Tottenham Hotspur have not exactly enjoyed the most exciting of summer transfer windows so far. The north London club have only seen one new face come through the doors ahead of the season opener against Leicester City.
Current Transfers and Squad Status
Despite the lack of new signings, Tottenham fans have seen some familiar faces remain. Timo Werner has extended his loan spell, and Yang Min-hyeok is set to arrive in January. However, for new players who will be available to start in just over two weeks, it is only Archie Gray who will be at Ange Postecoglou’s disposal.
This could soon change, as Tottenham are potentially looking to add a new striker to their ranks ahead of the new campaign. One striker, in particular, is now hoping to make the move to Tottenham over the coming weeks.

Striker Situation at Spurs
Tottenham are going into the final two weeks of their pre-season with no natural senior striker fit for the opener against Leicester. Richarlison, who played through the middle last season, remains out through injury. Dejan Kulusevski has been playing in the number nine role of late, with Heung-min Son returning to his more natural spot on the left wing.
The club is in desperate need of a natural goalscorer, and there is one Premier League player who is now keen to become a Spurs player.
Ivan Toney Keen on Tottenham Move
According to GiveMeSport, Brentford striker Ivan Toney is eager to make the move across London to Tottenham this summer. Toney is keen to join a club where he can compete for silverware and play in European competitions. This move would also allow him to remain in London, avoiding the need to relocate from his current home.
Brentford’s Dilemma
All summer, there has been the belief that Toney was destined to leave Brentford with just 12 months remaining on his current deal. However, this potential transfer has encountered a significant obstacle. Brentford, who signed Igor Thiago as Toney’s potential replacement, now face a setback as Thiago has picked up a serious injury, sidelining him for months.
This development complicates Brentford’s plans and may influence their decision on whether to retain Toney until January.
Looking Ahead
Tottenham Hotspur and their fans eagerly await further developments as the transfer window progresses. The addition of Ivan Toney could provide the much-needed firepower for Spurs as they aim for a successful season under Ange Postecoglou. The next few weeks will be crucial in determining whether Toney will don the Spurs jersey and help bolster their attack.
Stay tuned for more updates as the transfer saga unfolds.
