Tottenham Smash Club Record with £85m Mateus Fernandes Deal
Tottenham Hotspur have secured the club’s record signing with a reported £85 million move for 21-year-old midfielder Mateus Fernandes from West Ham United. The fee eclipses the previous high of £65 million paid for Dominic Solanke in August 2024. Fernandes said he was “very excited” to join a “massive club” and praised the head coach’s vision. “We look at football in the same way – with fight and energy to win every game. I can’t wait to get started and meet the fans,” he added. Spurs, who finished 17th in the Premier League last season, have already brought in Andy Robertson, Marcos Senesi, Jan Paul van Hecke and Martin Dúbravka as they overhaul their squad. Another blockbuster move may follow, with Sandro Tonali reportedly set to arrive for up to £100 million from Newcastle United.
