Tottenham Hotspur’s transfer plans and their players’ international duties continue to be a focal point. Here’s a comprehensive update on the latest developments.
Transfer Updates
- Trevor Chalobah Interest Cooled: Tottenham have reportedly lost interest in Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah due to his recent injury issues. Spurs are now exploring other options for a new centre-back in January. The club is open to signing players regardless of their dominant foot, although a preference for a left-footer exists.
- Giovani Lo Celso’s Potential Move: Mundo Deportivo reports that Giovani Lo Celso is keen on a move and would readily join Barcelona, possibly on loan. Xavi has shown a strong interest in Lo Celso, and a deal could materialize in January.
International Round-Up
- Togo vs. Senegal: Pape Sarr played 74 minutes in a goalless draw.
- Wales vs. Turkey: Ben Davies put in a full shift, contributing defensively and offensively. Brennan Johnson also played 90 minutes, with notable offensive stats.
- Ireland vs. New Zealand: Troy Parrott was an unused substitute in a 1-1 draw.
- Uruguay vs. Bolivia: Rodrigo Bentancur had an impressive game, playing 86 minutes with high involvement in play and successful duels.
- Brazil vs. Argentina: Emerson Royal and Cuti Romero both played the full 90 minutes, with Romero particularly standing out in defense. Giovani Lo Celso played 70 minutes, contributing an assist and being actively involved in the midfield.
In Summary
Tottenham Hotspur’s transfer window planning is in full swing, with a focus on strengthening their defensive line. The potential departure of Giovani Lo Celso to Barcelona could be a significant move for the club. Meanwhile, Spurs’ players are showcasing their skills on the international stage, with notable performances from Rodrigo Bentancur, Ben Davies, and Cuti Romero, among others. These international duties not only highlight the players’ individual talents but also their importance to Tottenham’s squad depth and versatility.
Lo Celso is better built for Spain, and we could do with the funds. The crazy initial run sometimes clouds the fact that we are still smack in the very beginnings of our rebuild. This season is more about the building, the buying in, the environment. Then we can worry about the results of a season. Big up, Ben and Sim. Cheers!
If Barcelona wants Lo Celso, make ’em pay if he’s actually interested in moving on even Ange seems to like him (in words). However, with Sarr and Bissouma away for their tournament, that move would leave quite light in the midfield department. It would certainly gives lots of playing time for Skipp, who I still believe in and would do well if he got more playing time. I think he could play the 6 role with Bissouma gone and then Hojbjerg and Betancur playing the 8s? If Lo Celso departs, we MUST replace him with someone in the window. Plus, we obviously need another center-back for cover once Dier goes to Bayern (wishful thinking).
Still can’t get over Romero’s comments about Jesus.. 😂😭 One heck of a player we got in our hands! 🙌🏻
Tottenham should try a swap deal with Lo Celso and Raphina plus maybe 20 million. I don’t see how we get Raphina any other way and Barca get a player they want. Win- win scenario for both parties.
UNPOPULAR OPINION: Bentancur needs to sort out that beard 😂
Our Centre midfield can’t be looking like Hagrid, it will weigh him down too much!
