Antonio Conte greenlights wing-back transfer
Tottenham manager Antonio Conte has reportedly given the go-ahead for Tottenham to sign Besiktas wing-back Rivdan Yilmaz this summer. Fanatik claim that the north-London club are lining up a move as Conte continues to bolster his side with the Italian giving the deal his seal of approval.
Spurs have been one of the busiest sides in the summer transfer window so far, and they show no signs of slowing down. Richarlison, Fraser Forster, Yves Bissouma and Ivan Perisic have already signed - could Yilmaz be next?

Djed Spence update delivered
Middlesbrough manager Chris Wilder has delivered an update on the future of right-back Djed Spence, with Tottenham eyeing a deal for the defender. Fabio Paratici and Spurs are keen to push through a deal for the talented 21-year-old but agreeing on a transfer fee is proving to be a bit of a stumbling block at present.
"Hopefully, it will come to a quick conclusion because that would help everybody," explained Wilder, as reported by The Northern Echo. "That's the way we'd like it to be, although the situation isn't always straightforward. It is taking its time, but hopefully, it can get sorted. If not, then as I've said all along, Djed comes back to us."
Keeley delighted with move
It has been a busy month for Antonio Conte in the transfer window. Tottenham confirmed on Friday morning the addition of Josh Keeley to the development squad from Irish side St Patrick's Athletic for an undisclosed fee, and he was over the moon to land in
"I'm absolutely over the moon to be signing for such a big team like Tottenham. It's a great achievement for me and my family," said the youngster in an interview with St Patrick's Athletic. "Obviously, it's everyone's dream to get over to England and to do it with such a big team like Tottenham. It feels even better."
