Tottenham Targets Additional Stars as Transfer Window Nears

Tottenham Targets Additional Stars as Transfer Window Nears

Tottenham Hotspur are actively pursuing Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo as part of manager Roberto De Zerbi’s summer rebuilding plan.

The club is also in advanced discussions to acquire Manchester City winger Savinho, who has indicated a strong desire to move to North London.

Tottenham has opened talks with Gakpo’s representatives, but any transfer hinges on meeting Liverpool’s valuation of the Dutch international.

Liverpool regard Gakpo as a core member of their squad and have not signaled openness to his departure; only a substantial financial proposal could alter that position.

Since joining Liverpool from PSV Eindhoven in January 2023, Gakpo has recorded 50 goals and 23 assists across all competitions, operating effectively as both a central striker and a left‑winger.

Negotiations for Savinho appear more advanced, with the player having directly expressed his intention to leave Manchester City and clubs reportedly close to finalizing terms.

De Zerbi envisions a high‑intensity, attacking unit and views Gakpo’s physical presence, pressing ability, and tactical intelligence as an ideal fit for his fluid system.

While the dual pursuit underscores Tottenham’s aggressive recruitment strategy, the outcomes remain uncertain pending financial agreements and player consent.
