Tottenham Hotspur have paid approximately £13.9million in agents' fees over the past 12 months, the FA have confirmed. As part of their annual review into how much clubs elect to pay agents and intermediaries, the governing body have revealed how much each club in England's top five divisions have paid.
Fees can be racked up for a variety of services including transfer negotiations and contract agreements, although that is not exhaustive. With Spurs having been busy on both the incomings and outgoings front over the past year, they have once again managed to rack-up a considerable bill.
According to the FA, the north-Londoners have paid £13.9million since February 2021 - an amount that has likely been increased due to the number of transfers completed at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The signings of Emerson Royal, Cristian Romero, Bryan Gil and Rodrigo Bentancur - among others - have all contributed.

Whilst Spurs' pay-out is considerable - and contributes to the overall £272million paid by all of the clubs currently in the Premier League - it is still some way below the highest figures in the division. Current champions Manchester City possess the highest fees having paid out slightly over £35million over the past 12 months, with the likes of city neighbours Manchester United not too far behind
On the other hand, there are also clubs that have not got anywhere near to those figures. London rivals Brentford in particular have only paid just under £3.5million in agents’ fees over the past year - an amount that is lower than a number of clubs currently plying their trade in the Championship.
