Sources indicate that Tottenham have made exploratory enquiries for Liam Delap but are yet to make any significant concrete moves, while other sides are monitoring the situation. Chelsea’s chiefs have decided they are open to Delap’s sale and have set an asking price of at least £40 million in order to recoup their investment and generate a profit on the striker. Sources have suggested clubs could acquire him for closer to £30 million as the transfer window progresses. Delap has publicly committed to staying for at least another season, hoping to impress Alonso and play more for Chelsea. A loan move has been suggested in some quarters, but that is not a preference for Chelsea at this time.

Insider Ben Jacobs revealed on the Last Word on Spurs YouTube channel that a potential transfer of Chelsea's Liam Delap to Tottenham is a possibility. Jacobs is also hearing that Newcastle and Everton are interested, though according to him, any transfer depends on the new Chelsea manager as the player wishes to remain at the club. Recent reports state Chelsea wishes to recover the £30 million fee paid for the player, while some reports from March and April 2026 indicated a higher asking price of approximately £40 million.
