Having splashed out huge money on the likes of Richarlison and Yves Bissouma ahead of the new season, the addition of a certain player on a free transfer could prove to be Tottenham's signing of the summer. With his contract at Inter Milan coming to an end, Antonio Conte and Fabio Paratici made their move to lure Ivan Perisic to north London.
A deal that some questioned due to the fact he turns 34 in February, the decision to sign the Croat on a two-year contract has proved to be a masterstroke so far. Perisic has already made quite a name for himself at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and there is certainly more to come from him over the course of this campaign.
Not featuring on the club's pre-season tour of South Korea as he tried to work his way back to fitness from the calf injury he sustained in his final Inter Milan appearance, Perisic initially had to make do with a place on the bench for Tottenham's first two Premier League games. However, he contributed in a massive way in the second of those matches as his stoppage-time corner was converted by Harry Kane to salvage a point against Chelsea.
