Tottenham Hotspur are preparing for a major squad rebuild following a disappointing 2025/26 domestic campaign, which has left them battling in a tense three-way relegation fight alongside West Ham United, Nottingham Forest, and Leeds United.
With the threat of relegation looming, Spurs risk losing key players if they fail to secure their Premier League status, making survival crucial for the club’s stability and future plans. The absence of European football next season would also significantly reduce their financial power, forcing Tottenham to operate more carefully in the transfer market.
As a result, the club is expected to focus on cost-effective signings, with reports from Sports Boom claiming Tottenham have identified Benjamin Nygren of Celtic F.C. as a key summer target.
Nygren has enjoyed an impressive season, registering 19 goals and eight assists across all competitions, standing out despite playing in a Celtic side that has struggled for consistency. His performances have reportedly caught the attention of Tottenham scouts, who view him as a strong and affordable option.
The report also states that Tottenham could face competition from other Premier League clubs for his signature, as his value and form have made him an attractive target ahead of the transfer window.
Celtic are said to be open to selling the midfielder if a significant offer arrives, with his valuation believed to be around £26 million. Nygren currently earns approximately £20,000 per week, and Tottenham are reportedly considering a substantial salary increase to secure his services.
