What began as a rather disastrous summer with the looting of Ange Postecoglou has transformed into something that could be great for Tottenham Hotspur.
Thomas Frank has a big job ahead of him domestically and continents next season, but it appears Daniel Levy and Co are meant to give him what he needs.
After making the necessary signatures to another young prospect at Japanese defender Kotatakaai, the North Londoner bought Mohammed Kudus for £55 million.
The former West Ham United star is definitely going to add something special to Frank’s offense. Now it appears that the club is likely to land another Premier League star, which will become his dream of 10.
Tottenham Hotspur is targeting Premier League stars
In an understandable bid to improve their terrifying domestic form ahead of next season, the Spurs appear to have made concrete efforts to target players who did very well in the Premier League last season.
One of them is Yoane Wissa, which, according to reports, could be available for around £50 million.
That may sound a lot to the 38-year-old Brentford, but with 20 goals and five assists in 39 appearances last season, he’s worth the spending.
That being said, he is clearly not a potential target for Kudus’ dream 10, as he is a centre-forward. The tag will be sent to Morgan Gibbs White.
Yes, it is now turning into the latest transfer saga that includes the North Londoners, and a recent report from transfer expert Fabrizio Romano revealed that the Spurs are maintaining their desire to sign Nottingham Forest Star.
Italian journalists claim that the tricky tree threatens legal action following the revitalization of Lily White in the British £60 million release clause, but the club is sure they will get a man.
Journalist Graeme Bailey also reports that Gibbs White told forest owner Evangelos Marinakis he wanted to sign the Spurs, which is definitely due to the player’s desire to make a move. That’s despite interest from Manchester City.
The deal represents a serious financial commitment from the Europa League champions, but it is worth one, especially as he will be the 10-man dream for Kudus, given Gibbs White’s form last season.
Why does Gibbs White become Kudus’ 10 dreams?
There are several reasons why Gibbs White will be Kudus’ 10 dreams, but one of the most important things is simply his output.
For example, the “exceptional” midfielder, known as Pep Guardiola, scored seven goals and provided 10 assists in just 34 appearances last season.
That is, he averaged goal involvement every other game, or every 166.11 minutes.

Imagine the goals and support that former Irons Stars can play with creative and effective people.
Plus, looking at the underlying numbers at the 25-year-old, we can see some of the ways he can lift the ball to potential teammates in the future.
For example, FBREF ranked him in the top 8% of offensive midfielders and wingers to pass to the final third place in the Premier League last season, with the top 9% of through-balls per 90 showing why some analysts believe he is a “monster” in the transition stage.
Finally, it’s easy to overlook the simple fact that the Stafford-born ace has already been proven in the league. Therefore, you should barely need bedding period. Therefore, he can begin offering opportunities to Ghana International from day one.
Ultimately, it becomes a expensive deal, but the Spurs seem to be in parallel with Gibbs White’s winner, especially Kudus.
