The conclusion of the January transfer window hardly ends the talk of incomings and outgoings. It is almost the start of the next phase of the conversation.
This is when the talking has to stop and the performing has to take centre stage. Tottenham's transfer dealings picked up towards the end of the transfer window, which also led to an improvement in results.
Arnaut Danjuma and Pedro Porro signed for the club in the final week of the window with the latter joining on transfer deadline day in which turned out be to a dramatic run of events.

Despite the transfer window slamming shut on Tuesday evening, there is still an opportunity for Spurs to sign free agents. Although no new transfers can be registered for contracted players elsewhere, free agents can move clubs at any time of the year.

Isco
The former Malaga and Real Madrid star is 30 now and without a club after leaving Sevilla in December. His move to Union Berlin fell through towards the end of the window, meaning he can now be picked up on a free transfer.
He could still yet be a player to watch at the highest level With his undeniable ball skill and touch, Isco might be able to fit into Antonio Conte's side to add the lack of creativity that's currently missing in the middle of the park.
Sime Vrsaljko
In 2017 he was a sought-after player for several top clubs in the Premier League and was linked with a move to north London. At Atletico Madrid he excelled as a disciplined full-back and went on to play a pivotal role in Croatia's World Cup final run in 2018.
He moved on a series of loans and ended up at Olympiacos before being out of contract last month. With both Matt Doherty and Djed Spence departing on transfer deadline day, he could well be an option to bolster Conte's options, but seems unlikely considering Porro's arrival to the club.
