The January transfer window could hand Tottenham a much needed boost to their squad for the rest of the Premier League campaign after a rocky few months. Antonio Conte's men started the season in ideal form, but a habit of conceding the first goal and dropping points has crept in.
It has seen the side initially dubbed as a potential outside shout for the title race drop into the top four battle once again, sitting fifth and five points off of Manchester United in fourth. Maintaining Champions League football would likely be a huge part of Antonio Conte's project as the funds brought in would allow for further reinvestment.
But to reach that he may need more money put in to achieve that feat for this season, with not much activity happening so far in the window. However, that could soon explode into life as the Daily Mail reports that Spurs are set to open talks with Sporting CP over a potential return for a star forward.
