Tottenham favourites to sign £242k-p/w forward despite Arsenal and Chelsea talks
Despite his agent’s discussions with London rivals Arsenal and Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur is now viewed as the favourite to sign a highly-rated attacker.
Daniel Levy gifted Spurs transfer boost after Europa League triumph
The Lilywhites stand to gain far more from Spurs’ victory in last week’s Europa League final than just the conclusion of their protracted trophy drought.
Salah-like forward considers joining Tottenham as contract expires in 2025
Spurs have a chance to get a good deal.
Spurs’ 17-year quest for a major title came to an end when Ange Postecoglou fulfilled his promise to “always” win trophies in his second season as manager. However, chairman Daniel Levy will also have an easier time luring the club’s top transfer targets.

Even if they lose every game and are eliminated in the group stage, the north Londoners will still earn at least £15.7 million from qualifying for the Champions League and are expected to receive £38 million in prize money from winning the Europa League (Sky Sports).
From a financial standpoint, the rise is obvious, but Spurs’ inclusion in the Champions League draw for the upcoming season makes the team an even more alluring destination for top players.
According to reputable reports, Tottenham wants to add more seasoned players this summer (BBC), and their European position makes this goal even more feasible.
In the case of Leroy Sane, a star for Bayern Munich whose contract expires on June 30, this is particularly true. Earlier this week, Sky Sports reported that Postecoglou’s team had now received an offer for his services.
Having played for Man City, the 29-year-old has excellent Premier League experience and is a proven attacking player at the highest level.
In 220 games since leaving Eastlands for Bavaria, he has scored 61 goals and provided 55 assists for Bayern, with 27 of those goals occurring in the Champions League.
Tottenham favourites to sign Leroy Sane ahead of Chelsea and Arsenal
Sane has been linked to moves to Arsenal and Chelsea in recent months, but Tottenham has jumped to the top of the league after winning the Europa League.
According to Sport Bild, Tottenham is in the lead over Chelsea and Arsenal in the pursuit of Sane, even though the latter two teams are in contact with his agent, Pini Zahavi.
The £242,000-per-week winger’s appointment of Zahavi has caused talks on a new contract for Sane to halt recently, but this week the representative flew to Munich for another meeting with Bayern over the player’s future.
