Here is your morning Tottenham Hotspur digest on Saturday, June 17.

Kulusevski deal close

Tottenham are 'very close' to agreeing a permanent deal for Dejan Kulusevski, according to reports in Italy.

According to Gianluca Di Marzio, who has confirmed the two clubs are 'very close' to agreeing the final details on the deal. The report from Italy has been followed by further details over Kulusevski's contract deals via Fabrizio Romano.

Newcastle star sends Maddison message

Tottenham transfer target James Maddison has received several messages of interest from Newcastle and England striker Callum Wilson.

With the pair linking up at St George's Park for training for their country, Wilson posted two separate hints and messages to Maddison. First he wrote: "Just two Coventry boys having fun," alongside images of the duo battling for possession and pulling each other's shirts.

North London hotel

Tottenham Hotspur have submitted a pre-planning application to Haringey Council as they seek to increase the height of the new 'blade-like' hotel they are looking to build next to their stadium.

The plans for the complex on the south end of the huge stadium always contained a hotel, approved in 2016, which would be built in a later phase of the development. Now the club have submitted new proposals, discussed at a Haringey Council planning committee meeting on June 5, to make the hotel even bigger and tweak its appearance.

The new proposals would see the hotel, which also contains residential apartments, increase in height by 17m, adding another five storeys to its summit. The extra space will result in larger apartments than those currently approved rather than add to the 49 planned in the proposed 22-storey building.
