Tottenham are currently in the process of recruiting a new centre-back ahead of the new season and with the North London club in talks with two stars, Spurs will seemingly only sign one.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Bayer Leverkusen’s Edmond Tapsoba remains on Tottenham’s list with talks said to be still ongoing in order to bring the defender to North London. Spurs are also discussing a move with Wolfsburg’s Micky van de Ven and according to the transfer journalist, the Premier League side will only sign one of them based on who will be the cheapest.
Ange Postecoglou is in need of a new defender ahead of the new campaign as the backline was a big weakness for Tottenham last season as the North London outfit conceded 63 goals – the sixth-highest in the Premier League.
