Spurs are also reportedly hot on the trail of Nicolo Zaniolo, though former manager Jose Mourinho may have a thing or two to say about that.

Nicolo Zaniolo

Tottenham had reached an agreement with both Roma and Nicolo Zaniolo over a summer move, only for Jose Mourinho to block the transfer.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Spurs were set to take Zaniolo on loan for the season with an obligation to pay £42.2million next season.

Both Roma's board and then player were keen for the move to happen, only to see Mourinho step in.

La Gazzetta dello Sport add that the move is not dead, though, and Spurs could go back in with an improved loan fee to give Mourinho more cash to spend this summer.

Mystery forward

Tottenham remain in the market for another forward, Sky Sports report.

As it stands, the club are not close to making a new addition in attack with the focus on outgoings.

Antonio Conte is happy with his squad and will look to make a further signing once the squad size has been reduced.
