 30-year-old is currently on loan at St James’ Park from Tottenham Hotspur. Rose is not in Jose Mourinho’s first-team plans, and the left-back will be sold in the summer. It remains to be seen whether Newcastle take up the decision to sign him permanently at the end of the season. Rose has made seven appearances for the Magpies (six starts) so far. While he looked decent, many Newcastle fans are not convinced whether the club should sign him permanently. “First and foremost, I’m playing for my future,” Rose told the matchday programme. “I don’t think I need a bigger motivation than that. I’ve settled in very well, I love the lads and members of staff, and the fans. “It doesn’...
‘Disappointed’ – Spurs star explains why he will miss Everton clash
Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli has confirmed through his Instagram handle that he will miss tonight’s clash against Everton. The 24-year-old is currently down with a hamstring injury and hasn’t made the matchday squad. Alli came off the bench to play the last 19 minutes in Thursday’s 3-1 defeat against Sheffield United but sustained the knock during training on Saturday. The Tottenham star has had problems with his hamstring in the past, and it also saw him miss some games at the beginning of this season. Spurs will have to face Everton without one of their star players and it’s a blow on their chances of winning given his creativity and quality. Alli has featured in 24 league games for the North London giants this term, scoring eight goals and assisting four times. Tottenham trave...

Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho has taken a swipe at Arsenal after the Gunners’ social media handle mocked Spurs’ defeat to Sheffield United.

Mourinho explained that Arsenal are only enjoying Tottenham’s troubles because they are in that situation themselves. He also pointed out that the Gunners haven’t been any better in the league this season. The Spurs boss also claimed that his team will be waiting for Arsenal. The two teams meet in the north London derby on Sunday. That said, Mourinho is not keen on being the top dog in North London. He wants his side to be more ambit...
‘It made me wonder’ – Alan Shearer questions why Spurs duo are on the bench
Tottenham Hotspur suffered their 11th Premier League defeat of the campaign at the hands of Sheffield United on Thursday, and will hope to make up for the loss with a victory against Everton tonight. There are just six games left for Spurs this term, and how they fare in them will determine if they will be playing European football next term. The defeat at Bramall Lane dealt a massive blow on their chances of playing Champions League in 2020-21, and the performance has got Alan Shearer wondering why Jan Vertonghen and Toby Alderweireld were both on the bench given how defensively inept Tottenham looked at the back. “They were simply awful in Thursday’s 3-1 defeat by Sheffield United. It has basically ended any lingering hope they had of qualifying for next season’s Champions League,” the f...

Everton are expected to be very active in the summer transfer window. The Toffees need to sign a defensive central midfielder this summer along with other requirements.

Di Marzio: Spurs considering to include 27 y/o forward in negotiation to sign 13-goal star
Napoli are most likely to finish outside the top four in the Serie A this season. The Naples club could be forced to offload some of their key players this summer. It seems Arkadiusz Milik could be one of them. According to reports from Gialucadimarzio.com, Napoli are working on two separate deals simultaneously. They are looking to sign Victor Osimhen, and at the same time are working to offload Milik. The Polish striker will not renew his contract with Napoli, and he is likely to be sold. However, not many clubs in Europe are in a position to sign him due to his high price tag. Therefore, Napoli are looking at the possibility of a part-exchange deal where an opposition player is involved. The striker is keen on a move to Juventus, but there is strong interest from Tottenham as well....
Report: Tottenham hope to replace 27-yr-old first team ace with PL defender this summer
Tottenham are keen on signing Max Aarons from Norwich City this summer. The Londoners are open to selling Serge Aurier and replacing him with the young defender. The 27-year-old hasn’t exactly been a reliable presence for Spurs this season. Aarons is highly rated in England and he has impressed in his debut season in the Premier League so far. When Norwich go down, he should look to move on to a bigger club. The Norwich City defender is too good for the Championship. If Spurs manage to sign him, it would be a superb long-term investment for them. Aarons is only 20-years-old and he could sort out their right-back position for the next decade. The Norwich defender is only going to get better with experience and coaching. It would be quite a coup for the Londoners. As per the Athletic, Mourin...
