Tottenham gear up for a challenging fixture list with pressing transfer needs.
Tottenham find themselves in the spotlight as the club ramps up efforts to secure new attacking signings before the transfer window slams shut. With the departures and injuries posing notable challenges, Spurs are back in talks for Eberechi Eze, looking to clinch a deal with Crystal Palace. Despite Eze’s £68 million release clause recently expiring, Spurs press on, driven by Thomas Frank’s push for more creative depth following James Maddison’s ACL injury.
Meanwhile, negotiations continue with Manchester City for Savinho. The Brazilian is keen on a move to North London, but City’s valuation of around €70 million remains a hurdle. With Savinho and Eze seen as pivotal to reinvigorating their attack, Spurs fans are optimistic yet anxious as the clock ticks down.
The injury list for Spurs presents some notable worries ahead of their formidable opponents in PSG. James Maddison's long-term absence due to an ACL injury represents a significant blow, especially given the impact this has on creative play. Dominic Solanke and Destiny Udogie, however, offer a glimmer of hope with their possible returns, providing Frank with a timely boost in options. Yet, Dejan Kulusevski's and Radu Dragusin’s injuries mean Frank’s squad remains stretched as crucial fixtures loom.
Navigating pre-season woes, Thomas Frank remains upbeat about the tactical adjustments needed at Spurs. The desire to implement a possession-based, aggressive style is clear, even as the club grapples with injuries to key players. Frank’s trust in youth and the squad's depth will be tested against PSG, easily one of Europe's toughest sides currently. The challenge remains to translate this evolving style into consistent performances, especially with fixtures against Manchester City and West Ham on the horizon.
