Tottenham Hotspur Prioritising Exits Before Pushing Ahead With Attacking Reinforcements
Squad trimming comes first
Tottenham are set to focus on offloading players before diving deeper into the transfer market, with Roberto De Zerbi continuing his squad rebuild by putting departures ahead of fresh arrivals. Club sources suggest the priority right now is freeing up space, with several senior figures potentially heading for the exit before the window shuts.
Five names in the exit conversation
Pape Matar Sarr, Cristian Romero, Manor Solomon, Guglielmo Vicario and Richarlison have all been mentioned as possible departures, with Spurs hoping at least a couple of that group move on before they push forward with further business.
Big bids could tempt Spurs on players not for sale
Even players not officially on the market could leave if the price is right. Lucas Bergvall’s rapid rise has reportedly pushed his valuation to somewhere between £50 million and £60 million, while Djed Spence could fetch a fee in the £35 million to £45 million range should a strong offer land.
Attack remains the long-term target
Once the squad has been trimmed, Tottenham’s recruitment staff are expected to turn their full attention to the frontline, with two key profiles on the wishlist:
A flexible forward who can operate centrally or out wide
A genuine left winger to add pace and creative spark
Savinho and highly rated youngster Eli Junior Kroupi remain the standout names on Spurs’ radar for those roles.
Housekeeping before headlines
Despite the growing wishlist, Tottenham are in no rush. De Zerbi and the recruitment team reportedly want the squad’s exits sorted first, giving them a clearer picture before committing to further attacking signings. Fans may be hungry for new faces, but for now, Spurs’ focus stays fixed on clearing the way out before opening the door to fresh arrivals.
