Promes is a player Tottenham Hotspur were reported to be keen on last summer by The Mail, and Roma’s interest should cause them to reconsider a move.
Already this week Roma have beaten Spurs to the signature of Turkish international winger Cengiz Under, and they appear determined to add more talent to their ranks.
Promes played a key role for Spartak Moscow as they won the Russian Premier League last season, scoring 11 goals and providing 10 assists along the way.

He is an international teammate of Vincent Janssen with Holland and at just 25-years-old fits the profile of the type of player Tottenham should be looking to add to their squad.

Promes is a quality player with an end product who fits the bill for what they need. The difference is Roma at present are being proactive in the transfer market and Spurs are sitting back and letting other teams beat them to players who would improve their team and squad.
