Tottenham Hotspur’s impressive start to the season under Ange Postecoglou deserves commendation, considering they lost their star player Harry Kane in the summer. Despite this setback, the team has showcased their best form since Mauricio Pochettino’s successful years in North London, with players like James Maddison shining on the field.
What’s even more alarming for their Premier League rivals is that Postecoglou’s side is far from being the finished product. They still require several new additions, whether it’s a striker or a noteworthy talent from La Liga, as they have reportedly been scouting a particular player in recent weeks.
Spurs made astute signings during the summer transfer window, and Maddison’s performances have been nothing short of exceptional this season. The England international has contributed to seven goals in just eight league games, with two goals and five assists, making an electrifying impact at his new club. The club’s chairman, Dani Levy, and the entire North London community will hope that their future recruits can replicate Maddison’s success, whether it’s in January or next summer.
The latest transfer news concerning Javi Guerra suggests that the Valencia midfielder could be one of the players added to Spurs’ squad. According to 90min, the club has sent scouts to observe the young Spanish talent in recent weeks, hinting at a possible move. However, acquiring Guerra will come at a significant cost, as his release clause reportedly stands at £86m (€100m), and his contract with Valencia extends until 2027.
Valencia is also determined to keep hold of their promising player, with their sporting director, Miguel Angel Corona, stating:
“We recognize that we have a player with immense potential for the future and the ability to perform at a high level presently. That’s why the club has promoted him to the first team in recent months. It is not our intention to sell him to any other club.”
