Tottenham is competing with Aston Villa to secure Conor Gallagher from Atletico Madrid. Additionally, reports indicate that they have made a bid for a star from Real Madrid, and there are updates regarding the possible dismissal of Thomas Frank.
As consistently reported, Spurs are looking to enhance their squad in various positions this month, recognizing that their current roster is not up to par.
This need for improvement has become evident in Tottenham’s recent matches, as they were eliminated from the FA Cup by Aston Villa yesterday and have earned just two points from their last six Premier League fixtures, leaving them in 14th place.
Tottenham is eager to enhance their league position and aim for success in the Champions League, especially after winning the Europa League last season.
New acquisitions are essential for these ambitions, with Spurs considering moves for players from two prominent LaLiga clubs this month, alongside the imminent signing of Brazilian left-back Souza.
Tottenham Set to Pursue Conor Gallagher
Atletico Madrid is open to allowing Gallagher to leave this month, provided their requirements are met. They are willing to accept a loan arrangement that includes a buy obligation, with several Premier League clubs expressing interest.
Gallagher is eager to return to the Premier League as he attempts to regain a spot in the England squad, which has been challenging due to limited playing time at Atletico.
Aston Villa has recently entered the race for Gallagher, with our transfer expert confirming that Unai Emery’s team has taken a decisive step for the 25-year-old. Our correspondent notes that Tottenham views this as a crucial opportunity to secure Gallagher.
Tottenham Makes Bid for Real Madrid Player
In other developments, Tottenham has reportedly made a surprising £52m bid for Real Madrid’s Brahim Diaz to fill the gap left by the injured Mohammed Kudus. Diaz is a quality player but has not featured regularly under Xabi Alonso, starting only three LaLiga matches this season.
Diaz can play multiple attacking roles, thus providing versatility for Tottenham. According to reports, Madrid is considering the offer, although the source has a history of making unverified claims.
Division over Thomas Frank’s Future
Meanwhile, insiders have revealed that Tottenham’s leadership is divided regarding the potential sacking of Frank. While some club officials believe he is a good fit, concerns were raised about his system not aligning well with the squad.
There is apprehension that while players appreciate Frank, they might not fully buy into his strategies, raising concerns at higher club levels.
