Tottenham’s transfer targets for January 2025 | OneFootball

Tottenham Hotspur’s Premier League season has spiraled into chaos, with Spurs dropping to the lower reaches following a 4-3 home loss to Chelsea last weekend.

Under-pressure manager Ange Postecoglou must turn Tottenham players‘ fortunes around quickly to prevent further downfall and could dive back into the market to bolster his team.

Despite a substantial crisis in North London, Daniel Levy reportedly ponders backing Spurs’ bid to return into contention for a coveted European finish with a big winter spending.

While BBC contemplates whether Postecoglou is running out of time, the 59-year-old manager considers strengthening his depleted squad in the January transfer window.

Davide Frattesi

Sources in Italy claim the out-of-sorts Premier League heavyweights are willing to fork out a significant fee to lure Davide Frattesi away from Inter Milan.

Simone Inzaghi’s charges paid Sassuolo around €35 million to sign the 25-year-old permanently in the summer.

However, it may take well north of that figure to convince the defending Serie A champions to offload their box-to-box midfielder despite his relatively sparse playing time at Giuseppe Meazza.

Frustrated with a lack of first-team opportunities, Frattesi could force a move, but unless he presses the issue, Spurs are unlikely to get this deal over the line in January.

Rodrigo Bentancur’s suspension has left Postecoglou short of reliable midfield options, intensifying pressure on Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr.

Tottenham could, therefore, use a player of Frattesi’s characteristics.

As aforementioned, persuading Inter to give the green light could be easier said than done.

Matheus Cunha

Wolverhampton Wanderers face an imminent threat of relinquishing their seven-year tenure in the Premier League, increasing the possibility of a mass exodus from Molineux next summer.

Relegation to the Championship would likely result in numerous first-team stars leaving the West Midlands, but Spurs cannot wait that long to materialise their interest in Matheus Cunha.

Unfazed by Wolves’ dire situation, Cunha has developed into one of the most highly-rated forwards in England’s top flight, drawing interest from several clubs, including Tottenham.

With Gary O’Neil’s side firmly embroiled in an intense battle for survival, the former Atletico Madrid star could fancy a move to North London, where he’d fight for European football.

Cunha would be a notable upgrade on Postecoglou’s current offensive options, barring Son Heung-min and Brennan Johnson.

Richarlison cannot leave the treatment room, while Timo Werner should return to RB Leipzig at the end of the season following a rough patch at the start of the 2024/25 campaign.

With that in mind, Cunha’s arrival makes perfect sense.
