The English Premier League (EPL) is in full swing.
After 10 rounds of the 2023-24 EPL season, Tottenham is at the top of the league with 8 wins and 2 draws. Spurs’ momentum has been so explosive that some are saying they could win the title this season.
Of course, there are experts who disagree.
However, few are shaking their heads at the prospect of Spurs finishing in the top four this season and reaching the UEFA Champions League (UCL) next season.
While there’s still a lot of season left to go, Spurs’ form has virtually guaranteed them a spot in the UCL next season. Spurs are confident, too.
That’s why they’re already preparing for next season’s UCL.
The UCL is Europe’s premier competition.
It’s a different level than the league.
For Tottenham to be competitive in the UCL, they need to upgrade their squad.

That’s why Spurs are planning to bring in new players, and why Spurs are looking to build on their best performance of the season.
It’s the James Maddison effect.
Since joining Spurs from Leicester City this season, Maddison has exploded onto the scene.
He has become a key part of Enze Postecoglou’s attacking game plan, revitalizing the Spurs attack.
With three goals and five assists, she has been a key part of Spurs’ run to the top of the table.
Tottenham are looking to build on their UCL performance and become the next Maddison.
They want a ‘second Maddison effect’.
Spurs want a midfielder like Maddison in their No. 1 position.
The 29-year-old Turkiye international midfielder has played for Inter Milan since 2021 after stints at Hamburg, Leverkusen, and AC Milan.
He has plenty of UCL experience, as Inter Milan reached the UCL final last season.
According to the UK’s Express, “Tottenham are looking to sign another creative midfielder similar to Maddison for next season.
The timing is next summer.
The player Spurs want is Inter Milan’s Chahanolu.
The transfer fee is £43.6 million ($71.8 billion).
Chahanolu is contracted to Inter Milan until 2027,” the report said.
“Tottenham have been top of the league this season.
The signing of Maddison is a big part of that success. Postecoglou is eager to add a top-class playmaker like Maddison.
This is in preparation for the UCL next season, so he needs a UCL spot to sign Chalhanolu.”
Finally, the Express added: “With Maddison firmly established as the best attacking midfielder in the EPL, Spurs are hoping to do the same with Chahanolu.
If Chahanolu joins Tottenham, Spurs will be hoping he has a similar impact to Maddison.”
