Tottenham Hotspur director Fabio Paratici has been backed to secure a "surprise transfer" before the end of the summer window.
The Tottenham transfer guru has already been busy at work after seeing Antonio Conte's side secure Champions League qualification at the end of last season. Spurs have already secured the signings of Ivan Perisic, Fraser Forster and Yves Bissouma, but Conte still craves a new centre-back.
Paratici has been backed to deliver one – although it may not be one of the names that have been commonly linked with a move to Tottenham so far this summer. It comes as Atletico Madrid winger Yannick Carrasco has been linked with a move to the north London side.
