To make sure that their team can persevere through the upcoming season, Tottenham Hotspur has a lot of work ahead of them this summer.
After taking over the Spurs last year, Ange Postecoglou has mostly done a fantastic job of putting the squad back on track following a disappointing 2022–2023 season.
In fact, Tottenham did appear to be dark horses to win the Premier League title at one time during the season.
But Spurs’ play has now deteriorated, and their chances of finishing in the top four have all but vanished after four straight league defeats.
Tottenham has undoubtedly laid the groundwork for success, and in the upcoming months, they must continue to build upon it.
Spurs may consider strengthening their offensive line, as a recent article about the Lilywhites and their “devastating” forward suggests.
According to TEAMtalk, Tottenham is one of the Premier League teams vying for Albert Gudmundsson of Genoa.
In addition to Spurs, it appears that Aston Villa and Manchester United are also monitoring the 26-year-old.
Tottenham have the ‘inside track’ on Gudmundsson thanks to their talks with Genoa over Radu Dragusin and Djed Spence.
The Lilywhites may make an offer for Gudmundsson during the upcoming weeks when Spurs and Genoa hold talks about the latter player.
According to the source, the Italians are open to considering ideas worth at least €30 million (£26 million).
Who is Albert Gudmundsson, the Tottenham Hotspur target?
Gudmundsson, who was born in Reykjavik, started out in the youth system of KR Reykjavik before moving to the Netherlands to play for Heerenveen in 2013.
He advanced through the Dutch system, playing for teams like AZ and PSV Eindhoven before moving to Genoa in 2022 for an estimated £1 million.
Gudmundsson scored 11 goals and dished out five assists in 36 games, which was a major factor in their 2022–2023 promotion from Serie B.
With sixteen goals and four assists from thirty-four club appearances, the rumored Tottenham target has continued to grow and has drawn the attention of Premier League scouts.
Throughout his career, Gudmundsson has been used as a center-forward, winger, second striker, central midfielder, and even as a No. 10 player.
Teammate Kevin Strootman even claimed late in the previous season that Gudmundsson was “devastating” and that he reminded him of Mohamed Salah when he was at Roma.
