Tottenham are hoping to go all the way in one of the domestic competitions under Roberto De Zerbi this season.
The new Premier League season kicks off this weekend and, after a long time, there is a sense of optimism in and around N17. Tottenham are kickstarting a new era under Roberto de Zerbi as the club aims to compete at the top end of the league table and put last season’s nightmares behind them. The Lilywhites have shown immense ambition in the transfer market, splashing more than £230m on new players in the last few months. And it goes without saying that De Zerbi will be looking to start the campaign on a positive note.
The North Londoners have managed to fix their defence and midfield by landing six new players during the first half of the transfer window. The Lewis family have made sure that Roberto de Zerbi gets the players he needs to help Spurs climb back to the top of the English football pyramid. Only then will the Lilywhites be able to build on their 2025 Europa League success and establish themselves as a force at the top of English football.
Spurs kickstart the new campaign with a trip to Brentford on Sunday. It is not going to be an easy match by any means, as the Bees look well prepared for a tight clash this weekend. The West London side recently defeated Eintracht Frankfurt 7-0, making it clear that they are ready to take the next step under Keith Andrews. As a result, the Lilywhites will have to be ready for a tough challenge as they travel to the Gtech Stadium, a ground where they have not yet lost a single league match since 2021.
Roberto de Zerbi expecting big things at Tottenham
After narrowly surviving relegation last season, Tottenham are hoping to rectify their mistakes this time around under Roberto de Zerbi’s guidance. With new players coming in, the Lilywhites have a strong chance of competing at the top end of the Premier League table this season. There have been plenty of positive signs during pre-season, with the players appearing to be fighting hard for one another and quickly adapting to the Italian tactician’s playing style.
The Spurs boss has now revealed what he aims to achieve at N17 during his time at the club. Speaking to TNT Sports (via X), De Zerbi said,
“To bring the club north. Not alone, but with the players, the board, and with all the people who work at the training ground. I want to bring the club to the top of the Premier League. Obviously, it is very tough to win trophies. But we are Tottenham and we have to arrive there at the right moment to fight and to compete, and to win the trophy. Because the potential of our owner, of our board is very high.”
Roberto de Zerbi clearly does not lack intent or character. That is exactly why he seems to be the perfect fit for Spurs. The Italian tactician has not shied away from stating that he wants to help the club compete at the top of the Premier League in the near future. De Zerbi wants to create a legacy at N17, especially with everyone associated with the North London club sharing such high ambitions.
Managing a club like Tottenham means that the team has to compete for major trophies every season. And that is exactly what Roberto de Zerbi wants to do during his time at N17. The record-breaking investment by the Lewis family is further proof that the Italian tactician is being backed by the Spurs hierarchy as he aims to get the best out of his players in the coming months and help them compete for more silverware at the end of this season.
