Tottenham is aiming for both Wolverhampton's attack and midfield ace.
England's Team Talk reported on the 23rd (Korea time) 'Tottenham is expected to invest 112.5 million pounds (about 210 billion won) to make two transfers'
Team Talk is 'Tottenham is expected to invest considerable funds to improve its squad if Enze Postecoglou remains in the team, and the midfield and attack team are most likely to be reinforced. Yves Bissouma and Hishalisson will leave the team, while Rodrigo Bentancur and Brennan Johnson could also be sold. Tottenham are ready to spend more than £100m to sign Mateus Cunha and João Gómez from Wolverhampton, he said.

Tottenham are in the worst situation of having to worry about a fall rather than a trophy this season. He was eliminated from various championship opportunities such as the League Cup and FA Cup, and fell to 14th place with disastrous results in the league. The more serious problem than the performance is the inability to rebound. Despite the hard work of Son Heung-min and other key players, Tottenham disappointed its fans by consistently performing with a frustrating performance throughout the season. He is aiming for a turnaround by winning the Europa League, but even this is not easy.
However, Tottenham plans to maintain Postecoglou and strengthen its players in the summer transfer market if they perform well in the Europa League. He wants Wolverhampton attack and midfield ace Cunha and Gomes as targets for the summer transfer market.

If Tottenham's temptation intensifies, it will be a big blow to Wolverhampton. Both players are key players in the team that have sustained Wolverhampton since last season. From the 2023-2024 season, Cunha led the Wolverhampton offense with Hwang Hee-chan, who scored 12 goals in the league alone. He scored the most offensive points in his team with 14 goals and eight assists in 36 games. He has been reborn as the team's ace this season. He showed great performance in 29 games with 15 goals and four assists. In recent games, he committed misbehavior, such as strangling the opponent, but his skills are certain.
Gomes's presence is not out of the question. Gomes, a Brazilian prospect who joined Wolverhampton in the winter transfer market in the 2022-2023 season, immediately adapted to Wolverhampton and has been a key resource in the midfield since last season. He had a great impact on Wolverhampton's performance with his consistent defense and stable passes. He also started 27 league games this season with an indispensable influence in Wolverhampton's midfield. For Tottenham, if it succeeds in recruiting two players, it can solve the concerns of the front line and the midfield at the same time.

However, Wolverhampton is bound to be negative about selling both players. Wolverhampton, which has fallen to 17th place in the league this season, is in a situation where its next season's strength is important even if it is free from the threat of relegation. It is unclear whether it will be welcome to sell two key players at the same time because it is difficult to guarantee that the next season will also avoid relegation if it slips.
Attention is focusing on whether teammates who led Wolverhampton's rise along with Hwang Hee-chan will play as Son Heung-min and Tottenham in the next season.
