It may not feel international escapades are dominating the footballing stratosphere at present but clubs are working night and day to identify and secure signings ahead of the 2024/25 campaign.
Tottenham Hotspur, despite having a slow start to the window, have been doing exactly that, with technical director Johan Lange re-signing Timo Werner on loan for the forthcoming year, with a buy option included.
Moreover, Spurs have moved to close in on talented Leeds United star Archie Gray after the 18-year-old’s £35m transfer to Brentford fell through. The Athletic’s David Ornstein has confirmed that discussions are underway and all parties are optimistic that a move will be completed.
