Tottenham transfer state of play: Done deals and possible next incomings and outgoings
Tottenham have had a fairly quiet winter transfer window so far.
Thomas Frank is under major pressure at Tottenham, and questions over his future as Spurs boss could present further recruitment issues ahead of the 2 February deadline.
Things have started to improve slightly on the pitch over the last week, with Frank’s side undefeated in their last three, as Tottenham beat Frankfurt 2-0 in the Champions League last time out.
But, with Spurs sitting 14th in the Premier League, there remains plenty of work to be done in order to make Frank’s Lilywhites reign a success, and some more new signings wouldn’t go amiss.
Tottenham News brings you all the players that have already moved to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and those who could yet still arrive and exit before the window shuts.
Tottenham’s winter transfer window done deals
As aforementioned, Tottenham’s contract signing pen hasn’t been required much so far this winter, with only two new arrivals in N17.
Conor Gallagher is the headline Spurs signing of the window so far, with the 25-year-old midfielder joining from Atletico Madrid.
It’s understood that Tottenham have paid between £34-35million for his services, and the England international has already slotted straight into Frank’s starting lineup.
The other new face is Brazilian left-back Souza, who has joined from Santos in a £13m deal.
At just 19, he’s definitely one for the future, but he’s already made just shy of 40 first-team appearances for Santos, and looks a very exciting prospect.
As for outgoings, Brennan Johnson is the headline departure, joining Crystal Palace in a £35m move.
Min-Hyeok Yang has joined Coventry on loan, whilst Jamie Donley has also secured another Championship loan, signing for Oxford United.
Manor Solomon has moved to Fiorentina on loan, whilst Kota Takai has also left temporarily, having signed for Borussia Monchengladbach, and Damola Ajayi has gone to Bromley on loan too.

Who might Tottenham sign before 2 February?
Tottenham are reportedly pushing to sign Leon Goretzka from Bayern Munich, with the 30-year-old central midfielder having been strongly linked to Spurs this week.
Goretzka is set to become a free agent in the summer, and it’s understood that Frank would like to secure his signature now rather than trying to win it on an open market auction at the end of the season.
Meanwhile, there have been murmurings over a potential Tottenham swoop for Raheem Sterling, but as of yet, no concrete interest has been confirmed following his release from Chelsea this week.
Tottenham are also said to be considering triggering the £34.7m release clause for Osasuna forward Victor Munoz, who is also reportedly on Real Madrid’s radar.
A pair of goalkeepers have also been touted with moves to N17, with Sunderland’s Robin Roefs and Wolves’ Sam Johnstone being mentioned as possible targets.
However, Tottenham don’t appear to have much hope of signing Omar Marmoush this winter, with the Man City forward said to be highly unlikely to leave the Etihad before the deadline.
Napoli’s Alessandro Buongiorno and Liverpool’s Andy Robertson could also be arriving to bolster Tottenham’s defensive ranks, whilst Aurelien Tchouameni is also a player that Tottenham are said to like.
Who could still leave Tottenham before window shuts?
Real Madrid have reportedly launched an £85m bid for Cristian Romero, which is a staggering amount of money for the 27-year-old if correct.
Romero is without doubt one of Spurs’ best and most important players, but an offer as big as that could prove very tough to turn down.
Randal Kolo Muani had been expected to be recalled by Paris Saint-Germain, with his Tottenham loan not going to plan whatsoever so far.
And, it’s understood that Muani’s former team, Juventus, are keen on bringing him back to Turin, where he netted 10 times in 22 appearances for them last season.
However, fresh reports on Thursday have revealed that Tottenham don’t currently hold any intention of cutting short his loan spell in N17, and so he’s now set to stay for the remainder of the campaign.
Meanwhile, it’s reported that a host of top clubs in England are very much interested in signing Luka Vuskovic, with the 18-year-old centre-back currently out on loan with Hamburg.
Spurs, if they were to receive a big offer for him, could decide to recall him back to North London before cashing in ahead of the deadline.
Another central defender that could be on his way out is Radu Dragusin, with clubs in Italy such as AC Milan understood to be keen, but he may not be allowed to leave unless another centre-back is signed first.
Destiny Udogie could be another one to keep an eye on ahead of the deadline, as there have been murmurings over a possible exit for him this winter.
