Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly beaten Borussia Dortmund and Juventus to the signature of a key target, with the player opting for a move to north London, according to fresh reports.
Despite facing a serious relegation battle with just four Premier League matches remaining, manager Roberto De Zerbi and his team are pressing ahead with summer recruitment plans, taking advantage of opportunities in the market.
Spurs are accelerating their preparations for the next window, with their transfer strategy gradually becoming clearer. They have already reached a verbal agreement with Andy Robertson, the Liverpool FC captain, who is set to become a free agent at the end of the season. The experienced left-back is expected to be part of a defensive rebuild, with personal terms largely agreed ahead of his exit from Anfield.
Meanwhile, Tottenham remain active elsewhere, with links to Leon Goretzka intensifying. Reports indicate the club have offered the FC Bayern Munich midfielder a two-year deal as they look to strengthen their squad for next season—provided they retain their top-flight status.
In defence, Marcos Senesi has emerged as a priority target. The AFC Bournemouth centre-back has reportedly rejected approaches from both Dortmund and Juventus, favouring a switch to Spurs instead. With his contract set to expire, he is expected to leave on a free transfer after deciding against renewing his deal.
Talks between Tottenham and Senesi’s representatives are said to be at an advanced stage, although a final agreement has not yet been reached. While both sides are keen to complete the move, one major factor could still influence the outcome—Spurs’ league status.
There is also interest from Liverpool, managed by Arne Slot, who are keeping a close eye on the situation as they consider defensive reinforcements, particularly with uncertainty surrounding Ibrahima Konaté.
If Tottenham were to be relegated, it could give Liverpool an opportunity to re-enter the race for Senesi, potentially shifting the balance away from north London.
With potential deals for Goretzka, Senesi, and Robertson all developing, Spurs appear to be laying the groundwork for a major rebuild. However, their success in the transfer market may ultimately depend on whether they can secure survival on the pitch.
