Tottenham Hotspur are about to see two players reportedly on Mauricio Pochettino’s wishlist move elsewhere.
Tottenham Hotspur are coming under increasing pressure to get their first choice transfer targets, as their Premier League rivals edge closer to securing transfer deals.
Tottenham were heavily linked with both Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Andre Gomes earlier in the summer, but the pair appear to be set to move elsewhere.
The Daily Record claims that Manchester United are close to bringing in Wan-Bissaka, while the Telegraph suggest Everton are set to sign Gomes.
On the face of it neither deal is a hammer blow to Tottenham, but it does mean that Daniel Levy is coming under even more pressure to secure Mauricio Pochettino’s first choice targets.
Spurs are said to want the likes to Tanguy Ndombele and Giovani Lo Celso in the Daily Mail, and they are pushing for deals for the pair.
However, Tottenham’s contingency plans if they fail to get either of the pair could now be in tatters.
Spurs now cannot switch their attentions to signing Wan-Bissaka or Gomes, and the options on Pochettino’s wishlist are beginning to narrow.
And while it is still not time to panic at Tottenham, the pressure to secure signings is rapidly increasing at White Hart Lane as time passes.
