Tottenham Hotspur has bolstered its midfield with the signing of 20-year-old Norway international Signe Gaupset. The Brann midfielder has generated significant buzz among football fans, and her inclusion in the Tottenham squad could be a game-changer for the club's push towards European qualification.
Gaupset is widely regarded as one of the world's best young talents, having won the Toppserien Player of the Season award in 2024-25 with Brann. She has also made significant contributions to Norway's national team, netting seven goals in 14 appearances at Euro 2025.
Tottenham manager Martin Ho, who previously managed Gaupset at Brann, confirmed that she is ready for her debut against Leicester City in the Women's Super League this weekend. According to Ho, Gaupset has settled well into the Tottenham squad and is training effectively. He noted that while she brings a high level of quality on the pitch, it's essential for her to adjust to the club's culture away from matches.
Gaupset's versatility as a midfielder makes her an exciting prospect. She frequently operates in central midfield, often as either an eight or ten, but can also play on both wings. Ho described her ability to "break the lines" and "go box-to-box really well", highlighting her intelligence and dedication to the sport.
Gaupset has chosen to join Tottenham over other clubs that expressed interest, largely due to her desire to work with Ho again. Her signing is a significant coup for the club as it aims to compete at the highest level in English women's football.
With Gaupset on board, Spurs are one step closer to achieving European qualification and establishing themselves as a dominant force in the Women's Super League.

I mean, I know she's got skills and all, but 20 years old already? That's kinda young to be making headlines like this, right? I'm not hating on her or anything, it's just that some people might be expecting a bit more from their midfielders. Like, is Tottenham really trying to make a statement about being the best team in England now?

Signing Signe Gaupset is like getting a superpower boost for their midfield. The girl's got skills for days, with that Toppserien award under her belt and 7 goals in 14 games for Norway. It's no wonder Ho wants to work with her again - she's clearly got the magic. And what's interesting is that Gaupset's not just a one-trick pony; she can play all over the place, which makes her super versatile. I think this signing could be the key to Spurs becoming a top team in the Women's Super League. They've gotta give it up for Ho too - bringing someone as talented as Gaupset on board is no easy feat! 
We'll see how it plays out...
about this signing, especially since she played under ho before 
! it's amazing how she's already making waves with her impressive skills on the pitch 
that's some serious talent right there 
. i'm loving the versatility she brings to the midfield, like she can switch between central and wing roles so easily 
. and it's awesome that she chose spurs over other clubs because of ho again 
, proof that loyalty and good vibes are everything in football 
️
what's most impressive is her versatility as a midfielder - can play in multiple positions, break the lines, go box-to-box... that skillset is gold dust! 
and to hear the manager had a hand in developing her before, gives me hope she'll fit right in at Spurs 
she sounds like an absolute beast on the pitch 
he must know how talented she is 
I'm hyped to see Signe Gaupset join Tottenham Hotspur! She's already making waves with Norway's national team at Euro 2025 and winning awards in the Toppserien league. The fact that she chose Tottenham over other clubs because of Ho's coaching style makes me think there's something special about this squad 
. With her versatility as a midfielder, she can fit into any position, which is insane! 
!
And I heard Brann offered her way more than Tottenham did, so yeah, it's all about the Benjamins over here 
... can't wait to see if she's just another player who comes in and doesn't live up to expectations 
. Not saying it won't be exciting to watch her debut, but let's keep things grounded here 
. Bring on Gaupset's debut against Leicester City – I'm loving this! 
And Martin Ho is literally the best manager ever for giving her a second chance... I'm really curious to see how she'll fit in with the team, but from what I've seen so far, I'm totally on board! 
what's up with spanish club barca not signing her though? seems crazy to me that she chose spurs over other top clubs... maybe it's cuz martin ho is like her mentor or something? anyway i'm super hyped for her debut against leicester city this weekend! 
what i love about this move is that she chose Tottenham over other clubs cuz of Ho, shows how much da team believes in her potential 
Their midfield was looking pretty bare lately. It's also cool that she gets to play with Martin Ho again - he must've done something right to keep her in the fold 
. And seven goals in 14 appearances for Norway's national team isn't shabby either... guess they're gonna be a force to be reckoned with this season 
. And I gotta give props to Martin Ho for getting her signed - he must have seen something special in her 
. European qualification is within reach, folks!
