Fabrizio Romano makes exciting transfer declaration for Tottenham fans after Morgan Gibbs-White deal
Tottenham Hotspur fans are buzzing with excitement following a whirlwind 48 hours that have completely transformed the club’s summer transfer narrative. After a quiet and frustrating start to the window, supporters had begun to fear that history was repeating itself—with chairman Daniel Levy once again accused of not backing a new manager adequately.
But now, optimism is surging through the fan base thanks to a series of bold and expensive moves, and a new update from trusted transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has given fans even more reason to dream.
Not long ago, there was growing unease among the Spurs faithful. With other clubs making statement signings, Tottenham’s inactivity in the transfer market was beginning to wear thin. The concern was that, like in previous years, Levy and the club’s hierarchy were leaving their manager—this time new boss Thomas Frank—without the tools needed to compete at the highest level.
But all of that has changed dramatically in the span of just two days. Tottenham have sent a clear message to the rest of the Premier League that they mean business. The club officially announced the signing of Mohammed Kudus from West Ham United for a hefty £55 million fee. The Ghanaian attacking midfielder is regarded as one of the most dynamic and versatile players in the league and instantly improves Spurs’ frontline.
Then came an even bigger development on Thursday, when Spurs activated the £60 million release clause of Nottingham Forest star Morgan Gibbs-White. The England international is now poised to become Tottenham’s fourth major signing of the summer. While the transfer is not fully finalized—due to Forest alleging that Tottenham made an “illegal approach”—the North London club remains optimistic that the deal will go through before the end of the window.
These ambitious moves mark a notable shift in Tottenham’s transfer strategy. No longer content with signing purely for potential, Spurs are now targeting players with Premier League experience and proven quality. It’s a change that has not gone unnoticed by fans or pundits.
What’s even more thrilling for Tottenham supporters is that Fabrizio Romano, in his latest YouTube update, has revealed that the club’s spending spree isn’t over. The renowned journalist stated that Spurs are working on a “really ambitious project” under new head coach Thomas Frank and that “more signings are coming” in the weeks ahead.
This flurry of activity has raised serious questions about whether ENIC, Tottenham’s ownership group, have finally changed their long-standing approach to club investment. Historically, Spurs have operated under a self-sustaining model, with very limited financial injections from ownership. In fact, ENIC have only invested a total of £122.1 million into the club since acquiring it in 2001.
However, this summer has already seen the club surpass that figure in spending—with over £150 million shelled out so far—despite no major sales to balance the books. That’s a significant departure from previous years, where player sales were often required to fund incoming transfers due to reported cash flow constraints.
Journalists like Matt Law and Alasdair Gold have taken this as a sign that a serious injection of capital could be arriving from ENIC this summer. Whether that’s due to increased revenue, long-term financial planning, or a genuine shift in ambition, the result is the same: Tottenham are acting like a club with big plans and even bigger expectations.
For fans who have long dreamed of seeing their club compete with the Premier League elite, these past few days have felt like a turning point. With Thomas Frank at the helm, marquee signings arriving, and Fabrizio Romano teasing more to come, Tottenham supporters have every reason to believe that something special may finally be brewing at Hotspur Way.
