Tottenham are reportedly planning a bold midfield signing as they look to strengthen their depth ahead of the January transfer window.
According to TransfersSpurs have set their sights on Real Sociedad’s talented young midfielder Luka Sucic.
With several departures in midfield and concerns about injuries already putting pressure on the selection,
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 a cruciate ligament injury has left a significant void, while Yves Bissouma is nearing the end of his contract and Pape Matar Sarr will leave for AFCON commitments in December.
Although Rodrigo Bentancur has committed to a new long-term deal and Lucas Bergvall has moved on, the club appear determined to add another proven midfielder.
The January period is already seen as crucial for maintaining momentum in domestic and European campaigns.
Sucic, the Croatian midfielder, ticks several boxes for Tottenham’s recruitment team. Real Sociedad have reportedly included a €25 million release clause in his contract.
Previously courted by clubs such as Manchester United, Sucic brings passing quality, strength in the middle of the park and intelligence to control the pace of the game.
The move from Spurs could interest Luka Sucic
Although his start to the 2025/26 season has been subdued, with just 121 minutes in four La Liga appearances, his reputation remains high.
Despite Sociedad’s poor season so far and management changes, Sucic has yet to secure a regular starting role under new coach Sergio Francisco.
That could be an opening for Tottenham to step in, especially if Sucic feels his development is better served elsewhere.
Sociedad could oppose the sale amid an already fraught campaign. But financial pressure and activation of the release clause could soften their position.
