Tottenham Hotspur have come flying out of the blocks in this summer’s transfer window as Antonio Conte wastes no time in continuing his rebuild of a squad with whom he achieved a magnificent return to UEFA Champions League football last season.
Ivan Perisic, Fraser Forster and Yves Bissouma have all joined so far this month, and while it has been well reported that Spurs are after Leeds United’s Raphinha, rumours have now emerged that director of football Fabio Paratici is working on a “surprise transfer” behind the scenes.
According to transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano in an interview with Wettfreunde, a central defender who is not widely reported as being on Tottenham ’s radar could yet join the club.
