Ivan Perisic: A Return to Hajduk Split on the Horizon?
Ivan Perisic’s future at Tottenham Hotspur remains uncertain as his contract is set to expire at the end of the current season. According to Nazar Kinsella, the Croatian winger is currently weighing his options. Hajduk Split, the club where Perisic honed his skills in the academy, believes they are in pole position to secure his signature. The Croatian side is reportedly eager to make their move in the upcoming January transfer window.
Giovani Lo Celso’s Injury Woes Continue
Tottenham’s Argentine midfielder, Giovani Lo Celso, is facing a race against time to be fit for the Premier League clash against Sheffield United. As reported by the Standard, Lo Celso’s recent appearances have been marred by injuries. After a brief stint as a substitute in the Premier League, he was forced off at halftime during the Fulham game due to a quad injury. Tottenham fans will be hoping for a swift recovery for the talented playmaker.
Contract Extension Talks for Heung-Min Son
Tottenham’s South Korean star, Heung-Min Son, might be in line for a contract extension. Paul O Keefe reports that informal discussions regarding a new deal have already commenced. Son, who has been a pivotal figure for Spurs over the years, will undoubtedly be a top priority for the club’s management.
Tottenham’s Elusive Bonus Structure
In a candid revelation, goalkeeper Ben Foster shared insights into Tottenham’s bonus structure, as told to him by former Spurs left-back, Danny Rose. The bonus payments, as described, seem almost unattainable. Players would only receive a bonus for defeating one of the “big six” Premier League teams, and that too with a margin of at least two goals.
Foster recounted a particular instance shared by Rose, where Spurs were leading 2-0 against a top side, only to concede a late goal. Despite the victory, the players missed out on their bonuses, leading to a mix of disappointment and disbelief.
In conclusion, as the season progresses, Tottenham Hotspur finds itself at the crossroads of contract negotiations, injury concerns, and internal dynamics. With the January transfer window approaching, it will be interesting to see how the North London club navigates these challenges.
