Fabrizio Romano drops Tottenham transfer bombshell as deadline day approaches, talks are on.
Tottenham Hotspur are now into the 72 hours of this summer’s transfer market with a few positions which could ideally still do with strengthening.
Ange Postecoglou‘s summer signings have been very particular with the Australian carefully selecting the players which he has brought to north London.
Over the summer, Tottenham have been able to land five signings but two of them include Timo Werner being retained on loan and Yang Min-hyeok who does not arrive until January.
The latest of the arrivals has been Wilson Odobert who impressed Heung-min Son on his Tottenham debut over the weekend against Everton.
But with just a matter of hours now remaining in the market, it could well be a case of Tottenham reacting to any potential late opportunities which present themselves.
With some positions still needing to be strengthened, Fabrizio Romano has shared his understanding on what could happen when it comes to arrivals.
Fabrizio Romano shares exciting Tottenham transfer update
Tottenham have actually made the biggest splash in the transfer market this summer with the signing of Dominic Solanke.
A new backup goalkeeper is being eyed by Tottenham but that deal could now be pushed back until January.
However, money could still be spent on signing some further players to strengthen the squad with a busy schedule ahead.
Speaking to GiveMeSport, Romano has claimed Spurs are still working on something in the background after landing Odobert from Burnley.
“The deal they did with Burnley [for Odobert] was completely silent,” he said.
“So, I think they’re still working on something, and I’m told they’re still working on something, but there is still nothing concrete or close to being completed. But I can confirm Tottenham are still in the market for opportunities.”
Tottenham need strength in depth this season
One thing which Tottenham have done really well this summer is offloading the players who Postecoglou did not intend on using.
There are still a few players who could leave the club with Besiktas eyeing up a deal for Sergio Reguilon over the coming days.
But Spurs could still do with another addition or two before the end of play on Friday to make sure they have enough to see them through until January.
Tottenham’s injury issues last season were well documented and Postecoglou simply cannot deal with a repeat this time around.
Micky van de Ven has already shared an update on his injury scare after Solanke has been ruled out of action following his debut.
The Lilywhites have a much busier schedule this term with Europa League football to be played, so further injury issues will seriously hinder Tottenham’s hopes of achieving something this season.
