£25 million attacker who Ange personally wants has agreed to join Tottenham
Tottenham Hotspur’s summer transfer plans are in full swing, with manager Ange Postecoglou securing a key target for £25 million. This acquisition highlights Spurs’ ambition to strengthen their attacking lineup ahead of the new season.
Tottenham’s summer activity began swiftly with the extension of Timo Werner’s loan deal. Originally set to end in December 2023, chairman Daniel Levy successfully negotiated with RB Leipzig to retain Werner for the entire 2024/2025 season.
Furthermore, Spurs have an option to make Werner’s move permanent next summer for just £8.5 million, showcasing shrewd business acumen.
Despite securing Werner, Tottenham’s transfer ambitions extend further. Postecoglou is keen on adding more attacking options, including a potential long-term replacement for Harry Kane and another attacking midfielder.
This aggressive approach underscores Spurs’ commitment to bolstering their squad depth and enhancing their offensive capabilities.
One notable target is Marcus Edwards from Sporting Lisbon. Tottenham are considering re-signing the “fantastic” former forward, leveraging their advantageous 35% sell-on clause.
This clause allows Spurs to potentially secure Edwards for just £11 million, making it a financially astute move.
Reports from Portugal indicate that Tottenham could benefit significantly from this clause, re-acquiring a talented player who can add dynamism to their attack.
Tottenham’s transfer strategy is not limited to attackers. Postecoglou and the club’s management are also focused on strengthening the midfield and defense.
This holistic approach aims to address multiple areas of the squad, ensuring a well-rounded and competitive team for the upcoming season.
With a key £25 million attacker agreeing to join and the astute re-negotiation of Timo Werner’s loan, Tottenham Hotspur’s summer transfer window is off to a promising start.
The potential re-signing of Marcus Edwards and further defensive and midfield reinforcements highlight the club’s comprehensive strategy to build a formidable squad.
As the summer progresses, Spurs fans can look forward to more exciting developments and a strengthened team ready to compete at the highest level.
Another option for Spurs could be Poland international winger Sebastian Szymanski. The Fenerbahce star, who represented his country at Euro 2024, is fresh off the back of an incredible season in the Turkish Super Lig.
He racked up an impressive 13 goals and 19 assists in all competitions for Fenerbahce last season, and there are suggestions he could leave for as little as £25 million.
According to Aslinda this week, Spurs have actually made a low-ball offer for the player, coming in at around £15 million. It was apparently rejected out of hand, but Postecoglou’s side are set to try again with another proposal. While club-to-club talks go on, Tottenham are at least said to have the green light on personal terms.
Aslinda also state that Szymanski has agreed Tottenham personal terms over a four-year contract, and will fly for his medical at Hotspur Way if Fenerbahce and Spurs can find an agreement on price. It’s added that Postecoglou personally wants the 25-year-old at his club for next season.
“He is a very productive player when viewed from the perspective of the inside right, number 8.5,” said football scout Berat Kunt on his performance against France at the Euros.
“He has high pressing power, is close to scoring, and is effective in playing without the ball. When he increases his responsibility in the game setup, he reaches another level.”
