Hey, Tottenham fans! How pumped are you about Ange Postecoglou shaking things up in the transfer market? So far, he’s snagged Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray during pre-season, and the rumor mill is buzzing with even more names. Oh, and, Dominic Solanke seems like a lock to join the Spurs too! But while all this excitement keeps brewing, Postecoglou explained what he’s really after in new signings.

Spoiler alert: it’s not just about bringing in a striker (even though that’s been on his radar). It’s way more about the mentality of the players. In a chat with The Athletic, he opened up about two guys, Guglielmo Vicario, and Micky van de Ven – both gave him great vibes when they met. “Some of it is just maturity,” he mentioned and exclaimed how it’s even better to find players who are genuinely stoked to be at Tottenham.

While many fans might think that should be given, Ange Postecoglou knows that’s not always the case. He pointed out, “Sometimes players go, ‘Oh, I’ve got other options’, and they do — the kind of players we’re looking at, they’ve got other options.” But if Postecoglou senses a player can’t wait to don that Spurs jersey? Well then, that’s exactly what he’s looking for!

The Tottenham boss added, “That’s a good starting point for me because you know you’ve got someone who, from the day he signs, is all in on the club for the right reasons.” Ange Postecoglou further elucidated, “They’ve come to Tottenham, and that was their choice. It wasn’t because we gave them more money or it’s whatever other reason.”

So there you have it! If you’re dreaming of being a Spurs player, take notes—well, sort of! This really shows how the Aussie-Greek manager thinks about players and why he’s super-picky with his transfer picks. Speaking of transfers, let’s dive into the latest buzz emerging from Tottenham’s camp!

Latest tranfer update from Ange Postecoglou’s camp

So, as we mentioned before, Tottenham’s been on the hunt for a new No. 9 for a while now. Meanwhile, Fabrizio Romano just dropped some news: Ange Postecoglou has decided to send backup striker Alejo Veliz out on loan to Espanyol. The cool part? The absence of a purchase option means that the Argentine player will rejoin Spurs in June. Now, what does this all mean?

Well, it clears some space for some big-name strikers to join up! First off, we’ve got Dominic Solanke from AFC Bournemouth—rumor has it he’s already given The Lilywhites the thumbs up! He might pack his bags soon enough if they make an offer. Then there’s also Ivan Toney and Jonathan David, rumored to be on Spurs’ radar lately.

Oh, and let’s not forget about Emerson Royal. He looks set to exit to AC Milan with talks between their clubs set to kick off soon. With all these shake-ups happening, it’s clear Ange Postecoglou is ready to stir things up at Tottenham. We’ll just have to wait and see how everything unfolds!
