The Tottenham's transfer market resulted in a reconstruction that exceeds 300 million pounds, but Roberto De Zerbi's team continues without a win in the Premier League. After five matchdays, Spurs have only two points and remain in the relegation zone following a 2-3 loss to Aston Villa.

The outcome against Unai Emery's side confirmed Tottenham's worst league start since the 2008/09 season. The team has suffered three defeats and two draws, having to wait until the fifth matchday to score their first goals of the season.

Tottenham spent over 300 million pounds

The standings contrast with the summer investment. Tottenham brought in 10 players and underwent a renovation estimated at over 300 million pounds by various sources. The Times raises the reconstruction expenditure to around 380 million pounds.

Among the most significant operations are Sandro Tonali, signed for 92.5 million pounds, and Mateus Fernandes for about 85 million. Jan Paul van Hecke arrived for 52 million pounds, while Savinho initially cost 75 million pounds with a further 10 million pounds possible in variables.

Andrew Robertson and Marcos Senesi also came as free agents. Omar Marmoush landed on loan from Manchester City with an obligation to buy next summer, further extending the financial commitment assumed by the club.

The signings have not yet changed the results

The issue lies in the fact that the investment has not translated into points. Tottenham lost at home to Aston Villa after falling behind 0-3, before goals from Conor Gallagher and Van Hecke reduced the gap to the final 2-3.

De Zerbi expressed his dissatisfaction after the match, citing issues of concentration, discipline, and physical condition within the squad. The coach had also admitted days earlier that the team was struggling to adapt so many new additions to their style of play.

The situation is even more significant considering the events of the previous campaign. Spurs ended the 2025/26 Premier League season in 17th place and secured survival on the final matchday, prompting the club to undergo a major squad overhaul.

Tottenham is again looking towards the relegation zone

The departures of past stalwarts like Harry Kane and Son Heung-min gradually changed the team's offensive structure. The club's response has been to invest in players like Tonali, Savinho, Fernandes, or Marmoush, yet the results do not align with the new project.

The next test will come after the international break. Tottenham will visit Manchester United, obligated to seek their first Premier League win. With an investment exceeding 300 million pounds, De Zerbi needs the reconstruction to start reflecting in the standings.
