Mauricio Pochettino's £7m transfer regret could be Antonio Conte's gain at Tottenham

Tottenham's list of targets for the upcoming transfer window is continuing to grow, as the opening of the window approaches. Spurs are already reportedly close to securing their first two deals of the summer, with Fraser Forster and Ivan Perisic both coming to the end of their contracts at their current clubs.

Antonio Conte's transformation of the Tottenham team, both on and off the pitch, not only helped them end the season on a high but is also likely to hand them a boost in the hunt for new arrivals. The Lilywhites' top-four finish means they will return to Champions League football next season, something that will attract incomings.

The Italian wants at least six new signings this summer, so it is expected to be a busy few months for Fabio Paratici and Tottenham, ahead of the 2022/23 campaign. ENIC's £150million investment is expected to go mostly to backing the 52-year-old, meaning Spurs can go out and spend money on players who will fit Conte's setup.
