The Spurs are reportedly amplifying their endeavors to procure the services of one of the most promising midfield orchestrators globally.
The Bees begin their top-flight journey against the Clarets on Saturday, with notable enhancements anticipated following a disappointing 17th-place standing the prior season under the leadership of Ange Postecoglou.
Captain Son Heung-min has departed from the squad, while Ghanaian attacker Mohammed Kudus has been acquired in a significant transfer. The question remains: who might be the next addition to the north London side?
Tottenham desire a creative midfield icon as a pivotal summer acquisition
With the prospect of participating in the Champions League, Frank’s initial season with Tottenham is poised to be significant, potentially encompassing considerable anticipation and strain.
The Danish manager has not previously been involved in the competition, and elevated expectations are anticipated, particularly considering the Lilywhites’ triumph in the Europa League the previous season, where they secured a 1-0 victory against Manchester United in Bilbao.
With the introduction of European football, a more extensive roster becomes essential, particularly to mitigate the additional demands placed on the already-delicate Spurs squad, as evidenced during the previous season.
According to reports from Fichajes in Spain, Real Sociedad’s standout player, Takefusa Kubo, has communicated his desire to depart from the club before the closure of the summer transfer window. This declaration has, predictably, alerted numerous prominent European clubs.
Tottenham, alongside West Ham, Everton, and Bournemouth, have reportedly demonstrated preliminary interest in the Japanese playmaker, whose release clause remains active at €60 million (£51.7 million). Initial offers are anticipated to be around €40 million (£34.5 million). Transfermarkt estimates his value at €30 million (£25.8 million).
Milan is also keenly monitoring Kubo’s circumstances. The 24-year-old—recognized in FourFourTwo’s compilation of the foremost right wingers worldwide—participated in 52 matches for La Real during the preceding season, showcasing his resilience across various competitions, contributing seven goals and providing four assists.
From FourFourTwo‘s perspective, Kubo’s designation is consistently linked to the Premier League; however, his capabilities will undergo assessment in various facets within the English league.
Whether Tottenham proceeds with a formal proposal at this juncture remains uncertain; nonetheless, his prospects currently appear unfavorable within the Basque region.
