SL View: ‘Best English manager’ on Levy’s shortlist has proven he’s perfect man for Spurs job
Manchester City recorded their lowest-ever ball possession (37%) in a Premier League game under manager Pep Guardiola during Tuesday’s 3-2 defeat against Brighton and Hove Albion. While the English top-flight champions played with a man less for 80 minutes after Joao Cancelo was sent off, they headed into the break with a 1-0 lead and doubled their advantage three minutes into the second half. Not many teams can come from behind to win 3-2 against City despite a man advantage, and manager Graham Potter would have been proud of his side. The Tottenham Hotspur-linked boss proved exactly why Guardiola called him the best English manager in the world by outplaying arguably the best manager in the world. Spurs want a quality boss to succeed Jose Mourinho, and The Athletic claims that the Bright...

‘There is something arranged’ – Popular pundit gives his verdict on Harry Kane’s future
Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has been linked with a move away from the club at the end of this season. Popular pundit Jamie Redknapp believes that the 27-year-old England international has already chosen his next destination. Redknapp said on Sky Sports (via TEAMtalk): “When a player comes out saying he wants to go, that normally means there is something arranged. “Harry Kane probably has a club he knows he can go to – there might be a gentleman’s agreement.” Kane is thought to be frustrated with the lack of trophies at the London club and wants to join a side capable of challenging for major honours. Kane has witnessed several of his former Tottenham teammates leave the club and win major trophies, and it is no surprise that he wants to follow the same path. The Tottenham sta...
Tottenham speak to two Bundesliga managers as they hunt for new boss
Reuters Tottemham Hotspur have reportedly stepped up their search of finding a new manager by speaking to Hansi Flick and Ralf Rangnick. The North London side currently have former midfielder Ryan Mason at the helm on an interim basis following the sacking of Jose Mourinho last month. Mason has won three out of his four Premier League matches in charge – helping Spurs climb to sixth in the table. And with European football looking all-but secure for next season, Daniel Levy is now turning his attention to finding a permanent boss to take over in the summer. Tottenham were keen on luring Julian Nagelsmann away from RB Leipzig, but it has been confirmed that he will take over from Hansi Flick at Bayern Munich. According to the Guardian, Spurs have spoken to Flick about him potentially moving...
Why Ollie Watkins was right to snub Tottenham for Aston Villa
Ollie Watkins revealed earlier this week that he rejected a move to Tottenham Hotspur in favour of joining Aston Villa. The Englishman was not short of suitors following an impressive season with Brentford last year, scoring 25 goals in the Championship last season. In an interview on Sky’s Super Six podcast, Watkins admitted that he rejected Spurs having been told he would only be the second choice option if Harry Kane is fit. “Leeds were interested in me, but they signed Rodrigo,” Watkins explained. “Tottenham were interested in me – they made it clear if Harry Kane was fit, then he would play. “I did have that in the back of my mind, but they said with the schedule and the Europa League, there were a lot of games coming up.” While Tottenham may have been the most enticing option, here i...
Seven players on the transfer list as Real Madrid look to fund Kylian Mbappe deal
Real Madrid have placed seven first-team players on the transfer list as they look to raise funds to sign Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe. It’s no secret how much Los Blancos president Florentino Perez admires the youngster. It is believed that he is the club’s number one target. However, despite having just one year remaining on his current contract, the 22-year-old would cost an incredible fee. PSG spent €180 million on him back in 2018, and they would likely demand a similar fee this time around. In Madrid’s current financial situation, this is not possible without making big sales. As a result, the Spanish giants have made seven players available for sale, according to Marca. Isco Isco hasn’t been at his best in recent years Once one of the brightest talents at the club, attacki...
Report: £80k-per-week Tottenham player set to leave the club this summer
While talk of Harry Kane potentially leaving Tottenham Hotspur is likely to occupy the headlines for the best part of the summer transfer window, other players could also head for the exit following a disappointing campaign. The summer transfer window will be massive for Spurs. A new manager will arrive, and with it comes the obvious rebuilding process. However, Spurs are likely to operate on a tight transfer budget, and player sales are key for boosting the kitty. One player who could leave the club this summer is Erik Lamela. The Argentine is one of the senior members of the squad, but his career in north London has never fully flourished. Apart from scoring some breathtaking goals, Lamela has rarely been consistent for Spurs, with recurrent injuries disrupting his progress. At 29 and wi...
Report: 27-goal star open to joining Man City, club plan to hold talks over a potential deal
Manchester City are keen to sign Harry Kane in the summer transfer window. On Tuesday, Pep Guardiola was asked in the press conference about whether he would be signing Kane. The Spaniard remained tight-lipped, suggesting he would not comment on a player who is contracted to another club. Kane reportedly has informed Daniel Levy, the Spurs chairman, that he wants to leave Spurs this summer, following a disappointing campaign. Fabrizio Romano, writing for The Guardian, has claimed two crucial points. First, City ‘plan to hold talks over a potential deal’ for the Spurs striker. Secondly, Kane is open to joining City. He also added on Twitter that Kane has not handed in a transfer request, but he expects an amicable solution. Harry Kane desire to leave Tottenham is confirmed. He’s ...
‘It is expected’: Levy has made his decision on Tottenham player amid exit reports
Sky Sports dropped a massive bombshell earlier this week, which was partly expected though, given how the season has panned out. They claimed that Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has informed the club owner, Daniel Levy, of his decision to leave the club in the summer. Kane, who earlier claimed that he wants to win trophies in his career along with personal accolades, has once again enjoyed a fantastic season and may end up winning the golden boot. However, Spurs have been below par, and they are unlikely to get into the top four this season. Kane, it seems, doesn’t want to hang around, as another season in the Europa League looms large. A move away from north London looks increasingly difficult, especially when the negotiator is one of the toughest people to deal with. Put simply, it...
David Moyes set to sign new three-year West Ham United contract
West Ham United manager David Moyes will sign a new three-year contract next week, according to the Sun. The 58-year-old returned to the London Stadium to take over from Manuel Pellegrini in December 2019 after a six-month stint in 2018, penning an 18-month contract. That deal ends at the end of the campaign, but the Hammers board has been impressed with the job he has done and are more than happy to hand him an extension after a successful trial. West Ham were 17th in the Premier League table, one point above the relegation zone when Moyes re-joined, and he led them to safety at the end of the 2019-20 campaign. The team finished in 16th place with 39 points, their lowest points tally since 2010-11. The former Everton boss secured 20 points from 19 games, but has guided them to the brink o...
5 goals & 15 assists this season: Spurs keen on 24-yr-old who will cost €30m this summer
Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for Evan Ndicka and Daichi Kamada from Eintracht Frankfurt. According to Bild, the German outfit could lose some of their key players after missing out on Champions League qualification. Currently, Tottenham are interested in Ndicka and the centre back could cost around €28 million this summer. The 21-year-old French defender has managed to establish himself as a first-team player for the German side and he has the potential to succeed in the Premier League as well. Spurs have been vulnerable defensively this season and it is a position that needs strengthening during the summer transfer window. Colombian defender Davinson Sanchez has been linked with a move away from the London club and Toby Alderwireld is in the twilight of his career. Someo...
Man City & Red Devils reportedly ready to offer Spurs star £80m in wages
Manchester City and Manchester United are ready to offer Harry Kane £80 million in wages in order to tempt him from Tottenham Hotspur this summer, according to The Sun. The 27-year-old wants to leave Spurs at the end of the season with Champions League football unavailable again next term, and both Pep Guardiola and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer are ready to go head-to-head to bring him to Manchester. City and United are both prepared to hand Kane a five-year contract with a £300,000-a-week basic salary. Tottenham value the England international at £150 million, but they could be forced to do business for around £30m less if Kane insists on leaving. Man City and Man Utd would have ended up paying the star striker around £78m in wages at the end of five years should he join either of them, and there...
