Timo Werner and Radu Dragusin have already signed, trained and made their debuts for the Lilywhites, with the January transfer window only just at its halfway point. The majority of Spurs’ Premier League rivals have done little to bolster their squads.
In a bid to maintain momentum, Tottenham are rumoured to be weighing up a third January swoop which could tick the final box on their winter to-do list. In Werner and Dragusin, Postecoglou has welcomed a versatile attacker and an athletic defender.
A new presence in the middle of the park is all that’s missing, and Brazilian outlet Gavea News claim that Joao Gomes is firmly in the north Londoners’ crosshairs.
The report states that Tottenham’s interest is so advanced, a substantial £30million offer could be submitted over the coming days. Wolves would be sure to hold out for a hefty fee, having waved goodbye to fellow midfielders Ruben Neves and Matheus Nunes during the summer.
Manager Gary O’Neil has been credited for taking numerous players to another level this campaign, including 10-goal forward Hwang Hee-chan and Gomes himself.
Postecoglou has proven to hold sway in the transfer market, with Dragusin opting to join Spurs over German heavyweights Bayern Munich. The 21-year-old came on for the final minutes of Spurs’ 2-2 draw with Manchester United on Sunday afternoon.
Werner also featured at Old Trafford, sliding in Rodrigo Bentancur for the last goal of the game to notch an assist on his debut. Tottenham are fifth in the Premier League table and only five points off the top.
“I couldn’t be prouder of the players,” said Postecoglou after the final whistle. “To put on a performance like that, here at Old Trafford against a team desperate for a result, I thought the way we handled it was outstanding.”
