Transfers Summer 2026 Transfer Thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Making the assumption we are still in the PL next season, but not in Europe, and that Maddison and Kulusevski make full recoveries, I think we need a squad of 22 senior players (2 for each position with some flexibility e.g. Gray, Simons, Odobert, Maddison, Kulusevski etc. can play multiple positions), supplemented by academy players

GK: New GK, Kinsky
RB: Spence, Porro
RCB: Romero, Danso
LCB: VdB, Vuskovic
LB: Udogie, Souza*
DCM: new DCM, Gray
#8: Sarr, Bergvall,
#10: Simon, Maddison
RWF: Kulusevski, Kudus
LWF: New LWF, Odobert
ST: New CF, Solanke

*If Souza is deemed as not ready then loan him out and buy a new LB.


This enables us to sell / release / do not renew:
  1. Vicario
  2. Dragusin
  3. Davies
  4. Bissouma
  5. Bentancur
  6. Palhinha
  7. Tel
  8. Richarlison
  9. Muani
And bring in 4 new players:
  1. GK
  2. DCM
  3. LWF
  4. ST
Those 4 players need to be peak years (25-20), first team ready, and all players worth £200-300k per week.
You’ve got to remember how many squad players we’ve sold for actual money in the past several seasons. Not that many. Selling seven this summer just isn’t going to happen.

Davies is out of contract in the summer and Muani and Palhinha are loans that end. So it's 6 to sell. We showed in January we are going to be more ruthless in getting rid of players (when we sold Johnson) than when Levy was in charge of player sales.
 
Expected to get beat before the game and really our season starts after this with huge games that will shape the club for many years. I get we have injuries but my God we are so poor technically. Constantly making errors leading to goals, zero attacking threat and lack of athleticism, strength and general technical ability is badly lacking. I know we are against a really good team but I really can't see where wins will come from.
 
Massive rebuild needed in the championship. Players like Spence don’t have what it takes to get us promoted, they’ll have to play more games than they had to this last 2 seasons with Europe and that was too much for them.
 
Chalobah being linked with villa. If (and it's a big if) we stay up I wouldn't mind seeing him replace romero. think chelsea would sell to us too.
