Overview
- Tottenham sit bottom of the Premier League and are still without a win after five league matches, having scored only two goals so far.
- The club completed a major summer overhaul of roughly ten players with reported spending figures ranging from just over £300 million to more than £400 million.
- Roberto De Zerbi is facing mounting pressure with bookmakers making him the favorite to be the next Premier League manager sacked and pundits publicly naming Mauricio Pochettino as a possible replacement.
- Club insiders say the hierarchy remain outwardly calm, are treating De Zerbi as part of a long-term project and are actively exploring hiring a senior sporting executive to strengthen recruitment and decision-making.
- De Zerbi has pointed to players’ fitness and slow integration of new signings as causes of poor form, and the club is already discussing January sales to fund a new centre‑forward if results do not improve.
