While Spurs have shown plenty of promise under the Australian manager, it's clear that there’s still room for improvement, and Tottenham are ready to back Postecoglou in the transfer market.
Right now, Spurs are in a solid spot in the Premier League, feeling good after a recent win against Manchester City.
In this context, Tottenham are also gearing up for the upcoming transfer windows with plans to strengthen Ange Postecoglou’s squad.
The North London club is reportedly eyeing new talent, particularly in attacking areas, where competition is fierce for a spot in the starting lineup.

According to TBR, one player who has caught Tottenham’s eye is Matheus Cunha, the 25-year-old forward from Wolverhampton Wanderers, who has been in scintillating form this season.
Cunha has been one of the standout performers in the Premier League, netting seven goals and registering three assists.
Since the start of last season, only Tottenham’s Heung-Min Son has contributed more goals and assists within the Spurs squad, with 29 goal contributions in 44 games.
This impressive form has drawn the attention of several top clubs, including Manchester United, Newcastle, and Napoli, who are also monitoring the Brazilian forward.
However, Spurs are keen to add him to their forward line, believing his versatility could provide a valuable asset to Postecoglou’s attacking options.
Cunha is primarily used as a number 10, but his flexibility allows him to operate across the front three or as a central striker, making him an ideal candidate to bolster Tottenham’s attacking depth.
The Brazilian’s ability to adapt to various attacking roles has made him one of the most sought-after players in the Premier League.
Wolves manager Gary O’Neil has been full of praise for Cunha, claiming that the Brazilian has the potential to reach the level of top-tier players like Martin Odegaard of Arsenal and Bernardo Silva of Manchester City.
After Wolves’ 4-1 win over Fulham, as reported by The Spurs News, O’Neil spoke about Cunha’s incredible talent and ability to produce consistent performances.
“I love working with him. His talent is incredible, obviously. But if you watch the top players, they’re able to do it week in week out. Watch people like Bernardo Silva, Martin Odegaard. They’re all top with or without the ball and Matheus, the numbers he’s producing at the minute are up there with everybody.” O’Neil said.
Tottenham’s interest in Cunha shows they’re serious about adding more attacking firepower to their squad.
