Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed their 2026/27 squad under manager Roberto De Zerbi, revealing a blend of home‑grown talent and loaned players ready for the Premier League campaign.
Which players made the final cut?
The club listed 18 defenders, though several carry zero appearances so far. Notable numbers include K. Danso (shirt 18) with 90,010 minutes logged, D. Udogie (13) at 70,010, and C. Romero (14) on loan at Borussia Mönchengladbach with no senior minutes yet. New faces such as P. Porro (23) have already amassed 101,230 minutes in youth competitions, while B. Davies (33) brings 20,000 minutes of experience.
What about the midfield and attack?
Goal.com’s squad page leaves the midfield and attacking sections blank, suggesting the manager is still finalising those areas. However, the absence itself signals potential late‑summer signings or further loan recalls. Fans should watch the transfer window closely; any additions will likely fill the gaps left by the empty columns.
Which players are out on loan?
Two defenders are currently away: K. Takai (14) is gaining Bundesliga experience at Borussia Mönchengladbach, while R. Dragusin (on loan at Fiorentina) is listed with a modest 10,000 minutes. These spells aim to sharpen their tactical awareness before re‑joining the Spurs squad.
How does De Zerbi’s roster shape the season outlook?
With De Zerbi at the helm, the squad’s composition hints at a defensive emphasis. The presence of young full‑backs like J. Byfield (67) and the seasoned centre‑back M. van de Ven (38) offers depth. Yet the missing midfield and forward details raise questions about attacking firepower. If the manager secures a proven striker before the deadline, Tottenham could balance defensive solidity with the goals needed for a top‑half finish.
When can fans expect updates?
Goal.com updates the squad list as contracts are signed and loans end. Expect the next revision by early August, just before the Premier League opener on 12 August 2026. Until then, the current roster provides a snapshot of De Zerbi’s early plans, with plenty of room for strategic tweaks.
