The ‘bulk’ of Tottenham’s transfer funds will be used on just one signing
– Journalist predicts – The Spurs Web – Tottenham Hotspur Football News
According to Sky Sports reporter Michael Bridge, the bulk of Tottenham’s summer transfer kitty will likely be used to sign a versatile forward.
Who have Tottenham signed so far this summer?
Tottenham have added plenty of young talent to their squad, with the likes of Archie Gray, Lucas Bergvall and Yang Min-hyuk arriving through the door, with the latter set to link up with the squad in January.
However, Ange Postecoglou will still want to add some proven top-class talent to his squad before the start of the new season if he harbours ambitions of competing with the best sides in the Premier League.
Over the last few days, plenty of reports have suggested that the Lilywhites are now considering moves for the likes of Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze and Wolves’ Pedro Neto (Fabrizio Romano – GiveMeSport).
Tottenham want a versatile forward
However, Bridge believes that Postecolgou’s number one priority is to sign a versatile forward, who can operate across the frontline.
The journalist also floated the possibility of Tottenham signing a right-back to replace Emerson Royal but he revealed that the club have not made any concrete efforts to do until now.
Bridge told GiveMeSport: “Tottenham are keen to increase their homegrown quota. There might be potential for looking at a right-back if Emerson Royal was to leave, but that’s not happening at the moment.
“Tottenham’s key target this summer is a versatile forward who can play across the front three. That is where I feel the bulk of the money will be spent now, after the purchases of Bergvall and Archie Gray.”
Spurs Web Opinion
All of these reporters, including the likes of Romano, Gold, Bridge and others, just appear to be making educated guesses.
None of them appear to know who Tottenham’s top targets are, which seems to be the way Spurs like to operate under Johan Lange, preferring to keep things under wraps.
