Tottenham face make-or-break Marc Guehi situation after Crystal Palace triumph
Tottenham’s chances of signing Marc Guehi are now clear after the Eagles secured European football.
Winning the Europa League will be the only thing on the minds of those at Tottenham currently, though attention will swiftly turn to the summer transfer window.
In order to avoid a repeat of this season’s failures, recruitment is going to be crucial for Spurs, and they will be afforded no margin for error.
Guehi is one of those to have been linked, and it is evident what Tottenham now need to do if they are to stand a chance of winning his signature.
Europa League success is a must for Spurs
With a 17th-place finish on the cards in the Premier League, it is obvious that Spurs have turned their full attention to the Europa League, and rightfully so.
To bring the trophy home to North London is going to be crucial for several reasons, but none as important as their recruitment plans.
A season without European football would be a disaster for Tottenham, and would see their chances of recruiting top quality restricted even further, and the same can be said for Guehi.

| Guehi | 44 | 3 | 2 |
Having been linked with a move to Tottenham, Guehi has now sealed Europa League football with the Eagles, and he certainly won’t abandon that for a move to Spurs, especially if they fail to qualify for the Champions League.
So, for Spurs, their situation is clear; if you want to sign Guehi, you simply need to beat Manchester United in the Europa League final.
Tottenham may need to look elsewhere for defensive reinforcements
Several players have already been linked with a move to Tottenham, and it is imperative that those who do arrive are capable of improving the side.
Spurs should be challenging for titles, but instead, have spent the entire season closer to relegation, showcasing just how much improvement is needed this summer.
