Tottenham news: Jesse Lingard transfer rivals emerge as Spurs target fresh midfield addition

Antonio Conte's Tottenham Hotspur have learned who their rivals are in the race to sign ex-Manchester United ace Jesse Lingard.

The 29-year-old is available on a free transfer this summer after his contract at Old Trafford expired and has been the subject of interest from several Premier League clubs. And Spurs boss Conte is an admirer of Lingard and the club could be set to enter a transfer tug-of-war to land his signature.

It comes as Yves Bissouma's perfect midfield partner has reportedly been identified with Spurs targeting a fresh midfield addition. And after a number of pundits claimed Arsenal's signing of Gabriel Jesus is a better deal than Spurs signing Richarlison, statistics have shown Antonio Conte's side may actually be getting the better player.
