Tottenham could sign their own Lionel Messi and Neymar as Antonio Conte considers next transfer

The identity of Tottenham's potential seventh signing of this summer's transfer window currently remains largely unknown.

Daniel Levy and Fabio Paratici have certainly been one of the busiest owners and football sporting directors respectively so far in the European landscape as they have backed manager Antonio Conte with six new signings already. Middlesbrough full-back Djed Spence was the latest to arrive and join up with the squad on their pre-season tour of South Korea. So far this summer, all of Fraser Forster, Ivan Perisic, Yves Bissouma, Richarlison, Clement Lenglet and now the 21-year-old will make up the foundation of a very strong Lilywhites squad for 2022/23.

Despite the good start the north Londoners have endured to this summer's transfer window, there is even more scope for further improvement as Conte aims to collate a full squad that could mount a shock title challenge against Liverpool and Man City. To do this, a new attacking midfielder who could play in different formations and positions could be key this summer if both Premier League title favourites for next season were to really notice Tottenham and the threats they could pose to the status quo.
