Ange Postecoglou makes his debut in the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium dugout as they face Shakhtar Donetsk in a charity match, aiding Ukraine during the ongoing Russian conflict. The game also provides a chance for Tottenham to mend ties with Shakhtar after the contentious Manor Solomon transfer.

Bayern Munich’s pursuit of Harry Kane, their top target, hit a roadblock with Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy. In Singapore, Kane displayed his prowess, contributing to Spurs’ 5-1 victory against Lion City Sailors. Under Ange Postecoglou’s leadership, this win marked Tottenham’s second pre-season match after a 3-2 loss to West Ham United. Their Thai encounter with Leicester City was postponed due to extreme weather. With two more friendlies scheduled, including the Joan Gamper Trophy final against Barcelona, Spurs kick off their Premier League season against Brentford on August 13. Amid transfer speculation, Kane might stay if no Bayern deal materializes. Young talent Alejo Veliz will soon join, bolstering their attack with Solomon.

Amid Eastern European conflict, FIFA allowed Solomon, once loaned to Fulham, to join Tottenham for free, despite Shakhtar’s objections. CEO Sergei Palkin threatened legal action over Solomon’s return, yet this shouldn’t overshadow the charitable cause as Shakhtar contributes to ‘Shakhtar Social’ for war victims. Despite no Ukrainian Cup or Super Cup, Shakhtar secured their 14th league title. They gained a Champions League spot and already earned four points this season. Tottenham and Shakhtar, who last met in 2008-09’s UEFA Cup, will face off again, recalling the Ukrainian giants’ 2-0 win and a draw that ended Spurs’ European run.
