Spurs Announce the Arrival of Antonin Kinsky
Tottenham Hotspur have officially announced the signing of Antonin Kinsky, a 21-year-old goalkeeper from Slavia Prague, in a deal reportedly worth over £10m.
Kinsky, who was Slavia Prague’s first-choice shot-stopper, flew to London for a medical on Saturday. The deal was finalized and revealed via the club’s official website on Sunday morning.
Club Statement and Contract Details
Tottenham’s official statement read:
“We are delighted to announce the signing of Antonin Kinsky from SK Slavia Prague, subject to international clearance and work permit. The 21-year-old goalkeeper has agreed a deal that will run until 2031 and will wear the number 31 shirt.”
While no official transfer fee was disclosed, Fabrizio Romano reported that the figure exceeds £10m.
Immediate Reinforcements for Tottenham’s Goalkeeping Crisis
Tottenham have been struggling with goalkeeping options due to injuries and illness. First-choice goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario is a long-term absentee, while illness sidelined Fraser Forster, forcing third-choice Brandon Austin to make his debut in the 2-1 defeat against Newcastle United.
Kinsky could make his debut as early as the Carabao Cup semi-final against Liverpool on Wednesday, provided all necessary documentation is processed in time.
Kinsky’s Potential Impact
Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou will hope that Kinsky can provide much-needed stability between the posts as Spurs aim to reverse their poor home form. With a contract lasting until 2031, the club clearly sees the Czech international as a long-term solution.
