Tottenham next transfer after Kudus and Gibbs-White already decided to complete £175m outlay

Tottenham Hotspur have moved swiftly to improve Thomas Frank’s squad this summer transfer window. After making Mathys Tel’s loan move from Bayern Munich permanent and signing Koko Takai, Spurs are closing in on two more arrivals.

Mohammed Kudus has joined the club from West Ham for £55million. The versatile forward has become the first new player signed for a big fee this summer and will bolster Frank’s attack ahead of their return to the Champions League.

Spurs are also pushing to sign Nottingham Forest star Morgan Gibbs-White. football.london understands a deal worth £60m is being touted and talks are at an advanced stage.

The 25-year-old England international impressed at the City Ground in the past two seasons and has managed to break into the England squad. It’s been suggested that Gibbs-White’s contract contains a £60m release clause.

Gibbs-White significantly bolsters Frank’s midfield for the 2025/26 season. Spurs have a number of players to choose from for the position but injuries to James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski in the past place doubt over where the creativity will come from.

Kudus’ arrival strengthens Tottenham’s attack with the likes of Wilson Odobert, Tel and Mikey Moore all competing to be utilised by Frank throughout the season. Once the duo come in, focus will turn on adding more new faces to Frank’s new-look squad.

For many, a new striker should be the next on Johan Lange’s transfer priority list. Calls for another centre-back to be added have also been made. However, according to a report from GB News, a move for Crystal Palace star Adam Wharton is imminent.

The report states that Frank has been given a war-chest of around £175m to sign Kudus and Gibbs-White, which would mean Wharton will cost around £60m. The England international would strengthen Spurs’ midfield options but it’s not yet clear whether Palace would be open to selling him.

Elsewhere, Yves Bissouma and Manor Solomon have all been linked with moves away. Their exits could trigger further business before the season kicks-off.
