Tottenham Sell Goalkeeper Keeley, Seek Midfield Reinforcement Amid Transfer Talks

Tottenham Hotspur is actively reshaping its squad ahead of the new season under new manager Thomas Frank, following a disappointing campaign that ended with Europa League success but a low Premier League finish. The club is reportedly interested in signing Bayern Munich's defensive midfielder Joao Palhinha, with Bayern willing to sell him for around £26 million after a challenging season for the player. In terms of departures, Tottenham has sold 22-year-old goalkeeper Josh Keeley to Luton Town for about £1 million after failing to agree on a new contract, including a sell-on clause but no buyback option. Keeley impressed during his loan spell at Leyton Orient, notably scoring a late equalizer in the FA Cup and earning praise from Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola. Additionally, Tottenham faces challenges in securing attacking reinforcements, with a potential move for Nottingham Forest's Morgan Gibbs-White complicated by a high release clause, leading Spurs to consider Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo as an alternative target. These moves reflect Frank's intent to strengthen Tottenham's squad by both adding quality players and managing outgoings to improve the team's competitiveness next season.
