United States international Folarin Balogun has emerged as a shock transfer target for Tottenham Hotspur following his highly publicised World Cup controversy. The Monaco forward, who found himself at the centre of a bizarre red card scandal involving Donald Trump, could now make a sensational return to the Premier League as Roberto De Zerbi looks to rebuild his squad.

Cristian Romero may be heading for the exits at Tottenham, putting the captain’s armband up for grabs. Toby Alderweireld has told GOAL what Spurs “don’t need” from their next skipper, while explaining the qualities that a new on-field leader must possess - with the likes of Micky van de Ven, Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison in the running for that role.

Spurs on the hunt for a striker

Newly-promoted Hull City have joined West Ham United in the race to sign Tottenham Hotspur outcast Manor Solomon. While Spurs value the 27-year-old Israeli international at around £20m, the winger is expected to attract opening bids of between £10m and £20m, with a deal set to gain momentum quickly over the coming days.
