Tottenham Hotspur has shown us over the past few months that they can achieve great levels of success, but it is crucial that they reach the next level based on recent victory.
The Lily Whiteman secured his Champions League position despite a 1-0 victory over Manchester United in Bilbao, winning the Europa League title despite a 17th place league finish.
Thomas Frank has the task of bringing the side back to the top of the Premier League table.
It’s no surprise that after taking the reins this summer, Dane wants to make the addition he wants.
Owner Daniel Levy has to hand him the funds needed to make subsequent changes to his team.
Latest new additions on Spurs hunting this summer
Ademoral Lookman emerged as a shocking option for Spurs this summer after talking to Nigerian representatives over the summer with moving to Nigerian representatives.
Mohammed Kudus has become one of the main targets of Lily White in the window this summer, but the Ghanaian is currently holding a £85 million release clause in his contract with West Ham United, which costs a considerable amount of money.
However, according to L’Equipe, they may be trying to draw attention to the promoted Monaco star Magnes Acryucet.
The report claims that the Spurs have made interests to the 23-year-old representative, and that Arsenal, Nottingham Forest and Manchester United are also interested.
The French star claims he can be used at a rate in the £60 million region this summer after scoring seven points and registering 12 assists in 43 appearances in all competitions.
Why the Spurs’ £60m goal will be a better signing than eze
Eberechi Eze has been a player on the Spurs radar for the last few years, but the deal for the attacking midfielder has not been realized.
The 27-year-old has become the subject of greater interest in this window after scoring 14 goals and 12 assists in all competitions at Crystal Palace in 2024/25.
The British have even been an important part of the national team’s setup over the past few months, and he has become an attractive target given the £68 million release clause after that.
But he could be on his way to North London, but it could be a move to join Arsenal after Gunner has opened discussions with the midfielder about his move to the Emirates.
As a result, they can turn their attention to Akliouche as a result, and the Monaco star has the potential to become an elite level talent given his tender age.
Comparing his statistics to Eze’s 2024/25 campaign, young people labeled “exceptional” by Talent Scout Jacek Kulig have the ability to manage higher shots at target rates and become clinical in front of goals when necessary.
He also has many talents when completing progressive carrys from about 90 people, completing more attempted take-ons and holding the ball at his feet.

The French dominance is further reflected in the tally of the pass accuracy, moving on to the final third and having the ability to provide others around him with the opportunity to strengthen their tally.
£60 million may seem to be a mammoth amount, but that’s a cheaper price than Eze’s deal.
If he continues on his current trajectory, it is sensational business, passing on Frank the offensive talent he wants at the start of the 2025/26 campaign.
