com/d3zfCjSqXU — Tottenham Hotspur Women (@SpursWomen) April 30, 2026 When Tottenham signed Beth England in January 2023, it was a massive statement of intent for a club that had up to that point never seemed to find its feet in the WSL. This was a major, major signing at the time — Spurs plonked down £250k to purchase Beth from Chelsea, a pittance compared to the transfer fees in the men’s game, but a signing that was at the time the WSL inter-league record transfer fee. Spurs hoped Beth would kick-start the team into greater relevance in the league, and Spurs fans hoped this was just the beginning of what would be a massive investment in the women’s team.
