Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a slew of players already this summer, but how close are they to actually signing anyone? And what’s stopping them from announcing something?
Why haven’t Spurs signed anyone yet?
The situation at Tottenham right now has been made all the clearer thanks to a report from The Athletic, which reveals a number of reasons why the North London side haven’t made any significant waves in the transfer market as of yet.
Apparently, Spurs are “not close to signing anybody” at the moment. However, Archie Gray and Conor Gallagher are both cited as players the club are interested in.
Still, Spurs fans should not be too concerned. The report adds that the Lilywhites are simply waiting for the “right opportunity” when it comes to transfer activity.
With “no PSR troubles” and a “revamped” recruitment team headed up by Johan Lange, it is suggested Spurs are well-placed to make things happen through the summer.

The impact of Euro 2024 and Copa America is also mentioned as a possible cause for Spurs taking things slow at the moment, with many players “too busy” concentrating on international duty to “seriously think about switching clubs” right now.
The report wraps up by suggesting one area Tottenham are keen to add to is in the full-back positions. It is also claimed Richarlison could be on the move, and would “need to be replaced.”
So far, the only deal Spurs have confirmed this summer is the extension of Timo Werner’s loan spell with the club.
Spurs Web Opinion
I’m totally fine with Spurs taking their time in the transfer market right now.
It sounds like we have irons in the fire and we definitely know what areas the club wants to improve in, and with the recruitment team in there now, I’ve faith that appropriate transfers will be made when the time is right.
