for a major midfield rebuild next summer, with reports suggesting the north London club are planning to spend big on two of the Premier League&#8217;s most promising young talents, Brighton&#8217;s Carlos Baleva and Crystal Palace&#8217;s Adam Wharton.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to TEAMtalk, Spurs believe the pair will be central to a long-term revamp of their midfield as they look to inject youth, energy and creativity into a squad that has struggled under Thomas Frank.<\/p>\n<p>Tottenham&#8217;s recent struggles in the Premier League, with them going five games without a win, have exposed a glaring weakness in midfield.<\/p>\n<p>Injuries, inconsistency and a lack of dynamism have hampered build-up play, leaving Frank looking for new solutions.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Thomas_Frank_is_struggling_in_midfield\"><\/span>Thomas Frank is struggling in midfield<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Frank&#8217;s arrival from Brentford was intended to bring tactical organization and control, but the midfield&#8217;s lack of balance and attacking ambition quickly became a major concern.<\/p>\n<p>Spurs leaders, led by sporting director Johan Lange, are reportedly determined to address those deficiencies through the transfer market.<\/p>\n<p>Bareva, 21, has been one of Brighton&#8217;s best performers since joining from Lille in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>He is known for his strong ball-carrying ability and impressive composure under pressure.<\/p>\n<p>Tottenham know securing his signature will not be cheap, with Brighton&#8217;s well-documented success in maximizing the value of players, as seen with Moises Caicedo and Alexis Mac Allister.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Wharton is also being pursued by top English clubs such as Manchester United and Liverpool.<\/p>\n<p>Wharton&#8217;s value has skyrocketed in recent months and increased competition for his services will only make it harder for the north London club to sign him.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tottenham_plan_ambitious_double_transfer_for_midfielder\"><\/span>Tottenham plan ambitious double transfer for midfielder<span

discipline, the club&#8217;s midfield now requires youth and technical dynamism to match Frank&#8217;s evolving philosophy.<\/p>\n<p>With increased pressure on Frank to turn the team around and fans demanding more creativity and control, a move could happen next year. Whether they join Spurs or wait for another club is another matter.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Tottenham are willing to pay around 60 million euros for Everton and Newcastle<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End -->\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tottenham Hotspur are preparing for a major midfield rebuild next summer, with reports suggesting the north London club are planning to spend big on two of the Premier League&#8217;s most promising young talents, Brighton&#8217;s Carlos Baleva and Crystal Palace&#8217;s Adam Wharton.
