Tottenham Hotspur History

Founded in 1882 as ‘Hotspur FC’, Tottenham have evolved into one of European’s toughest teams with a state-of-the-art stadium which has seen over £1 billion worth of investment. Nicknamed ‘Spurs’, the Premier League outfit have encountered some success in their history – their first FA Cup triumph back in 1901 as a non-league outfit, the only club to do so – and you can find all the latest Tottenham Hotspur news right here.

As a club, Tottenham have collected at least one major trophy in each of the six decades from the 1950s to 2000s – an achievement only matched by Manchester United. Spurs were also the first club in the 20th century to achieve the FA and League Cup double, a feat they accomplished during the 1960/61 campaign.

They have a fierce, long-standing rivalry with Arsenal; the North London derby has produced some exciting moments over the years. When it comes to trophies, Tottenham have won the First Division and Second Division twice, while being successful in the FA Cup with eight trophies and the League Cup with four.

Steve Perryman holds the record for most appearances (854) in a Spurs shirt, while Jimmy Greaves remains the club’s all-time top goalscorer with 266 goals in 380 appearances. Current England and Club captain, Harry Kane is not far off these Tottenham legends however, the forward has scored an incredible 175 goals in just 269 games. Jimmy Greaves’ record will surely be smashed if Kane fulfills the four years left of his contract with the club.

Under Mauricio Pochettino in the 2018/19 campaign, the club came ever-so close to winning the Champions League in what would have been described as a miracle, but defeat to Liverpool in the final means their last honour came in the League Cup back in 2008.

Portuguese manager Jose Mourinho is currently in charge of Spurs; however, he does not face an easy task that’s for sure. Many of his star players have suffered from bad injuries this season, especially for captain Harry Kane. The forward has struggled to find his goal-scoring form this season due to injury, and so has the team, with them currently fighting over a spot in the top four as the Premier League and Champions League are now out of their reach.

Latest signings, Gedson Fernandes, and Steven Bergwijn will hope to live up to expectations when the Premier League returns, as they have shown glimpses of their talent. Spurs are linked to Argentinian Juventus forward, Paulo Dybala, as they look to address their injury crisis and enhance their strike force.
