🚨 If Tottenham Hotspur get relegated, here’s what it would actually happen to the team:
First, nothing happens instantly to contracts. Every player remains tied to the club. Relegation doesn’t cancel deals, they are still legally Spurs players.
However, the big change comes from money and ambition.
Spurs would lose a huge amount of revenue, especially from Premier League TV rights. Because of that, the club would need to reduce spending quickly. This is where player exits begin.
Top players would almost certainly leave. Not because they are forced to, but because:
• They want to keep playing at the highest level
• Other big clubs would come in for them
• Spurs would be open to selling to balance finances
Some players may also have relegation clauses in their contracts. These clauses can:
• Allow them to leave for a lower transfer fee
• Reduce their wages automatically
So even those who stay might earn less.
The squad would then start to change a lot. Spurs would rely more on:
• Younger players
• Squad players who stay
• Loan signings
And this is where it gets even tougher, coming back up is not guaranteed.
Because many of their best players would leave, the overall quality of the squad drops. Even though Spurs are a big club, the Championship is very competitive and physical, and without top talent, promotion becomes much harder.
In short — relegation doesn’t “remove” players, but it triggers a chain reaction:
➡️ Stars leave
➡️ Wages drop
➡️ Squad gets rebuilt
➡️ Promotion becomes more difficult
That’s why relegation is such a big risk, even for top clubs.
