A mooted Tottenham transfer spree must target their defence after Antonio Conte changed into informed 3 cutting-edge defenders just aren’t true enough.
Conte arrived at Spurs after fostering a recognition as one in every of football’s serial winners. However, if the Italian mastermind is to hold his trophy-scooping legacy at Tottenham, his squad may first require foremost surgical operation.
Indeed, a latest file from Football Insider insisted ‘most important signings’ were on the horizon.
The club had been tipped to be making ready for a bumper January window in which several arrivals and exits might be sanctioned.
One participant who should leave is Wales worldwide, Joe Rodon.
The 24-12 months-antique became reported in late-November to be looking for a way out of Tottenham. His reasoning seemingly stemmed from his lack of minutes at the pitch. Newcastle have due to the fact been linked with the centre-back, together with Brighton and West Ham.
Conte broadly speaking operates a three-man backline, with a solid foundation important to his footballing philosophy.
However, according to Gabriel Agnbonlahor, Rodon and fellow centre-halves Davinson Sanchez and Eric Dier are all sub-par.
Furthermore, the ex-Aston Villa forward insisted the trio aren’t a patch on recent fan favourites Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen.
“I simply don’t think Rodon is ideal sufficient, to be honest,” Agbonlahor informed Football Insider.
