Fabio Paratici can beat Chelsea to complete £60m Tottenham transfer for player Harry Kane loves

Tottenham will be continuing to look for attacking reinforcements this summer, to give Antonio Conte more options and to compensate for departures. Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski created a threatening front three last season, especially in the second half of the campaign, but Conte will want more strength in depth.

Both Lucas Moura and Steven Bergwijn, who were the other choices in the front line, did make an impact in some games when making an appearance from the bench. But it was not on a consistent enough basis.

Bergwijn expressed his desire to leave earlier this month and although Lucas seems set on staying in N17 for at least another year, the 52-year-old still needs some more attacking players. Gabriel Jesus was linked with a move to Tottenham but football.london understands that Spurs are not planning to make an effort to beat Arsenal to the Brazilian, with Fabio Paratici and Daniel Levy's priorities elsewhere. However the Lilywhites have been linked with the 25-year-old's Man City teammate, Raheem Sterling.
