Here’s a roundup of the latest Tottenham Hotspur news and rumors:
1. **Arsenal’s Injuries Before North London Derby:**
As the much-anticipated North London derby approaches, Arsenal is grappling with injuries to key players. Martin Odegaard twisted his ankle while playing for Norway, and Declan Rice is suspended following a red card. Mikel Merino and Riccardo Calafiori are also sidelined. This opens up opportunities for Tottenham to exploit Arsenal’s weakened midfield.
2. **Sergio Reguilon’s Uncertain Future:**
Tottenham fullback Sergio Reguilon, who has been on the transfer list, remains in limbo as potential deals have fallen through. Although he was linked with a move to Lille, disagreements derailed the transfer. Reguilon may yet move to Turkey, with Fenerbahce interested, but if he stays, there could be a slim chance of reintegration under Ange Postecoglou.
3. **Tottenham Unlikely to Make Free Agent Signings:**
While there’s been speculation about Spurs dipping into the free-agent market, reports from pundit Alasdair Gold suggest it’s unlikely. Ange Postecoglou is focused on long-term planning rather than short-term fixes, and unless significant injuries occur, Spurs won’t be adding free agents like Adrien Rabiot to their ranks.
4. **Son Heung-min’s Potential Contract Extension:**
Following Harry Kane’s departure, Son Heung-min has become the focal point of Tottenham’s attack. With his contract set to expire next summer, Spurs are looking to extend it, possibly for more than just one year. Despite offers from Saudi clubs, Son appears committed to continuing his career at the top level with Spurs.
5. **Paulinho’s Retirement Tribute:**
Former Tottenham midfielder Paulinho, part of the famous “Bale money” signings, recently retired. After struggling to adapt in the Premier League, Paulinho went on to find success in China and even had a stint at Barcelona. Fellow Spurs players, including Lucas Moura, have paid tribute to Paulinho’s impressive international career.
With the North London derby looming and key transfer news in the air, it’s a buzzing time for Tottenham fans!
