Tottenham Targets Bayern Star for Major Move Amid £34m Release Clause
Tottenham Hotspur is making significant moves in the January transfer window. The club, under the direction of Thomas Frank, has already secured talents like Conor Gallagher for £34 million from Atletico Madrid and left-back Souza for £13 million from Santos. With the transfer deadline approaching on February 2, Spurs are focused on strengthening their squad further.
Bayern Munich Star on Tottenham’s Radar
In a bold approach, Tottenham has expressed interest in Bayern Munich’s midfielder Leon Goretzka. Reports indicate that representatives from Spurs have engaged with Goretzka, who is set to become a free agent this summer. The 30-year-old has had a solid season, making 18 appearances in the Bundesliga and six in the Champions League. However, competition for his signature is fierce, with Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, and AC Milan also keen on the talented player.
Bissouma’s Future at Tottenham Uncertain
Yves Bissouma’s situation at Tottenham is becoming increasingly precarious. The midfielder has seen limited playing time this season, featuring in only two Premier League games. As a result, Galatasaray has ramped up their interest, sending their vice president to London for discussions. With Bissouma’s contract expiring this summer, Tottenham may have to consider a deal, especially after investing £25 million in him back in 2022.
Potential Additions to the Attack
On the attacking front, Spurs are eyeing Osasuna’s Victor Munoz. The 22-year-old winger has been impressive since his arrival, contributing three goals and an assist in 21 appearances. Despite a release clause of £34.6 million that could facilitate a deal, complexities arise. Real Madrid holds a buyback clause worth approximately £6.9 million, complicating any potential transfer. Additionally, Osasuna, with Munoz under contract until 2030, may not be eager to negotiate on their asking price.

- Conor Gallagher – £34 million from Atletico Madrid
