Fabrizio Romano surprises Tottenham fans with latest transfer update

Tottenham finished fifth in the league last season and missed out on a Champions League spot in recent weeks.

Their form declined towards the end of last season and Aston Villa beat them to finish in fourth place, depriving Ange Postecoglou’s team of a place in Europe’s elite competition.

After losing their star player Harry Kane to Bayern Munich last summer, Spurs were expected to struggle. However, under Postecoglou’s guidance, they showed that they can cope with the loss of Kane and still play attacking and attractive football.

Son Heung-min, supported by players like James Maddison and Richarlison, performed exceptionally well and took on the leadership role at the club.

The arrival of manager Postecoglou has raised the standard of a number of players and under his leadership the North Londoners are on the right track.

However, they need new players to keep pace with their Premier League rivals, who have all strengthened their squads this summer.

Spurs have managed to sign Archie Gray from Tottenham to strengthen their midfielder while also extending Timo Werner’s loan deal.

More players are expected to arrive soon and Fabrizio Romano has confirmed this, expecting the Premier League club to be busy.

The transfer specialist revealed on Playback:

“I expect Tottenham to be active and busy in the transfer market next week.”

It remains to be seen who they will sign in the coming week, it could well be a new striker as they are actively looking to add to the attacking position.

Tottenham are looking for a new striker this summer

Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for Brentford striker Ivan Toney, while Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke has also been mentioned.

Toney’s contract with Brentford expires next summer, making it easier for Spurs to sign him as Brentford are willing to let him leave now rather than lose him for free next year.

Solanke played 41 games in all competitions last season, scoring 21 goals, and could be a valuable addition to Spurs’ attack.

If Postecoglou can get either of the two strikers mentioned above, he will be very happy. That would make Spurs a feared player next season.
