Fabrizio Romano has given an idea of the type of players Tottenham could have in this January’s transfer window.
It hasn’t been a particularly positive period for Spurs recently, as Antonio Conte’s side suffered a shock 2-0 defeat at home to Aston Villa in their last game, making it just two wins from their last seven. games in the Premier League.
Writing in the Daily Briefing for CaughtOffside, Romano says he thinks Tottenham need a new right-back and centre-back this winter, while suggesting they will look for young players who don’t have a huge salary.
“I think Antonio Conte has been very honest. Young players with a normal salary, and not crazy signings”, said Romano.
“This will be the mission of the Spurs. In my opinion, they need at least a right back and a central defender to compete at the best level, but in January it’s not easy.”

It’s been a bit quiet in terms of Tottenham transfer news recently, and Romano doesn’t seem to have any specific names to report on yet either, so it will be interesting to see what Fabio Paratici and co do. can assemble in the next few weeks.
Conte did a great job helping Spurs qualify for the Champions League last season, but it looks like more reinforcements will be needed this January to help things pick up in the second half of this campaign.
