Tottenham news round-up: Gibbs-White open goal, plus another sensational signing
Tottenham have been linked with some stellar names as they look to bolster their squad for the new season.
Mohammed Kudus has been the standout signing for Spurs, having arrived from West Ham for £55million.
In terms of outgoing, the Lilywhites have managed to hold on to Cristian Romero and Son Heung-min so far, while Yves Bissouma could leave.
Now, there has been another update on Morgan Gibbs-White, while Real Madrid’s Rodrygo has been the talk of Tottenham.
With speculation around several players, Tottenham News brings you the latest.
Tottenham have clear Gibbs-White run after Man City update
It has been reported that Man City have no intention to rival Tottenham for the signing of the England international.
This is welcome news to the North London outfit, although there are several hoops to jump through before a deal can be struck.
| Morgan Gibbs-White’s 2024/25 Premier League statistics | Total |
| Appearances | 34 |
| Goals | 7 |
| Expected goals (xG) | 6.34 |
| Assists | 8 |
| Expected assists | 4.69 |
| Big chances created | 10 |
Before the 2024/25 season had even finished, there was talk of Man City making a move for Nottingham Forest’s captain.
However, as the summer has developed, it is the Lilywhites who have been pursuing the 25-year-old, although there have been several snags.
While Spurs thought they had triggered Gibbs-White’s release clause, Forest have since reported them to the Premier League for an illegal approach.
Rodrygo linked with sensational Spurs transfer
The Real Madrid man faces an uncertain future in Spain amid the attacking options Xabi Alonso has at his disposal.
Furthermore, the Brazilian international was an unused substitute during Los Blancos’ 3-0 defeat to PSG in the FIFA Club World Cup.
While the forward has been linked with the likes of Liverpool and Arsenal, nothing has developed on that front.
Now, Tottenham are said to be interested in Rodrygo, while Bayern Munich and Chelsea are also reportedly keen.
The 24-year-old would be some acquisition for whichever club could land him, but Real would command a hefty fee.
On current evidence, Spurs are nowhere near done in the transfer market and are eyeing real talent.
However, it remains to be seen whether they can strike deals that will push them towards the top four.
