This comes after the \u00a355 million move for Kudus, and so will not affect it. Ornstein outlines that Frank has been a &#8220;long-term admirer&#8221; of the Englishman, who is coming off the back of his best Premier League season to date.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2025\/07\/09\/arsenal-noni-madueke-transfer-chelsea\/\" target=\"_self\">Arsenal Suffer Blow as Bid for \u2018Lightning Fast\u2019 Forward Falls Below Steep Asking Price<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the 25-year-old is reportedly also &#8220;high on the recruitment lists of several leading clubs&#8221;. Manchester City &#8220;strongly considered&#8221; a move, but landed on the acquisition of Rayan Cherki, who has managed a goal and an assist in 121 minutes for the Cityzens at the Club World Cup.<\/p>\n<p>Fabrizio Romano has now <a  href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/FabrizioRomano\/status\/1943346490476269694\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">added<\/a> that Spurs have triggered a \u00a360 million release clause for the player, who will undergo his medical tomorrow. The journalist gives his famous &#8220;Here We Go&#8221;.<\/p>\n<h3>Where Do All These Attackers Fit In?<\/h3>\n<p>The signings of Gibbs-White and Kudus would add to the group of Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison, Brennan Johnson, Mathys Tel, Wilson Odobert, and Son Heung-min as players who can play as supporting wide-players or attacking midfielders. Whilst the South Korean club captain may depart, Mikey Moore looks to break into the squad, and Manor Solomon&#8217;s destination is not yet confirmed.<\/p>\n<p>However, whilst this may seem to be an overcrowded squad, Spurs head into an action-packed season in which they play Champions League football for the first time in two years. The reformed competition now has eight games in the first phase (alongside a likely play-off match) in which every fixture matters; with just eight automatic qualification spots, there are no longer low-stakes matchups at the end of the group\/league stage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2025\/07\/09\/manchester-united-new-veteran-strikers\/\" target=\"_self\">Manchester United Need To \u2018Clear Space\u2019 Before Targeting Options Including Former Premier League Strikers<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Tottenham&#8217;s attackers are also quite injury-prone, with many of last season&#8217;s cohort missing chunks of the season. More depth and rotation could be key to avoiding issues. Furthermore, Frank is a new manager, and some of Ange Postecoglou&#8217;s stars may not thrive under the Dane. Giving him plenty of options should enable the team to hit the ground running, which is desperately needed after years of inconsistency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After the signing of Mohammed Kudus has effectively been completed, Tottenham Hotspur are now &#8220;turning attention&#8221; to Morgan Gibbs-White, according to David Ornstein.
