Tottenham's managing director of football Fabio Paratici has been jetting between England and Italy as the summer transfer window really begins to get going.
Paratici, who celebrates his 50th birthday next month, has been busy since the end of the Premier League season, spending three days most weeks working at Hotspur Way and the other four at his Turin base in Italy. His jet-setting style of working was perfectly exemplified on Thursday as football.london understands he took part in some of an all day standard board meeting at Tottenham before leaving it to fly to Milan and speak to various Serie A clubs about potential transfers.
Antonio Conte wants as many new faces as possible through the doors to join his squad ahead of their flight to Korea on July 9 for their tour and matches against a K League All Star team and Sevilla. Paratici has already landed his compatriot a trio of signings for that trip in Yves Bissouma, Ivan Perisic and Fraser Forster with more to come.
