A tumbleweed floats past the gates of White Hart Lane. Silence. The summer transfer window is open for a few more days yet, but the actual season begins in three days time and Tottenham Hotspur have signed nobody. Not even jokes about Harry signing the Russian donkey can bring a smile to the Tottenham fans faces anymore, for some are concerned.
For a team that is supposed to be pushing on into the Champions League this season, you would imagine that they would be knocking on the doors of those big name players. But no. Nothing. Harry Redknapp has already stated that he would like to bring in three ‘special’ players and that he knows who they are….so the only question that remains is, where are they?
What is really going on at White Hart Lane? Is the chairman Daniel Levy reluctant to spend? Has their been a fall out between chairman and manager? Don’t these ‘special players’ want to join? Aren’t Tottenham Hotspur attractive enough? Or is there just not enough money available?
Whatever the reasons, I will refer back to a previous article i wrote on here: Do Tottenham really need to sign any new players? Due to the fans’ reactions to the lack of signings, I’d say yes.
