Tottenham Hotspur fans are enduring a dismal season under Ange Postecoglou. With the club currently sitting 14th in the Premier League, the pressure is mounting, and questions are being asked of the Australian manager. Reports continue to circulate suggesting that Postecoglou’s job is under serious threat, with the Spurs hierarchy already exploring potential replacements should results fail to improve.
Despite boasting the second-highest goal tally in the Premier League, the Spurs attack has underwhelmed. No single marquee player has stepped up consistently to lead the line, leaving the team overly reliant on fleeting moments rather than sustained quality. With their domestic hopes all but dashed, Tottenham’s attention now turns to the Europa League, where they will face a stern test in the form of Eintracht Frankfurt in the quarter-finals—a tie that could ultimately shape both their season and Postecoglou’s future at the club.
Tottenham Hotspur will not have an easy route to land Liam Delap.
Tottenham could do with a striker like Liam Delap.
Spurs fans will be hoping their star players rise to the occasion during this crucial final stretch of the season. With so much riding on the outcome of their Europa League campaign, performances from key names could make all the difference.
Behind the scenes, chairman Daniel Levy has already begun making early moves in the transfer market, signalling that preparations for next season are well underway. The message from the Tottenham hierarchy is clear—they’re eager to get things back on track quickly and are wasting no time in trying to reshape the squad for a more competitive future.
Tottenham are in the race for Liam Delap
Tottenham Hotspur are looking to bolster their attacking depth. With Richarlison looking to leave the club in the summer, Spurs will only have Dominic Solanke as an out-and-out striker in the squad for next season. Due to this, Daniel Levy is said to be making moves in the market for a new No.9.
As per TBR Football, Ipswich striker Liam Delap is on Tottenham’s radar for next season. The report also suggests that Newcastle United, Chelsea and Liverpool are also in the race for England U-21 international. It is also being said that Delap believes he can make an impact at any club and will be open to a move in the summer.
Tottenham Hotspur will not have an easy route to land Liam Delap.
It was previously reported that Ipswich Town had set a £40 million price tag for the 22-year-old. Manchester City sold Delap to the Tractor Boys in 2024 and they hold a 20% sell-on clause on the prolific striker as well. It is going to be a tight race to get the youngster’s signature in the summer.
High praises for Delap by Alan Shearer
Liam Delap is having a stellar campaign for Ipswich Town. The club are in a relegation battle, but that has not stopped the 22-year-old from scoring and troubling defenders all season. As per Sofascore, Delap has scored 10 goals and provided two assists in just 28 Premier League games this season. That is quite an astonishing feat considering it is his first PL season.
The prolific striker is highly spoken about by legendary players as well. Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer recently spoke on his podcast about the England U-21 international. Talking on The Rest Is Football podcast, Shearer said (as transcribed by TBR Football),
“I think, without a doubt, he’ll be one that – if he stays away from injury and if his career keeps going on the way that he’s going at the minute, he’s in a really struggling side at Ipswich- but he’s one of the standouts in their team. I think he’ll be one, without a doubt, for the future – I’m confident in saying that.”
