Thursday, July 2, 2026 - Tottenham have completed the club-record signing of Mateus Fernandes from West Ham United.
The fee is understood to be £85m, which has smashed the
club's transfer record of £65m paid for Dominic Solanke from Bournemouth in
August 2024.
Spurs beat off competition from Manchester
United to sign the 21-year-old in an £85 million ($112m) deal that has
smashed the north London club's previous transfer record of £65m paid to
Bournemouth for Dominic Solanke in 2024.
"I'm very excited for this next step. Spurs is a
massive club, and the Head Coach was a key part of why I have decided to
join," Fernandes said in a statement to club media."
"When we spoke, it was very special. We look at
football in the same way - going onto the pitch as a strong team, with fight
and energy, to try and win every game. I can't wait to get started, to meet the
fans, to meet everyone, and give everything for the Club."
Spurs, who finished 17th in the Premier League last season
for the second year in a row, have already signed Andy Robertson, Marcos
Senesi, Jan Paul van Hecke and Martin Dúbravka as they revamp their squad in an
attempt to avoid being dragged into another relegation battle.
