Tottenham ‘working’ to strike agreement as Serie A giants ‘enter talks’ with defender

Tottenham have not been shy in the transfer market so far, already spending significantly to improve ahead of their return to the Champions League.

Spurs have already snapped up Richarlison, Yves Bissouma, Ivan Perisic and Fraser Forster, while Clement Lenglet has joined on loan.

Antonio Conte’s squad already looks significantly stronger, and we still have plenty of the transfer window remaining.

We could see further incomings and outgoings at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

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

Spence latest

Tottenham are said to be confident of pulling off a deal for Middlesbrough star Djed Spence this summer.

According to Evening Standard, the two clubs are still locked in negotiations, with the defender sitting out of Boro’s pre-season clash this weekend.

Meanwhile, journalist Dean Jones has told GiveMeSport: “Something needs to happen very soon.

“Either Boro need to budge on their valuation or Spurs need to give them a take it or leave it offer.

“Tottenham will say we can’t drag this on all summer, we know he wants to come to us, let’s get it done.”

It’s reported the full-back will cost between £15 and £20million.

Tanganga talks

AC Milan are said to be stepping up their pursuit of Tottenham star Japhet Tanganga.

According to talkSPORT, Spurs are prepared to sent the centre-back out on loan this summer, and Sky Italia say Serie A champions AC Milan have already met with Tanganga’s representatives over a possible deal.

Multiple aources have reported similar, but Tanganga is keen to make sure he gets regular game time, wherever he goes.

If he can get that at Milan, he will also be able to play Champions League football, as well as playing in one of the top leagues.
