Levy to boost Tottenham transfer budget for January after new injury bombshell
Tottenham defender Destiny Udogie’s injury could help Ange Postecoglou persuade Daniel Levy to free up more funds in January, according to Give Me Sport.
The news outlet reported on 1 January that this could be done to accommodate a new left-back this month.
The 22-year-old’s injury is expected to keep him out of action for a few weeks with Postecoglou facing heat at the club.
Tottenham must bring in a new left-back this month
Udogie’s injury underscores the urgent need for the club’s recruitment team to work in overdrive to secure a quality replacement this January.
With the Italy international likely sidelined for several weeks, Spurs face a significant challenge in maintaining the balance and dynamism on the left flank, especially given the club’s ongoing injury crisis in the defensive line.
This situation not only exposes the team’s vulnerability but also increases the pressure on Postecoglou, who is already under scrutiny due to recent performances.
The recruitment team must act swiftly to identify a player who can step in seamlessly, providing both defensive solidity and attacking threat.
Postecoglou’s extensive network in football could prove invaluable here as leveraging his contacts might facilitate quicker negotiations or uncover hidden gems in the transfer market.
The right signing would not only cover the immediate gap but also elevate the squad’s performance, potentially turning around the Lilywhites’ season.
