Spurs have made swift moves to kick off the January transfer window, already securing Timo Werner and with Radu Dragusin set to be unveiled soon. Even with these talented additions, the club is still exploring midfield options to strengthen their squad.
Ange’s resurgent Tottenham made an impressive start to the season by going undefeated in their first 10 matches and clinching the top spot in the Premier League.
However, the team has since been plagued by a significant number of injuries to key players, making the task of winning much more difficult for Ange.
As the North London club enters the second half of the season, it appears they are determined to support Ange with the necessary personnel to achieve peak performance.
They’ve already signed former Chelsea striker Timo Werner to cover for Son’s absence and add depth to the forward line. Furthermore, they are finalizing the deal for Genoa CFC’s center-back Radu Dragusin.
In addition to these acquisitions, Spurs are now on the lookout for potential midfielders to bolster their squad.
Young talent Hayden Hackney from Middlesbrough has been a subject of interest, with speculation of interest from Manchester United and Liverpool. Meanwhile, Conor Gallagher has been linked with a move to North London, but his increased price tag may postpone a potential move.
Tottenham could also consider young Danish player Morten Frendrup from Genoa, as well as AS Roma’s Bryan Cristante.
Regardless of their choice, Spurs are expected to emerge from this transfer window with a pool of new talents to choose from for upcoming matches.
However, it’s unlikely that Spurs will be able to afford Gallagher given his current valuation and their extensive transfer plans this window. With the budget constraints, they may have to seek alternative options to strengthen their midfield.
Despite the return of Rodrigo Bentancur and Giovani Lo Celso’s contributions, Spurs will be without Yves Bissouma and Pape Sarr this month due to their international commitments. As a result, further strengthening the midfield is a priority.
While the return of James Maddison will provide a welcome boost, the club will likely pursue additional reinforcements to fortify a midfield that has been stretched.
