Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario has been ruled out of the upcoming matches and is set to undergo hernia surgery. 

Gianluca Di Marzio has confirmed that the player will be sidelined for several weeks, and his season might have ended prematurely.

They will be without their best goalkeeper for the remaining matches of the season.

Kinsky to replace Guglielmo Vicario

Antonin Kinsky put on a horror show recently when he was handed an opportunity in the UEFA Champions League. But Tottenham will have to rely on him in the coming matches now. It will be interesting to see if the young goalkeeper can bounce back strongly and help his team secure survival in the top flight.

Meanwhile, the injury below could prove to be costly for the player as well. It will hamper his World Cup preparations, and it remains to be seen whether he can return to action quickly.

Can Spurs beat the drop without Vicario?

It has been a disastrous season for Tottenham, and they will be desperate to survive. A club of their stature should have been fighting for European football and domestic trophies. Instead, they find themselves scrapping for a place in the Premier League next season.

Losing an important player at this stage of the season could prove to be devastating for them. They have already had more than their fair share of injury problems this season.

Vicario has had his fair share of criticism, but the Italian remains the most reliable keeper at the club. His injury will certainly affect Tottenham in the remaining matches of the season.

Tottenham keen on Noah Atubolu

The report claims that clubs like Tottenham Hotspur are interested in securing his signature. It will be interesting to see if the north London club decides to make a move for him. Chelsea were keen on the players as well, but they have been handed a transfer ban.

It is no secret that Tottenham need a quality goalkeeper in the summer. Guglielmo Vicario has been criticised for his inconsistencies, and Tottenham needs an upgrade. The Bundesliga goalkeeper could prove to be an excellent addition for them. The opportunity to play in the Premier League will be exciting for Atubolu, and he will look to make his mark in English football.

Spurs have an advantage in the Atubolu race

Chelsea’s transfer ban will certainly be a huge boost for the north London outfit. They will fancy their chances of winning the race for Atubolu.

The player has previously admitted that he used to watch Chelsea often as a kid, and it is fair to assume that the Blues could have been the favourites to sign him if not for their current transfer predicament. Meanwhile, West Ham United are monitoring his situation as well. It will be interesting to see if they come forward with an offer to sign the player.

Arnaud Kalimuendo set for England return?

They need more cutting-edge in the final third, and Kalimuendo could be a very useful addition.

After a disappointing time with Nottingham Forest, the player will be desperate to prove himself in English football. The opportunity to join Tottenham or Aston Villa will be exciting for him.

Kalimuendo is also a target for West Ham United.

Spurs and Villa could use Kalimuendo

The asking price is affordable for the two Premier League clubs, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up. Aston Villa is pushing for Champions League qualification for the upcoming campaign, and they could be an attractive destination for the French attacker.

On the other hand, Tottenham is fighting for survival in the Premier League. However, they are one of the country’s biggest clubs, and they have an ambitious project. It remains to be seen which of the two clubs can get the deal done.

Spurs have been long-term admirers of Kalimuendo.

“Called for a meeting” – Igor Tudor sack claim made as Tottenham set to hand clear ultimatum

✇CaughtOffside
By:Mehdi Gokal

Igor Tudor is expected to be sacked by Tottenham if the club fails to secure a victory against Nottingham Forest this Sunday.

Despite a mini-revival in performances over the last week, the Spurs hierarchy is reportedly ready to pull the trigger on their second managerial change of the season to ensure Premier League survival.

Insider says Tudor expected to be sacked

The ultimatum comes via prominent insider on X, who revealed on that the Croatian’s tenure is hanging by a thread.

He posted: “Igor Tudor will be called to a meeting if Tottenham lose to Nottingham Forest this weekend. He is expected to be sacked.”

The timing of the report is particularly striking given Tottenham’s slightly improved performance.

After a spirited draw at Anfield, Spurs recorded their first win of 2026 on Wednesday night with a battling 3-2 victory over Atlético Madrid.

While the result wasn’t enough to keep them in the Champions League, it served as a massive moral boost and marked Tudor’s first win since taking charge on February 14.

However, the board is reportedly looking at the cold reality of the Premier League table.

Tottenham currently sit in 16th place, only one point above the relegation zone. With only nine games remaining, the hierarchy feels that the “new manager bounce” has been too slow to arrive, and they cannot afford a slip-up against a direct relegation rival like Forest.

Tottenham will not be afraid of second managerial change

If Tudor is sacked, it would mark a ruthless streak from the Tottenham board.

Having already sacked Thomas Frank earlier this year, the club is reportedly prepared to do whatever it takes to avoid the catastrophic financial and sporting implications of relegation.

Roberto De Zerbi is among those linked with the job with one report stating that Tottenham have already held talks with the former Brighton man.

Glen Hoddle has also offered himself to return to Tottenham to try and save them from relegation.

Sean Dyche is another name, a ‘firefighters’ manager who has good experience in taking over clubs in danger of relegation and helping them survive the drop.

For Igor Tudor, it appears tha Sunday’s clash at the City Ground could be a decisive one.

Spurs keen on Adi Hutter

Hutter could be an interesting choice

Mathys Tel has revealed that a series of “clear-the-air” talks in the dressing room sparked the tactical and emotional shift that led to Tottenham’s spirited, albeit bittersweet, 3-2 victory over Atletico Madrid.

While the result wasn’t enough to overturn a massive first-leg deficit, the win marked a significant turning point for a squad that has spent much of 2026 in a state of freefall.

The young Frenchman, who has become a focal point of the Spurs attack during this turbulent period, insists that the players have finally found the spirit of determination required to fight for the club’s Premier League survival.

Mathys Tel on talks behind the scenes

Speaking after the game, Tel explained that the players recognised a desperate need for better communication.

He said (quotes via The Mirror):

“I think conversation in the dressing room. After every loss we just keep talking to each other and something changed. We are talking because maybe before we didn’t speak enough. But now with the situation we talk more, more, more, and we are more about the details.”

Tel emphasised that the squad has moved past individual frustrations to operate as a singular unit under interim boss Igor Tudor.

“We’re together. We’re just a team now. I can feel it. I trust my teammates, I trust the manager, I trust everybody. If we stick together, we will do it.”

Tottenham still have a mountain to climb

Despite the Champions League exit, the 3-2 win serves as a vital moral boost for a side that had failed to record a single victory in nine previous attempts.

It also represents Igor Tudor’s first win since taking charge, providing him with much-needed leverage as he prepares for a defining week in the dugout.

Spurs currently sit in 16th place, just one point above the relegation zone.

The mountain to climb begins this Sunday against Nottingham Forest in what has been dubbed a relegation six-pointer.

However, the resilience shown at Anfield followed by the high-scoring win against Diego Simeone’s side suggests that Tottenham may finally be waking up.

With senior figures reportedly speaking up more in tactical meetings, the club is hopeful that these details will be the difference between a historic drop and a miraculous escape.
