Tottenham will need to attack reinforcements, especially as his son Heung Min sets out for MLS and quickly enters the business end of the transfer window this summer after a heartbreaking update on James Madison’s knee injury.
Spurs announced Thursday morning that they are scheduled to undergo surgery with the ACL where the latter burst. This is expected to keep him out for a very large portion of 2025/2026.

This is a hammer blow for Thomas Frank, who was banking at Madison this season to become a star 10 at Madison.
Already taken away from being in the Europa League final due to the same right knee, the English playmaker will look from the side again as the Spurs try to advance without him.
Currently, pressure is on Spurs recruitment team, especially Chairman Daniel Levy and Technical Director Johan Lange, to dig his heels and source instant Maddison replacements as quickly as possible.
The report links Ebekieze’s movements at this window point with the club. This is an ideal fit, but it’s not easy as Crystal Palace digs its heels and Arsenal pursues a 27-year-old contract.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Tottenham also contacted Mann City about the recent Jack Grelish move, but Everton is currently in more formal discussions and ahead of Frank’s side in the current race.
Harvey Elliott is another attack midfielder who appears as a target for Spurs, according to Talksport.
However, as RB Leipzig is currently debating the sense of England Under 21, the Spurs will need to quickly determine whether they are potentially comparable to Olewerner’s side.
Frank faces the near-impossible job of filling in some way the void left by Madison, his son Hyun Min and the injured Dejan Krussevierky, and reports from Turkish news outlet Takbim claim Tottenham can turn to Sapellig for answers.
Tottenham makes an “official offer” for Galatasaray star Barris Irmaz
According to media outlets, Galatasarei has serious interest in Barris Irmaz in the people of North London.
The 25-year-old, who played a variety of offensive roles last season, finished 24/25 with 14 goals and six assists in all competitions. They faced Tottenham when the Turkish champions defeated 3-2 in the Europa League.
Now, Takvim says the player’s agent recently met with Galatasaray’s chief to discuss his future with the club.
The unknown representative informed Yilmaz that, as Takbim quoted, Tottenham would “have an official offer soon.”
Galatasaray is set to demand around £30 million from Turkish International, which played a key role during its country’s surprise run in last year’s Euro 2024 quarterfinals.
Yilmaz has been linked to the move to the Premier League for some time, and media members believe he could be a “attractive” option for the English side.
“Yilmaz is different,” journalist Graeme Bailey told Geordie Boot Boys in January.
“He’s an attractive player. He can play anywhere across the front three and is a very clever footballer. He’s a good age. He’s a funny guy to watch. Nottingham Forest is watching, and there are others in the Premier League too.”
