Wait 5 sec.

Tottenham Hotspur look set to waste little time in the transfer market this summer, with the club now seemingly on the verge of completing their first piece of business ahead of what promises to be another crucial rebuild in north London.Tottenham Hotspur are expected to be active in the transfer market this summer following their abysmal Premier League campaign, which saw them finish 17th for the second season in a row.It was far from a straightforward campaign for the Lilywhites, who were embroiled in a full-on relegation scrap that went down to the final day of the season, only for Spurs to secure safety after finishing two points clear of London rivals West Ham.Both the club’s manager, Roberto De Zerbi, and those higher up have expressed a desire to turn the club’s fortunes around ahead of next season.Just today, Spurs Web relayed a statement from the Lewis family, who promised to invest in the squad and get Tottenham back competing at the very top.Photo by Michael Regan/Getty ImagesTottenham close in on Andy Robertson transferFans will no doubt be watching closely to see whether the club’s actions match their words as Spurs head into yet another summer rebuild.The first Tottenham signing now appears close to completion, with Fabrizio Romano reporting that Andy Robertson’s move to Spurs is expected to go ahead as planned.Tottenham have been in the race for Robertson since the winter transfer window and came close to completing a deal before the move collapsed due to Liverpool’s lack of depth at full-back.Spurs Web have since reported on a verbal agreement that was dependent on Tottenham’s Premier League status following the failed winter move, and Robertson’s camp is now said to be looking to honour that agreement.Juventus attempted to hijack the move, as previously reported, but Romano has now stated that those efforts have been unsuccessful.In a post on X, Romano revealed the latest on the deal and confirmed Tottenham are now expected to complete the signing soon.He wrote: “Tottenham reach verbal agreement to sign Andy Robertson, here we go! “Pact expected to be respected and deal to be signed soon despite Juventus proposal to try hijack the deal. “Robertson, wanted by #THFC last January and again now with De Zerbi. It’s happening.”🚨 EXCL: Tottenham reach verbal agreement to sign Andy Robertson, here we go!Pact expected to be respected and deal to be signed soon despite Juventus proposal to try hijack the deal.Robertson, wanted by #THFC last January and again now with De Zerbi.It’s happening. ✅🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 pic.twitter.com/62vY9Y3AUL— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) May 27, 2026Spurs still need more quality additionsIt is clear Tottenham are looking to add more experience to the squad, and that certainly appears to be the thinking behind the Robertson move.However, Spurs will need more than experienced players if they are to compete with the very best sides in the division.More quality is still needed in other areas of the squad, and it appears there are already plans in place to strengthen both the centre-back and forward positions.Spurs Web have since reported that Marcos Senesi could well be the next player through the door, with a verbal agreement similar to Robertson’s reportedly reached following the close of the winter window.Tottenham are also back in the race to sign Savinho from Manchester City after missing out on the winger last summer.READ MORE: The Tottenham redemption story nobody saw coming but might go down in N17 folkloreThe post Tottenham receive first ‘here we go’ of summer after Fabrizio Romano's transfer update appeared first on Spurs Web.
