In the summer of 2023, when former Spurs manager Antonio Conte left the club, many wondered which direction the board would take. With the appointment of Ange Postecoglou, there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel. They started well with eight league wins from 10 games, and the fans started to dream big. Although they have dipped in form a bit, they still sit 8 points behind the current league leaders, Liverpool.
They are now seen as genuine title contenders, and their shot at the top four looks very likely. Despite the signings of some amazing players, Tottenham will still need to make a couple of major signings if they make the Top 4 this season and want to remain there. The competition in the Premier League is that fierce.
With former top striker, Harry Kane, joining German champions Bayern Munich, their front line needs fresh legs. High-quality mega players that Spurs could buy next summer will be discussed.
How Gamblers Are Betting on Tottenham Hotspur to Make the Top 4
The 2023–2024 Premier League season has been an amazing one for Spurs. They have started the season well and are posed to finish in the top four. Tottenham have 40 points, just three points from the 3rd and 4th-placed teams.
With the vacuum left by Harry Kane, other attackers such as Captain Son Heung Min, Richarlison and Bryan Gil have stepped up. With their form, many sporting punters have staked on them to make the Top 4 at the end of the season and it is not a surprise especially if you have seen Ange Postecoglou’s boys this season. They have played with purpose and flair and barring any major injury crisis, they should be making top 4 at the end of the season.
The odds for this vary across sports betting sites, but they all offer good odds on these options. Some of the top rated online casinos and sports betting sites are offering juice odds on Tottenham making the top four this season.
Mega Stars Tottenham Hotspurs could sign this summer if they qualify for the top 4
Here are some highly-rated soccer players who could end up at Tottenham if they make the Top 4 this season:
Connor Gallagher
The Chelsea star is one of many players that Tottenham have been linked to in recent times. The Chelsea academy graduate who did excellently well with Crystal Palace last season has been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge with Chelsea reportedly the forerunners for his signature. Although Gallagher has been a regular with Chelsea this season and has captained them a few times, he is still consistently been linked with a move away from the club.
Should Tottenham get him this summer, as January is looking unlikely, the 23-year-old will form a good partnership with fellow English international Maddison, who has become a sensation for Spurs this season. With just 18 months left on his contract, if Tottenham really wants the Englishman, he should not be difficult to get.
Mohammed Kudus
Mohammed Kudus remains one of the top African talents who plays in the English Premier League. He was plying his trade in Holland with Ajax last season before his huge move to West Ham. The £38 million paid for this winger has been worth it. The pacey winger has scored 10 goals this season and created 1 assist.
He has adapted well to the league and should Tottenham decide to spend what West Ham require, he will need no bedding in period. Luckily for Tottenham, Kudus doesn’t have a release clause, at least not publicly. The downside to this is that he still has 4 years left on his contract, which means Tottenham can expect to pay more than double of the £38m West Ham paid to sign him from Ajax last summer.
Ivan Toney
With the move of Harry Kane to Germany, the front line of Tottenham Hotspur has been depleted. There has been more workload on Captain Son Heung Min, Richarlison and Bryan Gill ; therefore, a sharp striker is important. Although Werner is currently on loan, I don’t see his deal becoming permanent.
Ivan Toney who plays for Brentford and is one of the Premier League’s best strikers has in recent times been linked with a move to Tottenham. Although he was banned for 10 months for betting offenses, his ban has ended and he has been scoring for Brentford as usual.
The 27 year old was recently quoted as saying;
“You can never predict when is the right time to move elsewhere, but I think it’s obvious I want to play for a top club,” he said.
“Everybody wants to play for a top club, that is fighting for titles. Whether it’s this January that is the right time for a club to come in and pay the right money, who knows?
“But my main focus is to do what I do on the pitch, and let the background work take care of itself.”
“To be the best, you have to play with the best and compete against the best,” he added. “We all know Harry Kane is one of the best strikers in the world and he’s been doing it for some years now.
“If I want to be England’s No 1, then I have to compete against him. He’s not a bad striker to be taking tips off and be training with. I just have to keep scoring goals, keep playing well and then who knows what could happen?
“If I just fall short, then hopefully I can become the second best in the world.”
Although he won’t come cheap, if Tottenham wants a striker who can guarantee 20–25 goals every season, then they should look at this 27-year-old striker.
Brentford are a difficult team to bargain with, and as an English player, Spurs or whoever signs him will need to cough out at more than £60m to sign him in the summer when Brentford are likely to be willing sellers to avoid him running down his contract.
Tottenham will need to move quickly if they want to sign him because other big clubs are also lurking. But all these will only be possible if they make the top 4. Champions League football will attract him, as will the opportunity to still stay in London.
Jonathan David
Another striker Tottenham could attempt to sign in the summer is Canada-born Lille of France striker, Jonathan David. Tottenham have reportedly sent scouts to watch the Canada international a couple of times. However, Tottenham are not the only one who has been linked with the striker, their north London rivals, Arsenal have also been linked with the signing of the versatile striker.
Jonathan David has a contract with Lille until the summer of 2025, which he joined from Gent for £25 million. His first year in France was disappointing, with just five goals in 18 matches. However, he has picked up form in recent times with him scoring 11 goals and creating 6 assists so far this season in all competitions.
As with Ivan Toney, Tottenham are not the only ones interested in signing the 24 year old, Arsenal and Chelsea have also been linked with his signing and Spurs will have to move fast if they want to sign the Canadian.
Conclusion
Tottenham are currently one of the form boys in the Premier League and look certain to make the top 4, should they make the top four this season, the fans can expect some interesting business to be done in the summer transfer window.
