Tottenham are enduring a disappointing season, currently sitting 14th in the Premier League. Their only realistic route to European football next season is winning the Europa League. Failure to do so could see Ange Postecoglou dismissed by the board.

Despite uncertainty over who will be in charge next season, Tottenham are already planning their summer moves. According to Ghana Soccer Net (h/t 90min), Spurs are keen to compete with Newcastle for the signing of West Ham’s dynamic forward, Mohammed Kudus.

Mohammed Kudus could move this summer for £80 million, and with Son Heung-min aging, Tottenham view the former Ajax star as a potential successor to their captain. The versatile 24-year-old can play as a left winger, center forward, right flank, or in advanced midfield roles.

Kudus not worth the price tag

Tottenham Hotspur clearly need to invest in their attacking options. With doubts surrounding Son Heung-min’s future, and potential departures for Richarlison and Timo Werner, the club has strong reason to explore alternatives. A versatile talent like Mohammed Kudus is certainly a player worth considering.

An £80 million price tag is far from ideal for a player who has scored just three goals and provided two assists in 25 Premier League appearances this season. While West Ham’s poor form and struggles may play a part, it still doesn’t justify such a high asking price for Mohammed Kudus.

For £80 million, Spurs could target a player with better statistics from elsewhere in Europe, or even strengthen multiple positions with an expected squad overhaul. It’s unclear if West Ham will be open to negotiations, but even with a reasonable discount, Kudus still may not be a financially attractive option.

Liverpool lost 3-2 to Fulham at Craven Cottage last weekend, and while they’re still in the title race, a familiar issue resurfaced: a lack of goals from the forwards. The board is expected to address this weakness in the summer.

Signing a striker is set to be a top priority for Liverpool, especially with Darwin Nunez, Diogo Jota, and Luis Diaz all linked with possible exits. Newcastle’s Alexander Isak has emerged as a key target, and according to Graeme Bailey (via Rousing the Kop), the Reds are growing ‘confident’ of securing his signature.

Arsenal are also reportedly keen on Alexander Isak, with Mikel Arteta eager to bring in a new striker. This sets up a potential transfer battle between the Premier League rivals. Newcastle have valued the Swedish forward at £150 million, but that figure could drop if Isak pushes for a move.

Isak would be a dream signing for Liverpool

In recent days, Liverpool appear to have made encouraging progress toward keeping Mohamed Salah. If the Egyptian star stays, signing Alexander Isak would mark a major upgrade for the squad. The former Real Sociedad striker seems like the ideal partner to thrive alongside Liverpool’s talisman.

Isak has netted 24 goals and registered five assists across all competitions this season. Beyond his sharp finishing, he’s also effective at creating chances from deeper positions due to his strong hold-up play. That makes him a great fit not just for Salah, but also someone who could help unlock the best in Cody Gakpo.

Newcastle may hold off on any talks for Isak until the summer as they aim to finish the season without distractions. However, once the transfer window opens, all eyes will be on how strongly Liverpool pursue the striker—and just how much Newcastle are realistically willing to accept for their star forward.

Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou faces pressure to save his job, with his team’s performances under close scrutiny for the rest of the season. His next challenge is against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge tonight, as Spurs aim to bounce back from just one win in their last five matches across all competitions.

Spurs have not won any of their last three Premier League matches, so there’s plenty of work to be done. However, with Manchester United losing to Nottingham Forest, a win could lift them to 12th in the league. Here’s a look at the team that could be tasked with securing an unlikely derby win over Chelsea.

Goalkeeper – Guglielmo Vicario is likely to retain his place in goal ahead of Antonin Kinsky.

Defenders – Micky van de Ven may return to the centre-back role alongside Cristian Romero, while Pedro Porro could rejoin the lineup, possibly replacing Djed Spence at right-back. Destiny Udogie is expected to keep his place at left-back.

Maddison, Sarr and Son to start

Midfielders – Ange Postecoglou could make two changes in midfield. Yves Bissouma is likely to retain his spot as the defensive midfielder, while James Maddison and Pape Matar Sarr could start as the left and right midfielders, respectively. Though Dejan Kulusevski is close to full fitness, he is unlikely to be risked against Chelsea.

Forwards – Son Heung-min could replace Mathys Tel on the left wing, likely being the only change in the final third. Dominic Solanke is set to lead the line, while Brennan Johnson is expected to keep his place on the right wing.
