Journalist reveals whether Spurs are likely to make third signing this January

Sky Sports journalist Lyall Thomas has revealed there are not expected to be any more new arrivals at Tottenham this window after Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur.

Kulusevseki is thought to have already signed for Spurs, with only an official announcement impending from the club while Bentacour is also expected to join the Swede in North London (Fabrizio Romano).

Some sources have suggested that Tottenham are considering a deadline day move for Brighton midfielder Yves Bissouma and Nottingham Forest right-back Djed Spence (The Daily Mirror). 

Football.London’s Alasdair Gold has also said that Spurs’ managing director of football Fabio Paratici is trying to bring in other faces apart from the Juve duo, with a right-wing-back thought to be at the top of his wish list.

He added that the North London club are also lookout for an opportunity to sign a striker.

However, Thomas has now contradicted that claim, insisting that Bentancour is likely to be the last of Tottenham’s new signings before tomorrow’s deadline.

Spurs Web Opinion

I suspect most of Tottenham’s work on deadline day would be centred on trying to offload players rather than bringing ones in. However, if we were to bring a right-back in, we would have had a near-perfect window and made up for our failure to get the Traore and Diaz deals over the line.
