Tottenham aims to bring in quality players this summer once they secure their place in the Premier League for next season.
Tottenham is working to stay in the Premier League under Igor Tudor this season. Currently, they are struggling, having won only two of their last 18 matches and are hovering in the lower half of the table, just four points above the relegation zone. It’s essential for the club to avoid falling to lower divisions to strengthen the team in the summer.
Spurs urgently need reinforcements this summer to prevent facing similar challenges next season. The injury troubles at the club have left the squad weakened, making it tough for Igor Tudor to field a strong lineup recently. With many academy players on the bench, it’s clear the team lacks depth.
Long-term injuries to James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski have also taken a toll on the team’s creativity in midfield. Spurs need a player who can bridge the gap between midfield and attack, especially to cover for Maddison and Kulusevski while producing solid results under the new manager.
Tottenham faces competition for Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers
Tottenham must stay active in the summer transfer market. They can’t afford to miss out on key targets and need to persuade players that the club’s future plans are attractive. The Lewis family has to support their ambitions financially to acquire quality players who can contribute immediately.
Recent reports link Spurs to Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers, who has performed well this season, scoring eight goals and assisting five in the Premier League. He has been vital for Unai Emery’s team, playing on the left wing or as a central attacking midfielder. Tottenham considers him a ‘dream’ summer target and believes they could secure him if his €70m asking price is met.
However, Spurs risk falling behind in the bidding for Rogers. According to TEAMtalk, Chelsea currently leads the pursuit, having laid out a development plan for him, ensuring regular playing time to aid his growth. Rogers reportedly prefers a move to Chelsea, seeing it as a chance to compete for major trophies.
Securing a player like Morgan Rogers is a tough challenge for Tottenham. They currently lack the same appeal as some of their rivals due to a lackluster campaign. Therefore, Spurs must also consider alternative targets this summer as they look to rebuild and aim for a higher position in the league next season.
