Overview
- Tottenham have had at least two offers for Jan Paul van Hecke turned down by Brighton and are preparing a further bid, while one outlet has reported a third offer was accepted but that claim remains unconfirmed.
- The club has opened discussions with Juventus over Gleison Bremer, who carries a reported €58m release clause, and reports say Tottenham may offer goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario to lower the cash outlay.
- Cristian Romero is widely expected to leave this summer, a prospect that is driving Tottenham’s urgent search for centre-backs and shaping their willingness to pursue high-cost or creative deals.
- Tottenham have already completed free transfers for Andy Robertson and Marcos Senesi as part of a broader defensive rebuild led by manager Roberto De Zerbi.
- If the Van Hecke move stalls, Tottenham have shortlisted alternatives such as Club Brugge’s Joel Ordoñez, while Brighton’s tough negotiating stance and Bremer’s recent injury history create clear risks for Spurs’ recruitment plans.
