Two Tottenham Hotspur players have been ranked among the Premier League’s best U23 talents, despite the club’s poor league form.It has been a shambles for Tottenham Hotspur on the pitch given their horrendous start to life in the Premier League this season.The Lilywhites have managed just two points from their first five games, drawing twice and losing three, leaving them as one of three clubs yet to taste victory.It is a poor start considering the amount of money spent in the summer transfer window, with Spurs splashing close to £400 million.IncomingsAndrew RobertsonFreeMarcos SenesiFreeMartin DubravkaFreeJan Paul van Hecke£52mMateus Fernandes£85mSandro Tonali£100mSavinho£85mOmar Marmoush£60mTosin Adarabioyo£12mMykhailo MudrykLoanTotal spent£394mOutgoingsLuka Vuskovic£50mWill Lankshear£20mRadu Dragusin£21mAlejo Veliz£7.7mAlfie Devine£6mTynan Thompson£8mManor Solomon£7mCristian Romero£34.1mAshley Phillips£20mDjed Spence£30mKevin Danso£25mPape Matar Sarr£25.6mTotal received£254.8mTottenham’s net spend£139.2mTottenham would have hoped to be competing at the other end of the table, but instead they sit rock bottom, having scored only two goals in the league.

The winger did, however, find the net on his debut in the Carabao Cup against Charlton Athletic.Antonin Kinsky has been part of the Spurs squad for longer, having joined in the winter of 2025. He had to wait patiently with Guglielmo Vicario holding the No. 1 spot until the Italian’s loan move in the summer opened the door.Tottenham have shown faith in Kinsky by making the 22‑year‑old Czech international their first‑choice goalkeeper this season and rewarding him with a new contract.Savio was named on the left of WhoScored U23 Premier League Team Of The Season so far after receiving a 7.25 rating, while Kinsky was selected as goalkeeper with a 6.46 rating.Here is the full WhoScored XI:U23 Premier League Team Of The Season So far 💫 pic.twitter.com/MoUaqnNAYE— WhoScored (@WhoScored) September 24, 2026Why Savio belongs among the Premier League’s top U23 stars this seasonSeeing both Kinsky and Savio make the list is not entirely surprising, as the pair have impressed at times this season.Savio looked a bright spark in the game against Aston Villa last time out and could have scored, drawing several fine saves from Zion Suzuki.The Brazilian wide forward is also in the top two for successful dribbles in the Premier League this campaign, with Mohammed Kudus the only player ahead of him. No player has averaged more key passes than Savio.SávioTottenham – Premier League (2026 – 2027)Appearances3Average Rating7.23Shots3Shots on Target3Goals0Key Passes9Dribble Attempts24Successful Dribbles13Stats correct as of September 25, 2026.Kinsky has also shown his quality, with standout displays against Nottingham Forest and Everton where he managed back-to-back clean sheets.However, the goalkeeper still needs to improve his shot-stopping. His save percentage stands at 60%, while his goals-prevented tally is -1.73, suggesting he should have conceded fewer than he has so far this term.READ MORE: Watch Tottenham’s Mikey Moore score for England U20s vs Italy as captainThe post Tottenham have two of the best U23 stars in the Premier League this season appeared first on Spurs Web.
