Tottenham have a fourth new signing nobody has noticed as Ange Postecoglou saves Spurs millions
Tottenham completed transfers to sign Antonin Kinsky, Kevin Danso and Mathys Tel during the winter transfer window but already added one new player to the squad
It took until February for Tottenham Hotspur to finally sign an outfield player during the winter transfer window, as four weeks separated their first and second signings of the year, with Antonin Kinsky and Kevin Danso joining almost a month apart.
Less than 48 hours after doubling their recruits, Mathys Tel made it three on deadline day. Spurs announced the player’s arrival on loan 10 minutes after the 11pm deadline passed.
All three are available to play against Liverpool in the second leg of Tottenham’s League Cup semi-final, with Kinsky debuting during the first leg. However, the goalkeeper was not the only fresh face in the squad for that game in early January.
Mikey Moore notably returned to the substitutes bench for that match, two months after his last involvement in a matchday squad. A virus kept the 17-year-old sidelined for the rest of November and December.
After that return to the squad, Moore started the FA Cup third-round tie away to Tamworth, playing two-thirds of the game before being replaced by Dominic Solanke. Then he was back on the bench and an unused substitute for the midweek north London derby three days later.
However, that is the last time Moore has not featured in a Spurs game. He came on for Pape Matar Sarr at Goodison Park midway through the second half against Everton, soon after which Dejan Kulusevski scored, and the teenager then assisted Richarlison ‘s goal in added time.
Moore made a similar impact as a substitute away to Hoffenheim in the Europa League, this time replacing Richarlison and setting up Son Heung-Min for what proved to be the winner.
