Transfer news, rumours and gossip from Tottenham; summer transfer window opens on June 10 and closes at 11pm on September 1



Wrapping up the Tottenham transfer news, rumours and gossip in the 2022 summer window.

Spurs' Bastoni pursuit depends on Inter sales

Tottenham still want Inter Milan central defender Alessandro Bastoni and their chances of signing him could depend on how much money Inter can raise from other sales.

Bastoni's agent has said the player is staying at the San Siro - and Inter want to keep him.

However, it is thought Inter need to raise in the region of €60m by the end of the month to balance the books.

They would prefer to sell Milan Skriniar and Stefan de Vrij. There has been initial interest from PSG in Skriniar.

Tottenham are in advanced talks over signing Djed Spence from Middlesbrough.

The defender spent the season on loan at Nottingham Forest.

Spurs are among the front runners to sign the player and they are keen to see off other competition to bolster the wing-back position


A decision on his future could come in the next few days once the England U21 games are over.


The club are aware they must add to their list of homegrown players.


Spurs have already signed two of the expected six or seven signings this summer in Ivan Perisic and Fraser Forster.


Kane 'ready to sign' new Spurs deal

Harry Kane is reportedly willing to sign a new contract at Tottenham.


The England captain pushed to join Manchester City last summer and is understood to have turned down a contract extension shortly after reluctantly conceding that he would be staying at Spurs.


But the Evening Standard claim Kane is now pleased by Spurs' progress under Antonio Conte and increasingly hopeful he can fulfil his ambitions of winning a trophy with his boyhood club next season.


Kane is yet to hold talks with the club, with two years to run on his current deal, and has been focussed on securing Champions League qualification.


'Spurs clearly backing Conte this summer'

Sky Sports News reporter Paul Gilmour:


"Following the news that Tottenham have put in £150m of equity funds into the club, the club are clearly backing Antonio Conte in the transfer market this summer.


"They will target several positions including goalkeeper, centre back, wing-back, central midfielder and a striker. As many as six or seven players could arrive. They will need to find the right balance with homegrown players. There is currently an imbalance in this area.

"Conte wants more depth in the squad, and he also wants to add experienced players, a shift from recent times when Spurs targeted younger players.


"There are some at the club who feel it's inaccurate they didn't spend in the past but there is an acknowledgement they didn't always get recruitment right.


"Fabio Paratici can do no wrong at the club currently. Additions of Rodrigo Bentancur and Dejan Kulusevski have given belief that they are finally getting it right in this area.


"Extensive homework is being carried out on player ability and character. Spurs recently rejected the chance to sign one talented Premier League player because their research highlighted concerns he could be a disruptive influence."
