Tottenham Targeting Seven Summer Signings As Roberto De Zerbi Demands Major Squad Overhaul

Tottenham are planning a sweeping summer recruitment drive, with club insider Paul O’Keefe revealing that Spurs intend to make seven new signings before the window closes.

O’Keefe shared the update on X following the high-profile confirmation of Jan Paul van Hecke’s arrival from Brighton for a fee of £52 million.

Responding to a supporter asking about Tottenham’s remaining transfer plans, O’Keefe outlined the specific positions the club is looking to strengthen this summer.

He said: “LW, RW, CM, CF in an ideal world. Heard they want 7 signings.”

That means Spurs are actively pursuing a new left winger, right winger, central midfielder, and a centre forward before the end of the transfer window.

Van Hecke becomes the third confirmed signing of the summer, following deals for former Liverpool star Andy Robertson and Bournemouth’s Marcos Senesi, both of whom joined on free transfers.

Manchester City’s Savinho and Newcastle’s Sandro Tonali have also been strongly linked with moves to North London as Spurs look to add further quality across the squad.

The aggressive pace and scale of Tottenham’s summer business signals that the board is firmly behind manager Roberto De Zerbi and his vision for the club going forward.

De Zerbi was appointed towards the end of last season, arriving at a club in crisis and successfully steering Spurs away from what would have been a historic relegation on the final day of the season.

The Italian has made his ambitions clear since taking charge, pushing the club to compete at the very top level rather than simply consolidate their Premier League status.

Rather than waiting for deadline-day opportunities, Tottenham’s recruitment team has taken a proactive approach, moving early to secure De Zerbi’s primary targets ahead of the competition.

With four positions still to fill and several high-profile targets already in advanced discussions, the summer rebuild at Spurs is shaping up to be one of the most significant in recent memory.
