With a new £65 million striker in Dominic Solanke, a new £40 million midfielder in Archie Gray, a new £30 million winger in Wilson Odobert, another loan spell for Timo Werner, a January deal arranged for South Korean winger Yang Min-Hyeok, and the summer arrival of Lucas Bergvall, Spurs have made a lot of moves this summer.

Sergio Reguilon, Giovani Lo Celso, and Manor Solomon are anticipated to join them as Postecoglou attempts to mold the team in his likeness.
