Following back-to-back 17th place finishes in the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur have decided to spend their way up the table. In Robert De Zerbi's first transfer window as manager, the Italian is looking to completely overhaul the Spurs squad, hence why they have been one of the busiest clubs this summer, not only in the Premier League but anywhere in Europe.
It has therefore been hard to keep track of all the ins and outs at Hotspur Way this summer. Luckily, we've got you covered.
Every Tottenham signing in the 2026 summer transfer window
Players | Position | Former club | Fee |
|---|---|---|---|
Jan Paul van Hecke | Centre-back | Brighton | £52 million |
Martin Dúbravka | Goalkeeper | Burnley | Free |
Andy Robertson | Left-back | Liverpool | Free |
Marcos Senesi | Centre-back | Bournemouth | Free |
Mateus Fernandes | Central midfielder | West Ham United | £85 million |
Sandro Tonali | Central midfielder | Newcastle United | £100 million |
Sávio | Winger | Manchester City | £85 million |
Omar Marmoush | Centre-forward | Manchester City | Loan + £60m |
At the time of publication, Omar Marmoush's move from Manchester City has not been made official, but is widely expected to be finalised in the next day or two. This comes after Savinho, who has rebranded back to Sávio, also arrived from the Sky Blues for £85 million. The Egyptian will follow him from the Etihad to N17, initially on loan but with an obligation to buy for £60 million.
This takes Spurs' summer spend above £300 million, having paid enormous fees for new midfielders Sandro Tonali of Newcastle as well as Mateus Fernandes from West Ham. Jan Paul van Hecke has also arrived from Brighton, following the departure of two high-profile centre-backs.
Meantime, the Lilywhites have also picked up Martin Dúbravka, Andy Robertson and Marcos Senesi on free transfers. The former will be the back-up goalkeeper behind Antonín Kinský, while Robertson adds some much-needed expirence. Senesi meantime is the shrewdest additon of the trio.
Every Tottenham departure in the 2026 summer transfer window
Players | Position | New club | Fee |
|---|---|---|---|
Luka Vušković | Centre-back | Brighton | £46 million |
Cristian Romero | Centre-back | Atlético Madrid | £34 million |
Djed Spence | Full-back | Inter Milan | £30 million |
Guglielmo Vicario | Goalkeeper | Juventus | Loan |
Radu Drăgușin | Centre-back | Fiorentina | Loan |
Will Lankshear | Striker | Middlesbrough | £10 million |
Alejo Véliz | Striker | Bahia | £7.8 million |
Manor Solomon | Winger | West Ham United | £5 million |
Yves Bissouma | Central midfield | Free agent | Free |
Yang Min-hyeok | Winger | Westerlo | Loan |
Mason Melia | Striker | Lincoln City | Loan |
As already alluded to, most of Tottenham's most high-profile departures have all been defenders. Most of the fanbase had already turned against Cristian Romero by the time the club captain was sold to Atlético Madrid; Cuti was born to play for Diego Simeone's Atleti wasn't he?
Meantime, a sale Spurs fans are upset about is Luka Vušković, given that the 19 year old is one of the most highly-rated young centre-backs on the planet. He joined Tottenham from Hajduk Split, before starring on loan at Hamburg in the Bundesliga last season. However, the hierarchy have decided to cash in on young assets in the hope of making the team better now.
That policy extends to striker Will Lankshear. The 21 year old has started the new season on fire for Middlesbrough, scoring four in four, and Spurs could rue letting him leave for just £10 million. They've also cashed in on Djed Spence, sold to Serie A champions Inter after an impressive World Cup.
Not in De Zerbi's plans, Radu Drăgușin and Guglielmo Vicario have been sent out on loan, with smaller fess earned for Alejo Véliz, Alfie Devine, Ashley Phillips, Manor Solomon and Tynan Thompson.
Tottenham's current net spend
- Fees paid: £382 million
- Fees earned: £148.5 million.
- Net spend: £233.5 million.
Which Tottenham players are most likely to leave?
The fact that James Maddison, Wilson Odobert, Xavi Simons, Dejan Kuluševski and Mohammed Kudus are all injured, means that Tottenham's squad is not as gigantic as it may first seem. Nevertheless, there are still forecast to be a few departures before the 1 September deadline.
Lucas Bergvall expressed his desire to leave earlier in the window albeit, after learning that Nottingham Forest and Newcastle were the clubs interested, seems to have retracted that. With Marmoush on his way, Richarlison has been linked with a departure, following a terrible performance at Brentford on the Premier League's opening weekend.
Young centre-back Kōta Takai and midfielder Pape Matar Sarr are also seemingly not in De Zerbi's plans, so it would not be a surprise if they were on the move this week.
