Ange Postecoglou makes Tottenham transfer stance clear as 2024 summer draws near
Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou has indicated that the club will be in the market for a striker and a defensive midfielder in the summer transfer window.
The Lilywhites have progressed massively since the Australian gaffer took charge of the club last summer and they were heading into a traditional top-four finish until Newcastle United happened. It was by far the worst display from this set of players since the turn of the season.
A 4-0 triumph by Newcastle United at the St. James’s Stadium on Saturday assures that the club are back in fifth position, three points behind Unai Emery’s Aston Villa, who won against Arsenal yesterday. Spurs still have a game in hand over the Villans, although the heat is on the Lilywhites now.
The setback at St. James Park did highlight a few critical concerns in the squad that must be addressed ahead of next season. The North Londoners will be looking to sign a new number six and number nine in the off-season, per Football.London.
Recruiting a potential upgrade in the number six role would help the club strengthen the playing sequences in both directions while buying a potential striker in the summer is maybe the worst-kept secret in world football as of now. Spurs are yet to sign a marquee striker following the departure of Harry Kane last summer when he joined Bayern Munich in a record transfer deal.

Tottenham are in a prolonged self-sustaining process, and these setbacks help them re-access their position in the process and potential potholes to progress. There are two positions that the club could potentially upgrade in the summer, and they would be the next steps to a high-ceiling team playing the Ange way.
