Tottenham Hotspur ramps up summer transfer spend under Roberto De Zerbi

Tottenham Hotspur have embarked on a record‑breaking summer, spending close to £240 million on six new players as manager Roberto De Zerbi builds a squad for his first full season. The club has already added defenders Marcos Senesi, Andy Robertson, Jan Paul van Hecke and Martin Dubravka, plus midfielders Mateus Fernandes and Sandro Tonali, and a further £250 million is reportedly available for more signings.

Club insiders say the next priority is the forward line. A source told GiveMeSport’s Market Madness podcast, “As we’ve just heard, Tottenham are going to be ambitious. They had £100 million of capital injected into the club. They want a left winger, very possibly a number nine, too, so keep an eye on Tottenham right up until deadline day, because there are more signings to come.”

Tottenham are linked with Bournemouth striker Eli Kroupi Junior, who scored 13 goals in his debut Premier League season. Football journalist Alasdair Gold noted, “There’s interest, of course, but everyone’s interested… he’s one of the young stars of the Premier League, everyone wants him.” The Cherries have set an £80 million price tag, and clubs such as Arsenal and Paris Saint‑Germain are also reported to be monitoring the French U‑21 international. The aggressive recruiting strategy reflects the new hierarchy’s ambition to transform the North London side after narrowly avoiding relegation last season.
