Tottenham’s summer transfer window so far has seen the club focus on youth.
The club have signed three 18-year-olds this summer, paying £35million to Leeds United for Archie Gray, while Lucas Bergvall’s £8.5million move from Swedish side Djurgarden has been completed and the club have moved to sign Yang Min-Hyuk from South Korean side Gangwon FC.
It is clear that the club are looking to the future with their transfer business this summer after Ange Postecoglou led the club to fifth place in his first season in charge at Spurs last season.

But while three talented teenagers have been snapped up so far this summer, it may mean that opportunities for some of the club’s existing young hopefuls could be limited.
That would appear to be the case for academy graduate Nile John, who is set to leave the club this summer, according to TeamTalk, as Spurs look to cash in on a homegrown player who is now into the final year of his contract, which was only extended last summer.
John made two senior appearances for Spurs in 2021, once as a substitute in the Europa League and one starting in the Europa Conference League. He joined Charlton on loan for the second half of the 2021/22 season, failing to make an appearance, but has been a regular for Tottenham’s U21s side.
The arrival of Gray and Bergvall puts him even further down the midfielder pecking order, with other homegrown talents Alfie Devine, Tyrese Hall and George Abbott also vying for places.
There is no news of where John may be headed, but should Spurs bank a fee for the 21-year-old it would go down as pure profit in the club’s accounts, boosting their PSR standing.
