Daniel Levy's cryptic comment as transfer decision could boost Tottenham, Matt Doherty eyed

Here is your Tottenham Hotspur digest for Wednesday, August 26.

Levy's cryptic comment

football.london was given an early glimpse at the All or Nothing: Tottenham Hotspur series, set to be released by Amazon on Monday.

After watching the first three episodes, there were plenty of things to be taken away - including one cryptic comment made by Daniel Levy.

In a rather dismissive takedown of other managers, Levy opened up on the appointment of Jose Mourinho, arguing: "There are two top, top coaches in the world.

"One is at another club in the Premier League, the other is Jose."

It's left to the imagination who the other coach is.

Read other things learnt during the first three episodes.

The transfer decision that could make Spurs flourish

It's now just over two weeks since Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg signed on at Tottenham Hotspur.

Whilst perhaps not as eye-catching a deal as the likes of Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner at Chelsea, the midfielder has already won many fans over at Spurs.

His debut against Ipswich Town on Saturday proved to be an impressive performance in the 3-0 win.

Starting in a midfield two, Hojbjerg played a key role in Son Heung-Min's first goal of the afternoon.

Read more analysis of Hojbjerg's performance.

Right-back identified

football.london understands that Spurs have identified Matt Doherty as a player to target this summer.

The Wolves right-back impressed in his side's run to the Europa League quarter-finals and Jose Mourinho is understood to be a big fan of the 28-year-old.

An Ireland international, Doherty can also feature at wing-back, right midfielder and a left-back. Read more on the new target.
