Tottenham have already made some quick moves in the transfer market to ensure that Ange Postecoglou has the right tools to work with ahead of the 2023/24 Premier League season. After clinching permanent deals for Dejan Kulusevski, Guglielmo Vicario and James Maddison, Manor Solomon looks set to be the next player to sign on the dotted line in north London.
The addition of Maddison from Leicester City in a £40 million deal is undoubtedly a statement signing and the England international could play a pivotal role in Spurs achieving their ambitions due to what he offers in the final third. As important as Maddison could be to Postecoglou's Tottenham team, former Spurs man Gus Poyet wants to see the Lilywhites strengthen in defence and decide on their preferred backline as he believes that will lead to Maddison and the team playing at their best.
“I think the James Maddison signing is very interesting and it will be important to see if he can adapt,” Poyet told 888sport. “Last season Tottenham didn’t play with a proper number 10, and they played with three in attack, so it will be interesting to see how he adapts to the middle of the pitch.
