Tottenham's recent forays into the transfer market have been hit and miss, with gems such as Dejan Kulusevski, Rodrigo Bentancur and Cristian Romero becoming big success stories. On the other side of that coin are the likes of Tanguy Ndombele, Sergio Reguilon and Steven Bergwijn, who have failed to leave their mark on the first team.
With the January market now open, there's little room for error as Antonio Conte nears the end of his contract, with it expiring in the summer, with a similar situation for star striker Harry Kane, who is set to be a free agent next summer. To keep both on board, there will have to be a sense of ambition as well as a possible back-to-back top-four finish.
So far, the side sit fifth and are a few points away from being in the driving seat for the Champions League positions. Conte said any transfers will have to be: "Young players, players with not big salaries. We have to sign players, that they can stay in our vision, in the vision of the club."
