Djed Spence shines in Tottenham’s win at Brentford

Tottenham Hotspur ended their four-game losing streak in the Premier League with a 2-0 win over Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium on Sunday.
Tottenham, entering as underdogs, secured a crucial 2-0 win over Brentford. An own goal from Vitaly Janelt opened the scoring in the 29th minute, and Pape Matar Sarr sealed the victory with a second goal just before stoppage time.
Djed Spence was a standout performer at left-back in Tottenham’s win over Brentford. The 24-year-old has capitalized on Spurs’ injury crisis this season, winning 8 duels, making 7 recoveries, and completing 3 successful tackles.
Djed Spence also completed 100% of his dribbles and made a crucial goal-line clearance just before Sarr’s goal. After a tough start to his Spurs career, the former Middlesbrough man has become a key figure under Ange Postecoglou during the team’s early injury crisis.
Transformed
Spence arrived at Spurs from Middlesbrough with a strong reputation from the Championship, known for his overlapping runs and composure on the ball. While he struggled to break into the team in his first two seasons, he’s become more influential under Postecoglou this term.
Under Postecoglou, Spence has been transformed, playing as a right-back, centre-back, or left-back this season. His consistent performances, including a crucial goal-line clearance yesterday, may have been pivotal in keeping Postecoglou’s job secure.
With Destiny Udogie sidelined for a few weeks, Spence has a chance to solidify his spot as the main left-back. After earning a 9/10 rating from football.london for his performance yesterday, he faces a tough challenge against Mohamed Salah when Spurs host Liverpool in the Carabao Cup second leg on Thursday. Spurs lead 1-0 from the first leg, but Anfield will present a stern test.

Everton agree deal for West Brom’s Tom Fellows

Everton have reportedly agreed on a deal to sign West Bromwich Albion star Tom Fellows, as per transfer expert Mike Brown.
After rising through West Brom’s youth system, the 21-year-old made his senior debut in 2021. Struggling for regular minutes, he was loaned to Crawley Town to gain experience and develop his career.
Fellows has since become a key player for West Brom, enjoying a strong season with 13 goal contributions in 26 league appearances.
Impressed by his recent performances, Everton have shown interest in signing Fellows. According to Mike Brown on Football Insider, the Toffees attempted to sign him in the winter window and have laid the groundwork for a potential deal.
However, Everton couldn’t finalize the deal before the deadline as they were unable to reach an agreement with West Brom over the transfer fee.
Fellows to Everton
Everton have agreed on personal terms with Fellows after receiving approval from Moyes and are expected to complete the move for the youngster next summer.
Brown said:
“Yeah, I expect they’ll get that one done. Everton have already done all the hard work to get to the stage they were at in January, where they agreed terms with the player. They’re not going to let it go. It seems most of the talks have already taken place, so it will be a case of picking up where they left off.”
Brown added:
“They’ll still have to agree on a fee with West Brom, which was the stumbling block, but those types of deals are usually easier to do in the summer. I expect they’ll still want to bring him in because he’s an exciting young player, and Moyesey has obviously given the go-ahead.”
Moyes has a proven track record of spotting talent, as seen with his successful signings at West Ham, including Jarrod Bowen, Tomas Soucek, Vladimir Coufal, Mohammed Kudus, and Lucas Paqueta. Now, Everton will be hoping he can replicate that success at Goodison Park.
Fellows is a left-footed right-sided forward with plenty of potential. He could be a smart acquisition for Everton if they sign him, though it remains to be seen if they will finalize the deal next summer.

West Ham & Tottenham battle for Richard Rios

West Ham United are reportedly ready to go head-to-head with Tottenham Hotspur over a deal to sign Palmeiras star Richard Rios, as per Spanish outlet Fichajes.
West Ham thrived under David Moyes, winning the Europa Conference League, but after parting ways with him, they’ve struggled with instability.
Julen Lopetegui replaced Moyes as West Ham’s manager ahead of this season and was given funds to strengthen the squad last summer.
Things didn’t go as planned under Lopetegui, leading to his departure. Graham Potter has since been appointed to steady the ship. West Ham are currently 15th in the Premier League with 27 points from 24 games.
West Ham are already looking to strengthen their squad for next summer, with Fichajes reporting that Potter’s side are targeting midfielder Richard Rios as a key addition.
Battle
Rios’ £84m release clause poses a major challenge for West Ham, but the midfielder is eager to move to Europe, which could lead Palmeiras to lower their asking price.
Tottenham and Nottingham Forest are also targeting Rios, meaning West Ham will face tough competition to secure the deal.
Spurs have Pape Matar Sarr, Yves Bissouma, Rodrigo Bentancur, and Lucas Bergvall as midfield options. Archie Gray is also an option, though he’s been playing in defense due to their injury crisis at the back.
Bergvall is still a teenager and needs time to develop, so Tottenham may look to add a more experienced midfielder ahead of next season.
Rios has impressed for Palmeiras and played a key role in Colombia reaching the Copa America final last summer. At 24, he could be a smart acquisition for either Tottenham or West Ham, provided they can secure him for a reasonable price.

Tottenham & Man Utd eye Matheus Cunha move

Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United are reportedly planning to make a move to sign Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Matheus Cunha, as per Spanish outlet AS.
Tottenham have faced injury woes this season, affecting their performances. They’ve been knocked out of the EFL and FA Cups and sit 14th in the Premier League with 27 points from 24 games.
As a result, Ange Postecoglou is facing criticism, with reports suggesting his job is at risk. Meanwhile, the club is exploring the market to strengthen the squad ahead of next summer.
Spurs may need to sign a new left-winger if Timo Werner leaves at the end of the season. The RB Leipzig loanee has struggled for form and is now dealing with an injury.
AS reports that Tottenham are looking to strengthen their attack for next season and have shown interest in Matheus Cunha, closely monitoring the Brazilian’s progress ahead of a potential move.
Battle
Matheus Cunha recently signed a contract extension with Wolves until 2029, with a release clause of just over £60m. Despite the club’s battle for survival, the clause remains unchanged if they are relegated, though they would be open to negotiations in that scenario.
The report claims that Tottenham are not the only club interested in Cunha, as Manchester United have also been closely monitoring the forward ahead of a potential move next summer.
Arsenal and Nottingham Forest also showed interest in signing Cunha during the recent winter window, meaning the player has no shortage of potential suitors.
Man Utd are lacking depth in attack after Marcus Rashford and Antony’s departures, and Jadon Sancho’s exit last summer. As a result, they will need to sign a new forward for next season.
Cunha has been delivering promising performances this season and is proven in the Premier League, making him a strong acquisition for either Man Utd or Tottenham if they secure his signature.
