Tottenham No. 2 jersey vacant, Takai Yuki is expected to obtain his favorite jersey number

June 29, London Football Network reported that the 20-year-old central defender Yuki Takai is expected to wear the No. 2 or No. 3 jersey after joining Tottenham.

Yuchi Takai is about to transfer from Kawasaki forward to Tottenham, with a transfer fee of 5 million pounds, which is the highest transfer fee record for Japanese players in the J League. Takai Yukio is expected to become a first-team member under Tottenham's new head coach Frank, not just being trained on loan.

Yuki Takai will be 21 years old in September. Although he is not very old, he has rich experience in the game. He has played for the Japanese national team 4 times and has also made 79 appearances with the Kawasaki Forward. He helped the team win the Japan Super Cup in 2024 and was also named the J League Rookie of the Year.

In addition, Takai Yukita also performed well in the AFC Champions League, including his outstanding performance in the semi-finals against Riyadh with Ronaldo and Mane.

Yuki Takai joins Tottenham next month. If Reguilon leaves the team, his favorite No. 2 jersey (he has been wearing No. 2 jersey in Kawasaki for the past two years) and the No. 3 jersey he wore in the national team (Rguilon's current jersey number in Tottenham) will be vacant.

If Tottenham assigns one of these two numbers to him, it will show the club's trust in him, and after joining Spurs, he will strive to become a Tottenham player in training in the coming months.
