Tottenham's failure to bring in a new centre-back so far this summer will open up the door for the defenders currently at the club to make their case to Ange Postecoglou. A problem position for the team last campaign and a major reason for their failure to qualify for Europe after conceding 63 goals in 38 Premier League fixtures, it is very much Tottenham's top priority in the transfer market.
football.london understands that Fulham defender Tosin Adarabioyo remains high on the club's list of potential centre-back signings which also includes Edmond Tapsoba and Micky van de Ven. All will be hoping that a new defender or two are in place by the time the team jet off to Australia to begin their pre-season tour, thus giving Postecoglou ample time to work with them ahead of the start of the 2023/24 season.
A position where there needs to be change in order for Tottenham to hit the next level, there are question marks over a handful of centre-backs currently at the club. Opportunities will be there for them in pre-season and a change in management could possibly bring in some from the cold if Postecoglou takes a shine to them.
