Antonio Conte and Tottenham Hotspur make for strange bedfellows especially when the transfer window comes around.
The Italian has now been at the club more than a year and faces his third transfer window in north London when January rolls around on Sunday. Spurs are looking to make at least two new signings next month and football.london understands that they are looking to add a new attacker and right wing-back to Conte's squad.
