Tottenham's De Zerbi rebuild continues with three more signings
Roberto De Zerbi has now added Martin Dubravka, Jan Paul van Hecke and Marcos Senesi to a Spurs rebuild that already includes club-record buys Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes.
Martin Dubravka joins on a free from Burnley
Tottenham have added goalkeeper Martin Dubravka on a free transfer after his Burnley contract expired on July 1 — De Zerbi's fourth free-transfer addition of the summer.
Jan Paul van Hecke arrives from Brighton for £52m
The Netherlands defender joins from Brighton in a £52m deal, adding further depth to De Zerbi's rebuilt backline.
Marcos Senesi completes free transfer from Bournemouth
Spurs had an agreement in principle with the Argentine center-back in place while the season was still ongoing; he has now signed on a free transfer as his Bournemouth contract expired.
Sandro Tonali completes £100m move
Tottenham have paid £100m for Newcastle's Sandro Tonali, one of the marquee moves of the summer window.
Mateus Fernandes arrives for club-record £85m
Spurs have paid a club-record £85m for West Ham's Mateus Fernandes, smashing their previous transfer record.
Andy Robertson joins on a free from Liverpool
Tottenham have strengthened at left-back, bringing in Andy Robertson on a free transfer from Liverpool to add Premier League and international experience to the squad.
De Zerbi, appointed in March to steer Spurs away from relegation trouble, has now overseen six signings this summer as he rebuilds the squad from the back up — two club-record fees for Tonali and Fernandes, and free or bargain deals for Robertson, Senesi, Van Hecke and Dubravka.
