The Times have claimed that Antonio Conte wants Tottenham to sign an attacking player, a midfielder and a defender in the January transfer window.

The Evening Standard reported on Tuesday that Spurs are set to back Conte once again in January, with the Italian keen on making reinforcements to the squad.

The report explained that the North London club are willing to loan out Bryan Gil, Japhet Tanganga, and Pape Sarr, and that the Spurs head coach wants direct replacements for all three players.

The Times have now backed up that claim, explaining that Gil and Tanganga are ‘unwanted’ by Conte.

The report adds that Spurs fell short of signing another attacking player, a midfielder and a defender during the summer transfer window and that the 53-year-old is expected to ask for those additions in January.

The Times also add that Tottenham are likely to want to loan out summer signing Djed Spence so that the right-back gets sufficient game time during the second half of the season.

Spurs Web Opinion

Replacing Sarr, Gil and Tanganga, with three players Conte trusts, would certainly make our squad a lot stronger.

With the accumulated fatigue from the World Cup, we are likely to face a lot more injuries in the second half of the season, and the Italian will want significant reinforcements in January to cope with that possibility.
