Tottenham transfer news: The latest Spurs media briefing from north London with reaction to stories on Ansu Fati and Eberechi Eze amid Michael Olise's Chelsea decision
For many, Tottenham's transfer window has been a success.
A new goalkeeper has come in to replace Hugo Lloris inbetween the sticks, Micky van de Ven has swapped the Bundesliga for the Premier League to upgrade Ange Postecoglou's defence and James Maddison's £40million move from Leicester City has added more creativity in attack.
The England international is one of the Eagles' most exciting players having enjoyed an upwards trajectory since moving from QPR. Last season was his best-performing season in the Premier League, scoring 10 and assisting four, leaving him with a number of interested parties this summer.
Having already lost Wilfried Zaha, Palace were extremely unlikely to allow both Olise and Eze to leave in the same window. Now Olise has committed his future, Spurs could make their move.
football.london says: The prospect of Eze moving to north London is a very exciting one and for some, a no-brainer. His qualities in attacking areas have made him an attractive individual, but I'm not 100% sure it's what Tottenham needed.
Maddison's move from Leicester has added some much-needed creativity from the midfield. Postecoglou can only name 11 players and Maddison is expected to make up the midfield trio behind Son Heung-min, Richarlison and Dejan Kulusevski.
However, Eze, like Maddison, can play in a number of positions and this summer is probably the perfect time for him to secure a move to a big club. After shining at Palace, a move to Spurs would see him share the reins as one of their star players in an important season for the club.
Eze's contract in south London expires in 2025, meaning there could be a bargain on the cards.
Daniel Levy's list of attacking reinforcements is seemingly increasing and Barcelona's Ansu Fati is a new one linked. According to reports in Europe, Spurs have approached super-agent Jorge Mendes with their intentions of offering the Spain international a long-term contract.
Unfortunately for Spurs, they are not alone with north London rivals Arsenal also keen.
football.london says: Now Ansu Fait in the Premier League is a move we can get behind. He's seemed to be in football for years but is still viewed as a wonderkid.
After breaking through the La Masia academy, he career hasn't really taken off the way he would have hoped for. However, when called upon for Barcelona and Spain, he has bags of potential to grow into. A move to the Premier League, for obvious financial reasons, makes the most sense, but will Spurs be able to beat Arsenal to his signature?
The Gunners have Champions League football to offer and have flexed their financial pull already this window. Their interest could be a huge blow for Spurs.
