According to the Daily Mail, Tottenham Hotspur are set to beat rivals Chelsea and Manchester United in the race to sign Blackburn Rovers teenage defender Ashley Phillips this summer. A product of the Blackburn Rovers youth academy, Phillips made his first-team debut for the EFL Championship club earlier this month, aged 17 and has accrued three appearances so far after featuring on the bench on a few occasions last season.
Harry Kane is widely considered the best player that the Tottenham Hotspurs have on the roster right now. Kane has been at the lead of some of their biggest victories over the years, and many fans feel that without Kane heading the team, the Spurs would not have been on some of the winning streaks that they have claimed in recent years.
The skill and popularity of Kane means that other clubs are always on the lookout for a possible transfer, and he’s become something of a serious hot commodity in professional English football. News about his contract with the Spurs has become public, and it’s believed that the player is looking to add a clause to his new, upcoming contract with the Spurs that would give him a way to release himself from the contract if he was to find a better position with another club.
The Tottenham Hotspurs have long been a part of the English Premier League since the inception of the event in 1992. And after many years of playing at mediocre levels and now seeing as many wins as other teams, the Hotspurs would eventually come into their own, and are now considered one of the best teams that the Premier League has to offer in 2022.
Today, the Hotspurs are one of the heavy hitters within the Premier League, and most other teams will have to face them at one point or another over the course of the season. Let’s look at some of the biggest wins in soccer games that the Hotspurs have claimed over the years.
The Tottenham Hotspurs have been monitoring James Garner, and it’s been reported that Manchester United are getting ready to put the midfielder up for sale at some point during the summer. Garner was a player that many fans of United had hoped to see getting a chance to perform during this season, but it looks like he might instead be moving on to a different team.
Garner had returned to Old Trafford during the summer after he had been a key player in helping Nottingham Forest find be promoted up the roster and has since been under the eye of a lot of different teams, with the Hotspurs being at the top of the pile.
Antonio Conte and Thomas Tuchel were the stars of the match in the latest game against the Tottenham Hotspurs and Chelsea, a match that ultimately ended in a 2-2 tie long into the stoppage time for the English Premier League 2022-23.
This isn’t the first time that Conte and Tuchel have come face-to-face on the field, and many fans would remember the 2016 events when Tottenham’s title challenge had ended in another 2-2 draw while playing against Chelsea, but just as much drama took place off the field as it did on it. Six years later, Tuchel and Conte were able to shake hands after the final whistle, although there was obviously tension, and it didn’t take long for the two to end up in a screaming match before players and coaches from both sides dived in and caused a huge scene.
According to Quotidiano Nazionale, Tottenham Hotspur are stepping up their efforts to sign AS Roma attacker Nicolo Zaniolo in a statement move this summer. Spurs are ready to push again for the 23-year-old Italian international, with a new bid expected to arrive from the north London club. The future of Nicolo Zaniolo remains uncertain despite heading into the final weeks of the transfer window. Reports last week claimed that he was set to sign a new contract with Roma. However, that does not appear to be the case as contract negotiations for the 23-year-old Italian international have been halted until the transfer window closes.
Following the blockbuster acquisition of Paulo Dybala on a free transfer, Roma are thought to be willing to listen to bids for the Italian international and may look to move Zaniolo on this summer if they receive a tempting offer. The Giallorossi have no intention of forcing Zaniolo out of Trigoria and will only deal if their price tag is met.
According to Il Messaggero, Tottenham Hotspur have set their sights on a potential move for Inter Milan midfield mainstay Nicolo Barella in the ongoing transfer window. Barella has been one of the standout performers in Italy over the past couple of years. His rise in prominence has been key to Inter Milan’s return to the top in Italian football. He was also a part of the Azzurri squad that won the UEFA Euro 2020 last year.
Even though Barella’s performances dipped somewhat towards the second half of the 2021/22 season, the midfielder is rated as one of the best in his position in the Italian top flight. He has been on the radars of some top clubs across Europe, with Real Madrid having had their sights on the 25-year-old for a long time, while clubs in England have also shown an interest.
According to a report from Diario AS, Atletico Madrid have expressed the desire to sign Emerson Royal. The Spanish giants believe there is a market opportunity to sign the Tottenham Hotspur underperforming full-back, who is coming on the back of a disappointing debut campaign in England. Formerly of Real Betis, Emerson officially joined Barcelona properly last summer to start a new chapter in his career. But his spell at Camp Nou came to an abrupt end when the Blaugrana decided to sanction his sale in the same window, with the 23-year-old defender joining Tottenham Hotspur.
Emerson was brought in to offer competition to Matt Doherty at right-back. But the Brazilian defender endured a disastrous start to his career in north London. The sacking of Nuno Espirito Santo did not change his fortunes much, with new Tottenham coach Antonio Conte also finding it difficult to extract the most out of the full-back. Indeed, Emerson failed to offer the desired output in the final third and could now be offloaded in the summer transfer window. Tottenham are in pole position to sign Djed Spence this summer as part of their attempts to bolster their options in the right wing-back position.
Inter Milan defender Alessandro Bastoni is ready to join Antonio Conte at Tottenham Hotspur during this summer’s transfer window according to journalist Alasdair Gold. Gold is a Tottenham Hotspur correspondent for Football London. He talked about Bastoni while fielding a question and answer session for Football London recently.
Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for Bastoni this summer, but it was reported that the Italian international might need convincing to swap Inter Milan for North London. However, the situation has changed with the aforementioned Gold stating that Bastoni is now open to a Spurs move though his preference is to stay in Italian football.
