Tottenham seal double signing as teenager now arrives from Leyton Orient
The Joe Lewis family started to deliver on their promise to propel Tottenham’s sporting success over the summer.
Spurs’ monstrous summer transfer window is part of the reason why it has been suggested that Daniel Levy stepping down as Tottenham chairman was planned.
Tottenham signed Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig as their marquee signing, although it seems that mantle had already been seized by Mohammed Kudus.
Meanwhile, it is believed that the Lilywhites could already be thinking about the winter transfer window.
But as Spurs move deeper into the competitive season, their hierarchy continues to deliver the goods from elsewhere.
Tottenham sign Jacob Collins-Fay from Leyton Orient
Tottenham have completed the signing of Jacob Collins-Fay from Leyton Orient, according to Lilywhite Rose via X on 5 October.
This comes after Spurs signed midfielder Austen Ball in a double-academy swoop for the Lilywhites.
It is no secret that the North London side are keen to invest in their youth.
Mikey Moore lifted the UEFA Europa League in his first official season with the senior team, while Luca Williams-Barnett has signed his first professional contract at Tottenham after earning his senior debut against Doncaster Rovers in the Carabao Cup.
Both Collins-Frank and Ball are seen as some of the most promising youngsters in their generation.
As such, there will be an expectation that both flourish while in North London.

When could Tottenham fans see some of their youngsters in action?
There is a lot of belief among Tottenham fans in their young core, with hopes to see a couple more in action this season.
However, this will be difficult for a number of reasons.
The Carabao Cup has always been a way to give youngsters some minutes with the first team. But its current format means that Spurs are likely to face Premier League teams here on out, with Newcastle United their next challenge.
The Lilywhites also have a difficult league schedule after the international break.
- Tottenham will face Monaco, Copenhagen and PSG in the UEFA Champions League
- Spurs will play Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United in the Premier League
These are hardly fixtures that Frank will want to trust his young players with.
However, depending on how these games go, Spurs supporters could see some of their youngsters take to the pitch during league games when the schedule becomes tighter and Champions League football enters its peak, providing Spurs qualify for the knockout rounds.
