As Mathys Tel joined Spurs on a first loan agreement with an option to complete a permanent transfer for up to \u00a345 million from Bundesliga table-toppers Bayern Munich in the dying hours of deadline day, Spurs were one of the busiest Premier League teams during the winter transfer season.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sportslineupdate.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/17401274026224465457269710012852.jpg?resize=678%2C381&amp;ssl=1\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sportslineupdate.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/17401274026224465457269710012852.jpg?w=739&amp;ssl=1 739w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sportslineupdate.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/17401274026224465457269710012852.jpg?resize=300%2C168&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sportslineupdate.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/17401274026224465457269710012852.jpg?resize=678%2C381&amp;ssl=1 678w\" alt=\"GREAT MOVE: Tottenham willing to Breach a \u00a3135m Word Record Deal as Levy makes his final Decision\u2026see more\" width=\"678\" height=\"381\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>The Frenchman\u2019s arrival followed the lure of Kevin Danso and Antonin Kinsky to Tottenham halfway through the season, with the latter being bound to pay \u00a320.9 million after an agreement with Lens, a Ligue 1 team. Postecoglou is collaborating closely with technical director Johan Lange to find potential new hires. Spurs Aim to Sign Gittens and Dibling Deals As North Londoners look for local talent, the duo is considered an option.<\/p>\n<p>Tottenham have identified Dibling and Gittens as key targets after putting a fresh transfer strategy in place to boost their homegrown quota ahead of next season, according to GMS sources, but there is an awareness that they could face an uphill battle to get both deals over the line when they enter negotiations.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sportslineupdate.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/17401273558438858586652416171980.jpg?resize=678%2C381&amp;ssl=1\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sportslineupdate.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/17401273558438858586652416171980.jpg?w=739&amp;ssl=1 739w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sportslineupdate.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/17401273558438858586652416171980.jpg?resize=300%2C168&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sportslineupdate.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/17401273558438858586652416171980.jpg?resize=678%2C381&amp;ssl=1 678w\" alt=\"GREAT MOVE: Tottenham willing to Breach a \u00a3135m Word Record Deal as Levy makes his final Decision\u2026see more\" width=\"678\" height=\"381\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>The south coast team decided they were unwilling to entertain bids that fell below \u00a355 million during the winter window because they were desperate to keep the 19-year-old wide forward on board, even though Spurs could profit if Southampton is relegated to the Championship as they pursue Dibling. According to GMS sources, Tottenham nearly reached a breakthrough in their January agreement bid before determining that Saints\u2019 demands were unachievable and that there was insufficient assurance that he intended to complete a mid-season switch. Gittens would also be a costly acquisition.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sportslineupdate.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/17401273396223827581104462891075.jpg?resize=678%2C381&amp;ssl=1\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sportslineupdate.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/17401273396223827581104462891075.jpg?w=739&amp;ssl=1 739w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sportslineupdate.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/17401273396223827581104462891075.jpg?resize=300%2C168&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sportslineupdate.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/17401273396223827581104462891075.jpg?resize=678%2C381&amp;ssl=1 678w\" alt=\"GREAT MOVE: Tottenham willing to Breach a \u00a3135m Word Record Deal as Levy makes his final Decision\u2026see more\" width=\"678\" height=\"381\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>After putting himself at the forefront of Borussia Dortmund\u2019s plans during a challenging season, the England under-21 international has an \u00a380 million price tag going into the summer.
