Igor Tudor on his decision not to use Xavi Simons: When asked about Simons in his press conference, Tudor made it clear that even if the former Leipzig man was a major signing for the club, he currently felt he couldn't start him as he was simply doing his best for the team.

Kinsky's opportunity to impress turned into a horror show after he slipped to allow Marcos Llorente to score after six minutes before he conceded again in the 14th minute, but worse followed 92 seconds later when his scuffed kick allowed Julian Alvarez to walk the ball into the empty net.

There are always rumours, I'm always linked [to clubs]. To Tottenham, just like at one time I was linked to Espanyol, or to other clubs. In the end, especially because of my past at those clubs, when things aren't going well, people tend to fall back on emotions and say, 'Well, with Mauricio we played good football,' or whatever it may be.

The North London derby rarely needs much hype - it is one of English football's fiercest rivalries, and also one of the top flight's most entertaining. This weekend's edition feels especially big. Tottenham sit in 16th place, have recently parted company with Thomas Frank and appointed interim head coach Igor Tudor in a bid save their season. Meanwhile, Arsenal have dropped vital points in the title race in recent weeks and looked far from their best against Brentford and Wolves.

England youth International George Jobling has been released from the Chelsea Academy this week, and Tottenham have now secured his signature. According to a report from TEAMtalk, the London club has secured the services of the England international, and he is expected to sign a professional contract with them when he turns 17. The teenage talent is highly rated at the youth level, and he has a bright future.

The prospect of Antonio Rudiger making a dramatic return to the Premier League is gathering momentum ahead of the summer transfer window, sources close to the agents industry have informed CaughtOffside. The experienced German defender is approaching the final months of his contract with Real Madrid, and uncertainty surrounding his future in Spain has alerted several clubs across Europe. The defender has made eight appearances in La Liga for Real Madrid this season.

Wilson is not the biggest name, so some fans might be disappointed if this ends up being the full extent of their club's business today. Still, the 18-year-old has already played regularly for Hearts and at senior international level with Scotland, so he could be someone with a very bright future in the game. James Wilson transfer: Where will the Arsenal and Tottenham target end up?

Yeah, look, he would be an interesting option for both Manchester United and Tottenham, obviously he has got a glittering CV from his time at Barcelona. Xavi during his time as Barcelona manager (Photo by Juan Manuel Serrano Arce/Getty Images) He obviously had a spell in charge at Barcelona where he did win the league, but he's been out of work since the summer of 2024.

The absence of the wantaway Lucas Paqueta has given Mateus Fernandes a chance to take on more responsibility for West Ham. Paqueta, who is said to be nursing a minor back problem, was unavailable again for last week's win against Spurs but Nuno Espirito Santo's struggling side coped without the Flamengo target. They called on Fernandes to dictate the flow in midfield and the diligent Portuguese did not disappoint.

Rennes forward Mohamed Kader Meite has been linked with a move away from the French outfit, and several Premier League clubs are keen on him. According to a TeamTalk report, the 18-year-old striker is one of the most talented young players in French football right now, with five goal contributions in the league this season. Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal have submitted a 35 million offer to get the deal done.

Tottenham have made a surprise enquiry for West Ham winger Crysencio Summerville, as the club looks to address a growing problem on the left side of their attack. According to the Daily Mail, Spurs have sounded out their London rivals over a potential deal for the 24-year-old Dutchman, who is believed to be valued at around 25 million. The timing is striking, just days after Summerville came back to haunt Tottenham, scoring the opening goal in West Ham's 21 win at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last Saturday.

Speculation surrounding Micky van de Ven's future at Tottenham has intensified after a sensational insider claim linked the defender with a dream move to Liverpool. According to a report from a trusted source on X, the Dutch international is pushing towards a summer exit, with Anfield identified as his preferred destination. The timing of the rumour has raised eyebrows, coming amid growing unrest at Spurs and a season that has begun to unravel both on and off the pitch.

Manchester United could use more quality on the flanks, and the 28-year-old would be an excellent addition. However, they have Matheus Cunha playing in a similar role. The Brazilian will have to be moved centrally in order to accommodate the Japanese International. Mitoma will not want to sit on the bench. He will only join a club where he is a regular starter.

Bournemouth host Tottenham in the Premier League tonight for what is set to be Antoine Semenyo's final game for the Cherries ahead of his move to Manchester City. The Ghanian winger is scheduled to have his medical in Manchester on Thursday morning, but has agreed to turn out one final time for the South Coast side before he departs. And he will be hoping to pile more misery on opponents Spurs, who have won just two of their last 11 Premier League games.

England and Tottenham forward Jess Naz has suffered an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and will miss the rest of the season. The 25-year-old picked up the injury in Spurs' late win over Aston Villa on Sunday and will require an operation on her right knee.

Chelsea's record-breaking unbeaten run in the Women's Super League was brought to an end with a shock result as Everton won away against the defending champions, who had not lost any of the previous 34 league matches. Everton's 1-0 victory inflicted Sonia Bompastor's first defeat as a WSL manager after a remarkable 18 months in charge, and was Chelsea's first loss in the league since going down 4-3 at Liverpool on 1 May 2024 when Emma Hayes was still at the helm.
