Overview
- Tottenham confirmed on Wednesday that Martin Dubravka has joined the club on a free transfer after his Burnley contract expired, making him their fourth summer signing.
- The 37-year-old is signed to serve as backup and mentor to 23-year-old Antonin Kinsky while providing experienced cover for domestic cup matches and injury periods.
- Multiple reports say Guglielmo Vicario is expected to leave Tottenham this summer with Serie A clubs linked, a move that created the vacancy Dubravka fills.
- Dubravka played 35 Premier League games for Burnley in 2025–26 and brings long Premier League experience from spells at Newcastle United and a loan at Manchester United.
- The transfer underlines Tottenham’s cost‑conscious summer strategy of using free agents to add experience while preserving funds for priority signings such as reported midfield targets.
