I Know I'll Get Stick For This...
Person context

- Two years left on Kulusevski's deal. No extension talks.
- You can't go into a season with him and James Maddison as your only two natural 10s — neither has played 90 minutes in over a year.
- Nine teams in Europe. Spurs aren't one. Nine points separated Spurs from European spots last season.
- City lost Pep. Chelsea selling assets. Liverpool with a new manager. The field is wider open than it's been in years.
This window, Spurs need: a keeper, a creative #10, a left winger, and a centre forward. Get those done — cash in on Kulusevski to help fund a long-term Maddison successor — and the 2026-27 title is closer than anyone wants to admit.
Brace yourselves. This is the conversation Spurs fans don't want to have. It's also the one we need to.
