Tottenham may not have additional players until the end of the transfer market.
Tottenham seemed to be off to a good start until they signed Mohamed Kudus early in the transfer window. Even the appointment of Thomas Frank was easy. The decision to completely recruit Mattis Tell remains suspicious, but Tel is still a young player, so we don't know what the future holds. The same goes for recruiting Takai Kota, a promising Japanese player.
The problem began to occur after Son Heung-min left Tottenham. Son Heung-min's transfer to LA FC has earned a whopping 22 million euros (about 35.6 billion won) and a player over 33 years of age, which is third in soccer history, but no replacement has been recruited at all.
Tottenham chose Manchester City's Savinho as Son Heung-min's successor and tried to recruit him with confidence, but it is facing strong resistance from Manchester City's leadership. Reporter David Onstein, who boasts the highest public confidence in the Premier League, emphasized on the 26th (Korea time) that Manchester City has no intention of selling Savinho, so Tottenham has no specific issues to pursue. Brazilian winger Savinho is likely to stay at the Etihad Stadium for now, although coach Frank is still strong in recruiting players. Other alternatives can be found, but Tottenham is still pushing for a very unlikely recruitment of Savinho.

Recruitment of offensive midfielders is also difficult. Morgan Gibbs-White's failure to sign was due to Nottingham Forest's ridiculous behavior, but Tottenham has nothing to say about Eberechi Eze's recruitment. This is because Arsenal was intercepted while taking time over the method of paying the transfer fee. After failing to recruit Eze, he tried to bring in Niko Pas, who was unlikely to recruit, but was rejected at once.
If the winger and No. 10 are not recruited, the offense will actually start the season with only Kudus reinforced after Son Heung-min leaves. Kudus is adapting quickly and doing well, but he is not a player who can fill Son Heung-min's gap alone.

Even more shocking news is that Tottenham may not be able to recruit additionally in the remaining five days. Peter O'Rourke, who works for Football Insider in England and is most fluent in Tottenham's internal news, said on his personal SNS on the 27th, `How likely is it that we won't be able to recruit a single person by the transfer market deadline?When asked by a fan, "Of course it is possible. But I can't guarantee that either"New resources may not be added, he predicted.
Although Tottenham is a team that advances to the European Champions League (UCL) this season, its power has not changed much from last season in this atmosphere. Despite Son Heung-min earning money for Tottenham until the end, he doesn't even know how to spend it properly. Fans' dissatisfaction with Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is on the verge of exploding.
