The 3 positions Spurs are reportedly targeting this summer, but who will they sign to fill them?

Tottenham Hotspur have identified three key positions for improvement, with Sky Sports reporting a central midfielder, left-back and backup for Harry Kane are the priorities.

A new centre-back is also being considered, but is not thought to be as high on manager Mauricio Pochettino’s list as the other three roles.

Who is on the radar?

The report goes on to outline that Lille star Yves Bissouma is being targeted by Spurs, with Everton, Monaco and Schalke also among the midfielder’s admirers.

Tottenham want a long term replacement for Mousa Dembele, who could leave this summer, with Watford’s Abdoulaye Doucoure, Geoffrey Kondogbia of Inter Milan and Red Bull Salzburg ace Amadou Haidara also being considered.

The search for a left-sided full-back would suggest that the North Londoners still expect Danny Rose to depart, with the Guardian reporting Manchester United remain interested.

Fulham sensation Ryan Sessegnon started his still very new career as a left-back and as ESPN outlines, has been on Spurs’ radar for some time, although the 18-year-old has become more of a forward as his Championship player of the year-winning season has progressed.

That means Pochettino may view Sessegnon as that much desired backup for Kane, although recent reports from the Daily Mail about a move for Anthony Martial seems to be a better fit in that respect.
