Tottenham Signs Goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky in January Transfer
Tottenham Hotspur has signed Antonin Kinsky from Slavia Prague on a seven-year deal, filling the gap left by injured goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario.
Tottenham Hotspur has made its first move in the January transfer window, securing the services of Czech goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky from Slavia Prague. The 21-year-old has signed a seven-year contract with the Premier League club, a deal set to run until 2031. Kinsky will wear the number 31 jersey for Spurs.
Addressing an Urgent Need
Tottenham acted swiftly after their first-choice goalkeeper, Guglielmo Vicario, sustained a season-ending ankle injury during their 4-0 victory over Manchester City. The club confirmed Kinsky's signing in an official statement, stating, "We are delighted to announce the signing of Antonin Kinsky from Slavia Prague, subject to international clearance and a work permit."
A Rising Star in Czech Football
Kinsky, born and raised in Prague, began his football journey with local clubs before joining Slavia Prague in 2021. Over the past seasons, he has honed his skills through loan spells, including stints at MFK Vyskov and FK Pardubice. In the 2024-2025 season, Kinsky returned to Slavia Prague, making 29 appearances across all competitions and achieving 14 clean sheets.
International Experience
The young goalkeeper has represented the Czech Republic at various youth levels, from U15 to U21. His performances earned him a call-up to the senior national team for UEFA Nations League matches in late 2024, further solidifying his reputation as a top emerging talent.
Tottenham’s Long-Term Vision
Tottenham’s decision to secure Kinsky on a long-term deal highlights the club’s commitment to nurturing young talent while addressing immediate squad needs. Manager Ange Postecoglou expressed confidence in Kinsky's potential to thrive in the Premier League, noting his technical abilities, composure, and leadership qualities.
Looking Ahead
Kinsky’s arrival provides Tottenham with a reliable option in goal as they aim to maintain their strong position in the Premier League and compete in domestic and European competitions. Fans and analysts alike are eager to see how the young goalkeeper adapts to the challenges of English football and contributes to Spurs' ambitions this season.
