Malo Gusto to Tottenham Hotspur
Quiet since 23 October 2026. Last report: CaughtOffside. Probability when it went quiet: 1%.
Malo Gusto's name has resurfaced as a transfer talking point, with suggestions that Chelsea's resistance to selling him might be softening. Tottenham Hotspur are mentioned as interested parties, alongside Liverpool, and Paris Saint Germain are also linked separately. No bid is on the table, and nothing resembling formal talks has been reported. With the Premier League window shut until January, any movement is purely speculative at this stage. The only source behind this is CaughtOffside, which first reported it on 23 October, describing Chelsea as more open to a sale. No other voice has corroborated the claim. Until a trusted reporter picks it up, this sits as a single thin link rather than a developing story. The chance of this actually happening is slim. Gusto signed fresh terms that run to 2030, so Chelsea have no financial pressure to sell, and nothing suggests they have set a price or invited offers. For a deal to move forward, Chelsea would need to genuinely shift their stance, Tottenham would need to firm up interest with an actual bid, and competition from Liverpool or PSG would need to clarify itself. None of that exists yet, so this remains a longshot. Tottenham's recent transfer business gives some context for what a deal of this size might resemble. They paid €60m for Jan Paul van Hecke in 2026 and €58m for Richarlison in 2022, so a fee near Gusto's €59m value would not look out of place among their typical outlay. The next real signal will be whether Tottenham or Liverpool move from reported interest to an actual approach once the January window opens on 1 Jan
