Arsenal suffer double transfer blow as Tottenham announce £150m cash injection

Tottenham are set to hijack Arsenal's move for Youri Tielemans and Djed Spence as Antonio Conte is set to be given a sizable transfer budget this summer.

Spurs pipped their city rivals to fourth spot on the final day of the Premier League campaign with a 5-0 win over Norwich. Qualifying for next season's Champions League was imperative so the club could prove to Conte that the club have lofty ambitions in the coming years with his future in doubt.

It also gives Tottenham a huge financial boost ahead of the transfer window as Spurs announced a cash injection of £150m from the club's majority shareholder, Enic, to help provide "greater financial flexibility and the ability to further invest on and off the pitch." And it's claimed that the Italian has received assurances that the club are ready to invest a significant proportion of that investment on new players, according to ESPN.
