We're back twice in a matter of days as Tottenham have agreed a deal with Brighton to sign defender Jan Paul van Hecke. The deal is believed to be around £52M and the player has expressed his desire to play under 'father figure' Roberto De Zerbi. The centre-back only wanted to join Tottenham. Spurs' statement of intent appears to be taking shape as Tottenham want to sign Newcastle midfielder Sandro Tonali this summer. The Italy international is a top target for Spurs boss Roberto De Zerbi as he looks to rebuild his squad after helping the club avoid relegation from the Premier League. One of Spurs' top priorities this summer is improving the technical ability of the squad and bringing in a midfielder who can dictate play. The club also remain interested in Manchester City forward Savinho meanwhile Brighton target Luka Vuskovic wants to leave Tottenham permanently. The 19-year-old is not happy at the prospect of being sent out on loan, or a lack of gametime at Spurs following the addition of Marcos Senesi and impending arrival of Jan Paul van Hecke.

Our guest on Episode #79 of the TGG Podcast is Joe Newton. Joe was part of Thomas Frank's inner circle at both Brentford and Tottenham and is a new breed of analyst. After starting as a youth player at Tranmere and Wrexham, he got a degree and Masters in performance analysis and secured a job at the New Saints in Wales.  His big break came when he was appointed first-team analyst at Brentford, where he forged a close relationship with Frank and helped the club gain promotion to the Premier League. After that came a brief and turbulent spell at Tottenham, which ended in the sack in February 2026.  Joe told us about his progression in the game, about what makes Brentford special, why things went wrong at Tottenham and about his special relationship with Frank. In this episode we also have an interview with Adam Ridgewell, who worked for Southampton for five years before becoming Account Manager with Genius Sports. Adam told us how clubs like Brentford are using Genius Sports' tracking data and Performance Studio to gain an edge in the game.

The panel are back on Last Word On Spurs in another busy week around Hotspur Way as Tottenham have signed defender Marcos Senesi on a free transfer following his departure from Bournemouth. The 29-year-old will officially complete his move to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on 1 July, subject to international clearance. Senesi, capped three times by Argentina, decided to leave Bournemouth earlier in the season after rejecting three contract offers from the club. The centre-back - who has also just been included in Argentina's squad for this summer. We also reacted to the news that Tottenham have confirmed that Ben Davies has signed a new contract with the club, while Yves Bissouma is leaving as a free agent. Davies joined Spurs from Swansea City in 2014 and will now extend his stay in north London into a 13th season, having made 363 appearances for the club to date. Only 20 players have played more matches for Tottenham in their history, including Davies' former team-mates Heung-min Son, Hugo Lloris, Harry Kane and Eric Dier. Spurs did not confirm the length of Davies' new deal, but widespread reports on Wednesday said it was a one-year extension. As one player commits there future, one departs as but there was no new deal for Bissouma, who played the full 90 minutes in the Bilbao showpiece. Bissouma made 111 appearances for Spurs after arriving from Brighton in 2022, scoring two goals – both of which came in the Premier League in 2024-25. We reflect on the potential Bissouma had and why that quite never materialised during his time at Spurs. We close on Spurs' pursuit of both Jan Paul Van Hecke and Savinho and whether we feel both deals will eventually be completed.

Joe Hart was England's number one for over a decade, won two Premier Leagues at Manchester City, and was one of the most recognisable goalkeepers of his generation. Then Pep Guardiola arrived - and everything changed.In this conversation with Jake and Damian, Joe speaks with remarkable honesty about the mental block that nearly ended his City career before it peaked, the moment he felt genuinely unbeatable and how quickly that unravelled, and what it was really like inside England's tournament camps when the pressure was at its highest. He also gives his most direct assessment of why England kept falling short at major tournaments - and it's not the answer most people expect.Then comes the harder chapter. The loans, the exits, the moment he genuinely thought professional football was done with him. And finally Celtic, Ange Postecoglou, and an ending so good he admits it scared him.Two sides to Joe Hart: the warrior who needed to be the last line of defence, and the kid from Shrewsbury who never stopped being amazed he got to play.

Alex Iwobi's footballing evolution is a masterclass in versatility, maturity, and resilience.

England finished off their World Cup warmups with a 3-0 win over Costa Rica in Orlando, but only after they'd been made to wait by adverse weather. Declan Rice, Anthony Gordon and Ollie Watkins scored as attention now turns to the game against Croatia next week, as Thomas Tuchel's men look to finally bring football home. Back on domestic soil, one of England's stars is the subject of a mega-money bid from Manchester City. Elliot Anderson is a wanted man, with City reportedly having bid over £100m for the Nottingham Forest midfielder. Despite being no longer a Premier League side, Wolves are making headlines too. They've sacked Rob Edwards just days after he was instrumental in the signings of Kieran Trippier and Raul Jimenez, and are replacing him with Portuguese boss Cesar Peixoto.

Don Harmon of the Mountain Premier League joins the show to talk all things soccer in Colorado, plus a full run down of all the leagues in play across the country!

Vitalii Mykolenko has officially put pen to paper on a new three-year contract extension, committing his future to the Blues until June 2029! While it secures our left-back situation ahead of a massive transfer window, the announcement has sparked a major divide among Evertonians on social media. EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee In this episode of the Royal Blue Podcast, Ian Croll and Gavin Buckland sit down to dissect this early piece of summer business and dive deep into the ultimate Mykolenko debate. Is Mykolenko given a bad rap by Everton fans? We look at his defensive attributes—ranking among the Premier League's top tacklers and interceptors—and ask if the criticism over his attacking output in the final third is justified or completely overblown. Does He Deserve More Respect? Since arriving from Dynamo Kyiv in January 2022, Mykolenko has been a durable, unchallenged regular who put his head down through grueling relegation battles. With 157 appearances under his belt, has he earned more credit than he gets? The Ceiling Debate: Is he good enough to take Everton to the next level? As the club aims to push past mid-table mediocrity and fight for European football, is the Ukrainian a reliable foundation piece, or should the club be aiming for a higher-caliber upgrade?

We held our Forest Focus summer live show at the Trent Navigation with an audience of 200 Nottingham Forest fans as former Reds players James Perch and Kelvin Wilson took to the stage alongside Matt Davies, Greg Mitchell, Michael Temple and Pete Blackburn. Part Two is out tomorrow, but in part one we discussed the season just gone in the Premier League and Europa League before Kelv and Perchy reflected on their careers under former managers including Billy Davies and Gary Megson, what being a player is really like and life after their playing careers. #nffc #nottinghamforest

The traditional The Assistant Professor of Football season round-up is back. I asked guests from this past year, and some from previous years whose clubs had remarkable seasons of one sort or the other how their clubs have fared, what moment stands out, and what song best embodies their club's vibe this past season. They are:Medea Voegeli, professional historian and historian of FC Thun, from episode 76. Thun are the utterly sensational champions of Switzerland this year — after just having been promoted — so Medea has a lot of good vibes to share.Then Paul Reidy, our English correspondent at Rayo Vallecano; that club portrait is episode 46. Rayo made it to the final of the best European club competition outside the Champions League, the Conference League. They lost against Crystal Palace, but this is their greatest success.Another finalist: SC Freiburg, from episode 49. Freiburg made it to the Europa League final. They also lost against an English team, Aston Villa. Patrick Bucher from the club's history working group has a lot of stories to tell from his days at the final in Istanbul.Next up is Alana McDougall, a historian at the University of Guelph in Canada who published a fabulous people's history of Liverpool and joined us in episode 72 — she's back to analyze a rather mixed season for them.Then Stefan Wally, a political scientist and Austria Salzburg aficionado, on that club in the second Austrian league. They earned promotion last year and absolutely held their own — including a derby with the Red Bull farm team that tried to finish them off.And last but not least: two teams who got relegated but also see some hope on the horizon, because their relegation has triggered — or at least coincides with — much-needed changes in ownership and leadership at their respective clubs: West Ham and 1860 Munich.West Ham were relegated from the Premier League, as I'm sure you know. That is my club in England, and Alex — who is hard at work organizing supporters for change and for atmosphere at West Ham — gives us his take. And 1860… well, never a dull day there. The Jordanian investor withheld funds, the club was forced to drop out of the third German league, and it looks like that means — freedom, finally, for 1860. Claus Melchior from 1860's section on club history will give us the download.HELPFUL LINKS FOR THIS EPISODE: Dubioza Kolektiv - I am from Bosnia, Take me to America (new music video, YouTube)NEW: send me a text message!

From the hallowed ranks of the FC Nordsjælland academy to the bright lights of Old Trafford, Patrick Dorgu's rise has been nothing short of meteoric.

Daniel Levy was removed from his position as chairman after nearly 25 years in charge. Frank was spotted drinking from a coffee cup that had Arsenal's badge on it. Frank ended up being sacked the following month and replaced by Igor Tudor, who lasted only 44 days before Roberto De Zerbi took over. Spurs only won three games at home and suffered 17 defeats in total and as De Zerbi secured Tottenham's great escape on the final day of the Premier League season.

Pete and Matt are back for the first Monday debrief of the summer. World Cup is days away, the transfer window is heating up, and neither of them can quite stop thinking about Arsenal long enough to care about England vs Croatia. Here's what's inside:

They were underestimated all season, with underlying data suggesting they were massively overperforming. They were the forgotten story amongst The Spygate scandal too. But Hull City clinched promotion on a scoring hot day at Wembley against Middlesbrough and are now back amongst the Premier League's elite. Hull City Correspondent Danny MacDonald makes his Planet FPL debut and joins James to discuss his journey as a Tigers fan and their story since relegation in 2017. Discussion also features the owner Acun Ilicali, manager Sergej Jakirovic, the style of the team and who from the squad is ready for the Premier League. Spoiler: Signings will be needed.
