Tottenham looking to appoint club psychologist to aid relegation battle

Tottenham Hotspur have launched a last-gasp attempt to retain their Premier League status, with the club now on the market for a psychologist.

According to The Telegraph, the North Londoners want someone with plenty of experience to help “heal the minds of their mentally drained players” as their relegation scuffle continues.

Tottenham are facing a real prospect of relegation just one year after winning the Europa League title, and the club’s situation appears to be taking an emotional toll on the players.

Spurs are looking for a psychologist to help rebuild confidence and mental strength within the squad, especially after their painful 2-2 draw against Brighton & Hove Albion.

Roberto De Zerbi’s side came close to clinching their first Premier League victory in 2026 when Brighton visited the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last weekend.

Pedro Porro’s opener was cancelled out by Kaoru Mitoma on the stroke of half-time.

Summer signing Xavi Simons thought he had finally helped to end Tottenham’s 14-game winning drought with a sensational strike in the 77th minute.
