Tottenham’s return to form could hardly have been timed any better, Antonio Conte’s side made it four wins in a row when they thrashed Aston Villa 4-0 on Saturday. The result has put them in pole position to secure fourth place with nearest challengers Arsenal three points adrift, however, they do have a game in hand.
If the Lilywhites do secure a place in next season’s Champions League it will make them a far more attractive proposition to potential signings this summer. And given the remarkable progress made under Conte’s management, the club will be keen not to rest on their laurels as they target success on both the domestic and European front.
Spurs already have the nucleus of a strong starting XI but Conte will want to improve quality and depth in certain areas, one of which is believed to be central midfield. The position of back-up goalkeeper is also an area of concern with Pierluigi Gollini reportedly set to return to Atalanta when his loan deal expires. Ahead of a busy summer in north London, the club have been linked with a trio of names today.
