  • Tottenham Hotspur is actively strengthening its squad for the 2026-2027 season after narrowly avoiding relegation.
  • The club has reportedly agreed to sign defenders Micky van de Ven from Wolfsburg and Destiny Udogie from Udinese.
  • Tottenham is also pursuing Manchester City winger Savinho and is interested in Brighton's players, potentially following manager Roberto De Zerbi's former club strategy.

Tottenham Hotspur, having secured their Premier League status for the upcoming season by finishing 17th, is now focusing on reinforcing its squad for the 2026-2027 campaign. The club is making swift moves to bolster its defense and attack.

Reports indicate that Tottenham has reached agreements to sign defenders Micky van de Ven from Wolfsburg and Destiny Udogie from Udinese. These signings aim to solidify the team's backline as they prepare for a more competitive season.

The club's transfer targets also include Manchester City's promising winger Savinho. Furthermore, Tottenham appears to be targeting players from Brighton & Hove Albion, potentially mirroring the recruitment strategy employed by their former manager Roberto De Zerbi during his tenure there. This suggests a focus on players familiar with De Zerbi's tactical approach.

These strategic acquisitions signal Tottenham's ambition to build a stronger, more competitive team, moving away from the struggles of the previous season and aiming for a higher league position in the future.
