Tottenham set new transfer ‘priority’ as move ‘not on the radar’

Tottenham are already making good progress on their summer transfer plans.

Antonio Conte and Fabio Paritici are working hard to prepare for a season with Champions League football.

And they have already snapped up Yves Bissouma, Fraser Forster and Ivan Perisic as they look to build a squad capable of not only making a splash in UEFA’s premier competition, but also securing another top four finish in the Premier League.

The work behind the scenes is expected to continue for much of the summer, with a number of areas likely to be strengthened.

And with that in mind, we have rounded up all the latest transfer news and rumours surrounding Spurs.

Raphinha and Richarlison update

Tottenham are said to be more concentrated on landing Leeds United star Raphinha over snapping up Everton’s Richarlison.

“It depends on Raphinha, I think. You will not sign both Raphinha and Richarlison, but they negotiate with both of them,” Fabrizio Romano has said.

“As for Raphinha, they are in direct contact with Leeds. For Richarlison, there are no direct talks between Tottenham and Everton just yet. The negotiations for these two deals are still at different stages.”

Leeds are said to want as much as £65million for Raphinha, with Arsenal already having a bid turned down.

Eriksen ruled out

Spurs are said to have completely moved on from Christian Eriksen this summer.

The midfielder was linked with a move back to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but it seems a deal is no longer on the table.

Eriksen is still available for free ahead of his Brentford contract coming to an end at the end of this month.

But according to Football Insider, Tottenham have left the race Conte and Fabrici now concentrating on other targets.

Eriksen is ‘not’ on the club’s ‘radar’, according to the report, and it seems he is much more likely to go elsewhere.
