Tottenham Hotspur: Cup success followed by Premier League's

Overview

Tottenham Hotspur’s early 2026–27 campaign has seen contrasting results in cup and league play. Following a 5-1 Carabao Cup victory over Charlton Athletic, manager Roberto De Zerbi set a seasonal target for new £85 million signing Savio, challenging the winger to score between 10 and 12 goals to elevate the team’s competitive level. The match also featured goals from Dominic Solanke, Kevin Danso, and Mikey Moore, the latter of whom has agreed to a loan move to Bundesliga side Koln.

However, the team’s Premier League opener resulted in a 3-0 defeat to Brentford. De Zerbi criticized the performance, stating the squad “didn’t fight in the right way” and citing issues with physical readiness following the FIFA World Cup, as well as failures in winning crucial duels.

Despite the loss, De Zerbi expressed satisfaction with the club’s aggressive recruitment, which includes the arrivals of Savio and Omar Marmoush. The club is reportedly seeking one final targeted signing before the transfer deadline, with interest emerging in Nottingham Forest’s Neco Williams to bolster the defense. Internal discussions regarding further reinforcements are ongoing as the squad works toward tactical cohesion and peak physical condition.
