      Every Premier League squad’s value revealed with Arsenal biggest winners and Man Utd’s transfer failures highlighted

      by

      ARSENAL have increased the value of their squad more than any other Premier League club.Mikel Arteta’s side narrowly missed out on the title last season, falling away towards the end of the campaign as Manchester City clinched a fifth crown in six years.

      But it should not go unnoticed how much the Spaniard has improved his Gunners side – who finished fifth in 2021/22.
      And that has been shown through stats provided by Transfermarkt.
      Arsenal’s squad has cost £572million to assemble, with their current market value standing at £915m.
      That is an increase of £343m – £100m more than any other side in the division.

      How each Premier League team’s squad has changed in value
      Liverpool and Man City have also seen their squads improve in value since they purchased their players – by £154m and £150m respectively – with Pep Guardiola the only head coach boasting a set of players valued in excess of £1bn.
      Tottenham can also say they have marginally increased their squad’s worth by £43m.
      But at the other end of the scale come Chelsea and Manchester United.
      Todd Boehly’s £600m cash splash since arriving at Stamford Bridge 12 months ago has done little to improve the squad.

      And it has seen them drop to the bottom of the table when it comes to the value of their players compared to how much they arrived for.
      The West London club have spent £880m on their star-studded roster – more than any other team – with their value standing at £756m.
      That sees them pip Man Utd to the unwanted 20th place with a net loss of £-124m.
      Erik ten Hag’s men also hold a negative value of their squad at £-115m.
      Chelsea and United are two of just four clubs with a negative transfer value – along with Sheffield United and Wolves.
      Meanwhile, the other big winners from the list are Brighton – who hold a £243m squad value increase having developed the likes of Evan Ferguson, Moises Caicedo, Julio Enciso, Pervis Estupinan, Kaoru Mitoma and Solly March.
      Brentford, Aston Villa, Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest have also increased their squad’s value by between £81m and £179m. More

      by

      Kane has been the subject of two bids from Bayern, with Spurs rejecting an initial £56million bid and the German club preparing a £68m follow-up offer.
      But, according to French outlet PSG Community, the French giants are now entering the race to sign the England captain.
      They report that both manager Luis Enrique’s and owner Nasser Al-Khelaifi’s priority is to sign a statement number nine and want to conclude a deal for Kane swiftly.
      Khelaifi has reportedly held talks with Kane’s representatives and the club are prepared to offer Kane a five year deal worth around £260,000-a-week.

      The outlet claim Kane’s brother and agent, Charlie, has already held talks with Al-Khelaifi in Paris.
      Kane only has one year on his Spurs deal and supremo Daniel Levy does not want to sell to an English club.
      The Parisians are reportedly willing to include midfielder Fabian Ruiz in the deal – with Ange Postecoglou on the lookout for a new midfielder this summer.
      PSG are in the market for a new forward with Kylian Mbappe being unsettled and looking for a move away.

      Reports emerged in L’Equipe that a number of players have complained to Khelaifi over the Mbappe’s conduct so far this summer.
      The forward labelled the club a “divisive” one that “attracts gossip” during an off-season interview.
      Al-Khelaifi reportedly shares in the players frustrations and has set a July 31 deadline for Mbappe to decide whether he will leave PSG this summer or stay at the club.
      It is unlikely that any club will land Harry Kane below £100m this summer with Spurs chairman Levy remaining steadfast in his asking price. More

      Perisic is reportedly ready to rip up his Spurs contract a year early to complete the free transfer.
      As a result, Ange Postecoglou is now looking for a replacement as he continues his Tottenham rebuild.
      According to FootballTransfers, Spurs are monitoring Chelsea’s Marc Cucurella as a potential replacement.
      Chelsea are keen to sell the Spaniard this summer, although their asking price is not known.
      READ MORE ON FOOTBALL
      The report adds that Postecoglou wants to sign Cucurella and play him as an inverted full-back in his Spurs system.
      Cucurella only joined Chelsea last year and still has five years remaining on his contract at Stamford Bridge.
      However, he endured a difficult campaign in West London, registering two assists in 33 appearances.
      His future at the club has been in doubt since the end of last season, with Newcastle United previously linked with the 24-year-old.

      Postecoglou is keen to overhaul his squad after replacing Antonio Conte in the Spurs dugout.
      The Australian reportedly wants to offload at least 10 players, with Harry Winks and Lucas Moura already leaving the club.
      Meanwhile, both James Maddison and Guglielmo Vicario have arrived at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium so far in the transfer window.

      Harry Kane ‘meets Tuchel at his London home’ as Bayern Munich transfer target says ‘I want to win Champions League’

      by

      BAYERN MUNICH manager Thomas Tuchel has met with Harry Kane in London to discuss a stunning transfer, reports in Germany say. The England captain has just 12 months left on his current Tottenham contract, fuelling speculation he could be sold this season.

      And Bayern were the first to bid when the summer window opened but their offer of £60.2million plus add-ons was rejected.
      The German champions are set to go in again with a second improved package.
      And according to BILD, Bayern boss Tuchel even visited Kane’s home in the capital to discuss a move.
      It is added the Tottenham legend told Tuchel it would appeal to him to win with Bayern the Champions League.

      Kane lives in a £17million home with his wife Katie and three children Ivy, Vivienne Jane and Louis.
      The mansion includes an indoor gym and seven bedrooms with Spurs memorabilia everywhere.

      But his 14-year Tottenham love affair could come to an end as the star striker looks to win his first piece of silverware.
      Manchester United have strongly been linked with Kane but no official offer has come through.

      Chelsea are now managed by Mauricio Pochettino, who enjoyed an incredible relationship with the forward during his time in North London.
      But Spurs chairman Daniel Levy’s strained and storied relationship with the Blues makes a deal incredibly unlikely.
      It gives Bayern a clear path to signing Kane as they look to find a replacement for Robert Lewandowski.
      Lewandowski left for Barcelona in 2022 after eight years in Munich, where he won EIGHT league titles and the Champions League.
      Bayern’s top scorer last season was winger Serge Gnabry, followed by Jamal Musiala.
      And despite still having Thomas Muller and ex-Liverpool wideman Sadio Mane, they are without a recognised No9.
      That has led the Bundesliga kings to make Kane their No1 target this summer.

      But her latest Instagram post reflects that she is first and foremost a footballer – and has hit back at people criticising her looks on Instagram.
      Howell shared a couple of bare-faced selfies alongside a very open caption about dealing with trolls online.
      She wrote: “So I am trying to be more real with you guys… and let you see me for who I really am and not just through a picture.
      “Yes I have had filler, that’s a given but I done that because I wanted to. And yes I get my eyelashes done, but so what…

      “I had comments of people saying they could eat on my chin, or that I’m narcissist because I wore Nivea lip balm in a football game and they thought it was red lipstick🤣.
      “FOR ANYONE that truly knows me would know I live and breathe football, I could tell you teams in SCEFL league let alone league 1 and 2… I could tell you the history of Tottenham not winning a poxy trophy… 🤣.
      “However, I used to say it never got to me and I’m thick skinned, I am for sure.. but when you’re having a bad day (which is only human) and you go on social media, and see things as such you just start doubting yourself.
      “I’ve changed so much about me at times because I had a bad day saw a comment and it got in my head but I’ve come to realise that no matter what I do or say someone is going to dislike it and that’s ok.

      “I do get a lot of lovely comments also which I am beyond grateful for.
      “All I’m asking is think about what you say before you say it… It’s ok not to like what I do, wear, look or say but I am still a human being… Thank you 💜”.
      Howell is a massive Spurs fan as well as being a semi-professional footballer and has shared snaps from the Tottenham Hotspur stadium in the past.
      A number of fans were quick to post supportive messages in Howell’s comment section.
      One fan wrote: “Gabby, you are a beautiful young woman and a fantastic football player, that’s all you need to know, ignore the haters and concentrate on the people that really know you.”
      Another added: “These people should see some of the last ditch tackles and that back heel goal line clearance !!! X”.
      While a third wrote: “they wouldn’t know about your footballing life. you absolute baller😅😍”.
      A fellow Spurs fan jokingly responded to Gabby’s quip that Spurs don’t win trophies and wrote: “Seen Spurs win plenty but then I am old 😭”

      Big money Tottenham signing could leave without playing a GAME as Postecoglou eyes huge system change

      by

      ANGE POSTECOGLOU looks set to switch Spurs’ defence from five at the back to four next season.Tottenham played with three centre-backs and two wing-backs under Antonio Conte last term.
      Destiny Udogie could leave Spurs without playing a single game
      But it looks like that may not be the case under the new boss after a suggestion from Destiny Udogie’s agent.
      Stefano Antonelli, the representative of the left wing-back told Sky Sport Italia: “Udogie’s situation is clear. He is a Tottenham player and we had contact over the last few days because the coach will play 4-3-3, rather than 3-5-2.”
      Udogie, 20, joined Spurs for £15million from Udinese last summer before being farmed back to the Serie A side.
      He is more a wing-back than a full-back, raising questions of where he fits in a new system.

      But Antonelli added: “Postecoglou is absolutely convinced that Udogie will have space to play.
      “But Italian clubs are calling as some feel he needs another step before making a move, perhaps to a top club like Juve, Milan or Inter.
      “Tottenham asked us to confirm the plan, which is to go on tour in Thailand.
      “They guarantee his importance and we will evaluate — but he is a Tottenham player.”

      Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg lined up for stunning transfer to Spanish giants with Spurs future plunged into doubt

      by

      ATLETICO MADRID are keen on Tottenham’s Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.SunSport revealed earlier this month that the Dane’s future in North London is looking uncertain as he is not a natural fit in the free-flowing system of new boss Ange Postecoglou.

      Spurs are by no means desperate to sell him as he is a model pro but would be open to letting him go next month.
      A number of clubs have been weighing up a move – with Spanish giants Atletico among them.
      Though SunSport understands there has been no contact yet between the two clubs.
      Hojbjerg, 27, has racked up 145 appearances for Spurs since arriving from Southampton for £15million in 2020.

      He was a favourite of pragmatic bosses Jose Mourinho, Nuno Espirito Santo and Antonio Conte.
      Yet it is questionable if he would start in the attack-minded Postecoglou’s side, which has just been bolstered by the arrival of James Maddison for £40m plus add-ons.
      Spurs, who have already added goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario for £16m from Empoli, are looking at strengthening at centre-back now.
      Bayer Leverkusen’s Edmond Tapsoba, Fulham’s Tosin Adarabioyo and Wolfsburg’s Micky van de Ven – dubbed the quickest central defender in the Bundesliga – are all on their radar.

      Now Bayern are ready to test Tottenham’s resolve with an £80million bid after seeing a previous offer rejected.
      SunSport understands Daniel Levy will remain stubborn in negotiations but that has not deterred Bayern’s advances.
      And according to German journalist Christian Falk the Bundesliga champions are confident of striking a deal due to an alleged agreement Kane has with Levy.
      Bayern are even said to be prepared to wait until when next summer when Kane will be out of contract and available on a free transfer.

      Falk, who writes for Bild, told BBC 5 Live: “Thomas Tuchel is working like a manager in England so can decide who is coming and who is not and there have been talks with Kane’s family.
      “Bayern Munich would not have made an offer if they weren’t sure that Harry Kane would go. First step was clearing the detail with Kane’s family and then making the offer.

      “The point is that Bayern are in another league. Kane has a gentleman’s agreement with Daniel Levy that he is allowed to go to another league if there is another offer that he is really interested in.
      “Now, yes, Harry Kane wants the move because you know the thing about Tottenham and titles. If you go to Bayern Munich, it’s a title guaranteed and this is the main interest for Kane at the moment.

      “If he won’t move this summer, then they will wait. Tottenham have to decide if they want to get €80m, or even €90m, but next year there is no money for Harry Kane.”
      Privately, Levy has not given up hope of convincing Kane to pen a new deal in North London.
      And the club insist no bid has been lodged for their star man.
      Real Madrid had been keen but have reportedly cooled their interest.
      Manchester United have also been linked with Kane but didn’t hold out much hope that the signing was possible. More
