Tottenham Hotspur have reinforced under Roberto De Zerbi with a club-record outlay this summer and are pursuing additional attackers to support a push back into Europe. New signings Tonali, Fernandes and Van Hecke have been completed, while Lucas Bergvall’s future remains under discussion. Chelsea’s Morgan Rogers and England teammates are among the targets. The club is confident of finishing higher than last season’s 17th place.
London City Lionesses have signed Alexia Putellas and Mary Earps, with the WSL opener against Manchester United on 4 September signaling a high-profile start to the season. The league expands to 14 teams this year, with Chelsea, City and Arsenal shaping the title race. United are rebuilding under a new recruitment strategy.
The Brazil international has secured a 2-1 win for Tottenham over Chelsea in a pre-season friendly in Sydney, scoring the 92nd-minute winner after Tottenham were reduced to 10 men. De Zerbi has suggested Richarlison’s future remains uncertain, with Spurs’ transfer activity intensifying this summer.
