There is just over a week of the summer transfer window remaining, but that does mean there is still time for deals to get over the line. It has already been a busy window for Tottenham, in Antonio Conte's first summer in N17.
The Italian has added six new arrivals to his squad already, with Desinty Udogie also signing, although the 19-year-old has been loaned back to Udinese for the season. There are a number of other Spurs player who have also gone out on loan, with Giovani Lo Celso and Tanguy Ndombele being the latest duo to depart.
Both were part of the quartet who were not involved in Conte's plans for the season and were training away from the first team. The other two players are Harry Winks and Sergio Reguilon.

The former looked likely to make a move to Everton, early on in the window, but links died down and there have not been too many rumours since. Meanwhile Reguilon has been linked with clubs across the world, with Nottingham Forest and Nice reportedly interested.
After Tottenham's latest fixture against Wolves, Conte was asked about the prospect of Bryan Gil leaving and what that would mean for transfers. "I was very clear in the press conference before this game," he admitted. "This squad is this and if someone goes away then another has to come. This has to be very clear for everybody. Otherwise we stay with this squad and we continue our path with these players, this squad.
"But if someone has to go away, along another must come. This is very clear for me, for the club, but we are totally agreed on this aspect."
This seems to clearly outline the Italian's transfer plan for the rest of the window. It is not clear whether this would include Reguilon and Winks, but as they haven't been included in Conte's squad at all this summer, it would seem unlikely.
football.london takes a look at those who are in the Italian's matchday teams and who could still leave and who could replace them.
Bryan Gil
Gil looks the most likely to leave next, with a return to Valencia looking close to completion. The 21-year-old spent the second half of last season on loan with the Spanish club and made 13 La Liga appearances.
The youngster has already shown glimpses of his potential and showed some bright spells of play during pre-season, upon his return to Spurs. A loan move to a Premier League club would have been more beneficial for Gil, to help him to get used to playing in the top flight.
However this does not seem to be the case and Conte will have to hope his move abroad will help him develop into a player who can also slot into the Premier League. If Gil does leave, there are a number of players Tottenham have been linked with, who could replace him.
football.london understands Spurs have considered Daniel James as an option, but have not advanced any interest. Ruslan Malinovskyi doesn't play in the exact same position as the Spaniard, but the attacker could also be an option, if Gil leaves.
Japhet Tanganga
Tanganga is another Tottenham man who has been heavily linked with a move away from N17 this summer. football.london understands that AC Milan are the defenders first choice, but the Italian side want to include an option to buy, whereas Spurs want it to be an obligation and there is also interest from Nottingham Forest.
The 23-year-old is another who has struggled for regular game time since Conte came in and that won't get any easier this season, with the new arrivals. Tanganga is a versatile player, so can adapt to various positions when the Italian needs.
However, when he was given opportunities last season, he failed to impress consistently and hasn't got game time in any of Tottenham's first three fixtures. With Joe Rodon already making a loan move to Rennes, if Tanganga also departs, another defender is something Spurs will definitely want to be on the hunt for.
More recently, the Lilywhites have been linked with Chelsea's Trevoh Chalobah. The 23-year-old has both Premier League and Champions League experience, but is a young player who still has room for development.
The defender made 20 league appearances last season, making five goal contributions. In the first three games of this campaign, Chalobah has had to deal with sitting on the bench, with Thomas Tuchel favouring his other defensive options.
Emerson Royal
The right wing-back situation continues to raise questions. With the arrival of Djed Spence, many fans thought that paved the way for either Royal or Matt Doherty to leave.
However currently Conte has all three wing-backs to choose from, but this has meant that Spence has missed out on the last two matchday squads. The Italian has given Royal the nod in the first three fixtures - a surprise to some.
The Brazilian produced a mixture of performances last season and when fit, Doherty really improved and took well to the position he has previous experience in. Royal did produce a solid second half performance against Southampton, but his last two displays have highlighted his attacking weakness.
It would seem most likely that if any of the three would leave, it would be Royal. Only time will tell if Conte decides to keep all three wing-backs.
According to the 53-year-old's admission, if the Brazilian does leave, he will need to be replaced. Adama Traore was heavily linked with a move to Spurs in January, but instead made the return to Barcelona, for the second half of the season. Now the Spaniard is back with Wolves and the links to the capital have ramped up once again.
With Conte's comments on Saturday, there could still be a number of incomings and outgoings seen in north London, over the next two weeks. Only time will tell but for now, the Italian has to focus on leading his squad to more victories and trying to strengthen them in every way he can.
