Tottenham have decided to take off in an attempt to restart their season. After a particularly complicated start to the year, Spurs will fly to Marbella, in the south of Spain, after their meeting against Manchester United on Saturday. Currently bottom of the Premier League, the team led by Roberto De Zerbi has still not won a single match after five days, with only two small points on the clock. The Italian technician hopes to take advantage of this several-day training course to remobilize his troops and best prepare for the reception in Coventry, scheduled for the following Monday. A strategy already adopted several times during his time on the OM bench.
This choice remains unusual at this time of the season, just a few days after the international break, while English clubs generally favor training in the sun during the winter. With temperatures predicted to be around 25°C in Andalusia, De Zerbi also intends to take advantage of this stay to accelerate the integration of its new recruits. Tottenham invested more than 250 million euros this summer to attract ten players, including Savio, Tosin Adarabioyo, Mykhaylo Mudryk and Omar Marmoush, who arrived in the last week of the transfer window. A busy schedule and a prolonged international break did not allow this profoundly reorganized group to quickly find its automatisms. This gathering could be a valuable opportunity to unite the squad before the rest of the season.
