Tottenham can hijack Arsenal deal with £17m defender for Antonio Conte amid £100m transfer boost

Tottenham's search to strengthen Antonio Conte's side, ahead of the 2022/23 season, continues. Fabio Paratici has already secured deals for three new arrivals this summer, as Spurs have welcomed Fraser Forster, Ivan Perisic and Yves Bissouma to N17.

It isn't long now until the Lilywhites squad reunite, ahead of a tough pre-season and Conte is likely to want to have as much of his squad by then, as possible. One area in which the 52-year-old could still do with some more options is defence.

Perisic's arrival means more choice on the left flank but there would be no harm in new additions to Tottenham's back line. Cristian Romero, Ben Davies and Eric Dier all produced solid performances, especially in the second half of the season but with the busy fixture schedule next season, depth is required.
