Tottenham ready to turn to La Liga midfielder as a statement signing in January

"Tottenham are reportedly planning a bold midfield signing as they seek to bolster depth ahead of the January transfer window. According to Fichajes, Spurs have set their sights on Luka Sucic, the talented young midfielder of Real Sociedad. With several midfield departures and injury concerns already putting strain on the squad, Tottenham see Sucic as a potential solution, and could move early to secure his services."

"Tottenham have been impressive this season Thomas Frank's strong start in charge has masked underlying vulnerabilities in Tottenham's squad. The loss of James Maddison to an ACL injury has left a significant void, while Yves Bissouma is approaching the end of his contract, and Pape Matar Sarr is due to depart for AFCON commitments in December. Even though Rodrigo Bentancur has committed to a new long-term deal and Lucas Bergvall has stepped up, the club appear determined to add another proven midfielder."

"Sucic, the Croatian midfielder, ticks several boxes for Tottenham's recruitment team. Real Sociedad reportedly inserted a 25 million release clause into his contract. Previously courted by clubs including Manchester United, Sucic brings passing quality, strength in the middle of the park and intelligence to control the tempo of the game. Although his start to the 2025/26 season has been muted, with just 121 minutes across four La Liga appearances, his reputation remains high."

Tottenham aim to bolster midfield depth ahead of the January transfer window. James Maddison is sidelined by an ACL injury, Yves Bissouma is approaching the end of his contract, and Pape Matar Sarr will depart for AFCON in December. Rodrigo Bentancur has committed to a long-term deal and Lucas Bergvall has risen to the challenge, yet the club still seeks another proven midfielder. Real Sociedad midfielder Luka Sucic is a reported target, reportedly carrying a €25 million release clause and having attracted interest from clubs including Manchester United. Sucic offers passing quality, physicality, and tempo control, though his early 2025/26 minutes have been limited.
