While Bayern Munich decided to enter the transfer race in the final stages by offering to pay up front for Drăgusin in full, the defender indicated a preference to join Spurs. One source suggested that Genoa will not have to pay a loan fee for Spence.

Drăgusin reportedly traveled to London on Wednesday in order to complete his medical with Spurs. The club also reportedly has a plane on standby for Spence who is expected to travel to Italy shortly. Spurs are hopeful that Drăgusin’s transfer will be completed in time to use the player in Sunday’s Premier League match against Manchester United.

Reportedly, the talks between the two sides broke down after Nagelsmann wanted to receive clarity over the London club’s transfer strategy and new sporting director.

ESPN’s James Olley also reported that Nagelsmann is out of the running while sharing more details about the process. According to Olley, the sources from the club told him that Tottenham actually never made a formal approach to Nagelsmann and that they are focused on other candidates.

There are several other names being linked with the Tottenham job, including Feyenoord’s Arne Slot and Mainz’s Bo Svensson. The Premier League side is also keeping tabs on Xabi Alonso and Ruben Amorim, two talented managers who did a great job with Bayer Leverkusen and Sporting Lisbon, respectively, this season.

Nagelsmann might still end up in London despite missing out on the Tottenham job. His name was previously linked with the vacant manager role with Chelsea, and the club is expected to interview him when they start the search in the summer.

Richarlison dismissed the rumor, stating that he continues to harbor a lot of respect for the Italian coach. He added that whenever there was a dispute amongst the team, it was solved by Conte and the players using “conversation and professionalism.”

“I wasn’t a mutiny leader against him, it was quite the opposite,” Richarlison continued. “I’m sorry I didn’t deliver as much as he expected of me and I didn’t do enough for him to stay. When he left, I sent him a message thanking him for everything and wishing him the best cause that’s what he deserves!”

Prior to departing the club by means of mutual consent, Conte criticized both his players and the club ownership following a 3-3 draw with the struggling Southampton in the Premier League before the international break.

“For Richy, tomorrow he’s going to have an MRI [scan] to know very well the importance of the injury,” Conte confirmed. “After tomorrow we will see very well the time he needs to recover.”

As Brazil’s central striker, Richarlison scored three goals during his country’s run to the quarterfinals. He was injured with six minutes left to play in regular time in Brazil’s quarterfinal loss to Croatia on penalties.

In addition to Richarlison, Spurs are also monitoring the injury situation of Uruguay midfielder Rodrigo Betancur and Wales’ Ben Davies, both of whom have returned to training. While Davies has already returned to full training and is expected to be match-fit, Conte expects Bentancur to return in Spurs’ January 1 match against Aston Villa at the earliest.

Following the World Cup break, Tottenham’s first game is a friendly match against French Ligue 1 side Nice on Wednesday. They then face Brentford in the Premier League on Monday.

After being placed under pressure by the French side’s attacking ability in the first half, the Spurs’ defense finally caved in during first-half stoppage time when Chancel Mbemba put Marseille in the lead. By this stage, Tottenham had been knocked down from a knockout round qualification spot.

With manager Antonio Conte banned from the sidelines and star midfielder Son Heung-Min going off due to injury, the disadvantaged Spurs side managed to turn their fortunes around when defender Clement Lenglet leveled the scoreline in the 54th minute.

The Premier League giants then sealed their win in a most dramatic fashion as Pierre-Emile Hojberg scored the winner for Tottenham with the last kick of the game in the 95th minute.

Following their victory, Spurs emerged as group winners with 11 points while Marseille finished bottom of the group with six points.

“To be honest, we expected that type of game. The Stade Velodrome is a very difficult place to deal with and I think we showed great personality,” Spurs goalkeeper Hugo Lloris remarked.

Conte inked a contract that runs until the summer of 2023, according to Tottenham’s official announcement. The agreement between the two sides also comes with “an option to extend.”

Shortly after signing the deal, Conte met Tottenham’s first team and took part in the training on Tuesday.

“I can’t wait to start working to convey to the team and the fans the passion, mentality, and determination that have always distinguished me, as a player and as a coach,” said Conte in a statement shared by the club.

Tottenham already tried to hire Antonio Conte during the summer while searching for a successor to Jose Mourinho. Conte rejected their initial approach but became keener on taking the job over time which was reportedly the determining factor that prompted the club to speed their decision on firing Santo.

Conte already coached in Premier League, helming Chelsea between 2016 and 2018 and leading the club to a Premier League title. He also has three Seria A titles with Juventus and one Seria A title with Inter.

Jose Mourinho’s Spurs, who have been the breakout team thus far in the 2020-21 campaign, were clinical and deadly in front of the net, despite allowing the Gunners to hold possession of the ball in 70% of the match and shoot 13 times.

Even though they did not have much of the ball, Spurs’ defense held strong and did their job, allowing a pair of strikes by star forwards Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son to be the difference makers that led them to their seventh victory of the season.

Tottenham’s first goal of the match came only thirteen minutes into the game as Son shot from long range and delivered a picture-perfect shot into the upper right corner of the goal, beating Bernd Leno with an unstoppable strike.

Spurs got their second goal just before the first half whistle blew. This took place right after star striker Harry Kane was assisted by Son in the box, and beat Leno with a strong strike from close range.

The goal was the 250th of Kane’s magnificent career for Club and Country, and the fact that it was against the Spurs’ bitter rival is something he won’t soon forget.

The Spurs now stand two points clear of Chelsea at the top of the table and will look to keep their momentum going with a mid-week Europa League clash against Royal Antwerp before traveling to Crystal Palace for some Premier League action.

Reportedly, Tottenham paid $14 million for Rodon, while Swansea will also be entitled to another $5 million in add-ons.

Despite making several high profile moves, including the addition of Gareth Bale and Sergio Reguilon, Tottenham felt like they needed another center back to increase the depth at the position. They pursued a number of options, including Inter Milan’s Milan Skriniar and Chelsea’ Antonio Rudiger, but came short.

Premier League side turned their attention to Rodon as an alternative, but the deal looked unlikely to happen. Swansea was firmly holding to a $23 million evaluation of talented Welshman and believed they could even get more in January if he continues to progress.

Tottenham decided to make one last push in recent days, and it proved successful as Swansea ended up coming down from their original asking price. It is believed that Rodon’s wish to make a move to Premier League played a role in this.

“It hasn’t really hit me yet,” said Rodon after the move was made official. “It’s a massive honor and a massive club, I can’t wait to get started.”

Joe Rodon is a product of Swansea City’s youth academy, having joined the club in 2005 as a seven-year-old child. He made his professional debut for the club in 2018 and has since played 54 games in Swansea’s jersey.

Rodon is also a regular with Wales on the international level and has seven caps with the national team to his name.

The first one to stumble was Man City, who played just 1-1 against Leeds United on Saturday despite being the overwhelming pick to win the game. Leicester then followed on Sunday by being outplayed at home by West Ham, who left King Power Stadium with an impressive 0-3 win. But it turned out this was just the beginning.

Manchester United welcomed Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford, looking to bounce back after an unconvincing win over Brighton last weekend. The Red Devils opened the game in the best manner possible, striking in the first couple of minutes thanks to Bruno Fernandes, who converted a penalty kick. What happened next will probably keep United’s manager Ole Gunnar Solskajer awake at night for a long time.

Tottenham needed just five minutes to turn around the result, with Tanguy Ndombele and Son Heung-min scoring in 4^th and 7^th minute to execute swift comeback. Then Anthony Martial added to United’s demise, receiving a red card for intentionally hitting Erik Lamela and leaving his team with 10 players to chase the result.

Tottenham seized the opportunity and scored four more goals to set the final score of 1-6 and walk away with their biggest win at Old Trafford in club’s history.

The biggest shock was left for the end. In the last game of day, Aston Villa faced Liverpool and demolished the reigning champs to get an unlikely 7-2 win.

Villa had a flying opening of the match, with Ollie Watkins scoring a brace to give his team a 2-0 lead midway through the first period. Liverpool hinted a comeback in 33^rd minute, cutting the lead in half thanks to Mo Sallah. However, comeback never came.

Inspired Villa continued to score at will, with John McGinn increasing to 3-1 just several minutes later while Watkins completed a hat-trick before the first half concluded. Salah once again left his team in the game with a goal in 60^th minute, only for Jack Grealish to score twice and give Liverpool their most devastating loss since 1963.

Reportedly, Tottenham isn’t insisting on a permanent move and would be willing to let Alli leave on a season-long loan. This option would work for PSG, as they would have time to properly assess the 24-year-old player before making a significant financial commitment.

Despite being considered one of the world’s best young players just a couple of seasons ago, Dele Alli struggled to make an impact for Tottenham recently and has lost his place in the team’s starting lineup. And while manager Jose Mourinho expressed his support for the player in the past, it appears that he isn’t convinced Alli can benefit his team.

“I am not responsible for the market, I don’t know how to answer that question,” said Mourinho when asked about Alli’s departure. “What I want is a balanced squad. That’s what I want. He doesn’t need to be sacrificed, but a squad is a puzzle.”

Tottenham were looking to offload Alli earlier this summer, trying to include him in the deal that brought Gareth Bale from Real Madrid. However, Real rejected the proposal, not being interested in Alli.

Alli joined Tottenham in 2015 from MK Dons. He played 223 games for the Spurs so far and managed to score 62 goals. Additionally, he has 37 appearances and three goals with the England national team.
