Transfers Summer 2026 Transfer Thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

This is how it should be. A mixture of young and older PL experienced players. Can do a job for 3 seasons. It’s a smart Redknapp transfer. We do need a proper quality playmaker and striker though. And new wingers……

It’s absolutely no good if it’s not attached to quality. Robertson is way past his best.

And we fell short, not because we lacked “winners”, but because we lacked enough quality on the pitch, we lost out to the Chelsea’s and Liverpool’s because they had more of that quality throughout the whole team and bench.

We had enough quality to beat those teams... thats a fallacy.

Both things can be true. And I dont believe we didnt have enough quality to beat those teams.

If he wasn't always injured and physically done, I'd have liked it. Milner and Xhaka aren't always inured. And given that he's going to be in competition with our LB who is also, very injured, I don't think this feels risk free at all. If Udogie wasn't out so often, I'd be fine with it. But this feels like sleepwalking into another disaster.

No reported injuries in last 2 seasons according to transfer market so not sure where you're getting the always injured from.

If we have even the slightest chance of getting Baleba he should be by far our biggest target.

The drive, energy and tenacity he'd bring would singlehandedly take this team out of it's current coma.

Would be a hugely significant signing, one which impacts the dynamic of the team that much literally any fee would practically be worth it.

Fully agree. People are pining for Wharton but one of the biggest reasons we are so poor is we lose the midfield battle 9/10 times when we don’t have a fit Bentancur in there. We were so difficult to play against under Poch because of Dembele and Wanyama dominating. A Baleba and Bentancur midfield 2 would turn that around to us winning the midfield battle 9/10 times.

Honestly, aside from probably Archie and Kinsky, I'm fine with any of the squad leaving.

That’s show I feel. Porro’s good technically, but his defending is so average. Got lots of faith that De Zefbi’s system will see us progress the ball much better without the need of a quarterback RB.

If we can get £150m for Romero, Porro, Vicario, Richy, and a handful of others it’ll be a good start to the summer.
 
Im fairly happy with Robertson tbh.

I get the idea that our squad is much more of a lads social club gathering than a top level elite sports team and it needs addressing. Our so called leaders have been diabolical and at every chance when challenged on field we have wilted and folded.

Robertson will bring focus and drive within the group and we need 1 or 2 of those around. Its not a glamorous one but I think he will still have plenty to offer on field with his experience.
