Spurs haven’t been the most aggressive in the market lately, but they do have money to spend now that they sold Harry Kane for more than £100 million.

Recent media attention has focused on links to Brennan Johnson, but it looks like Tottenham may not only sign the Welshman this summer.

In fact, according to Sky Sports’ Lyall Thomas, appearing on Last Word on Spurs, Tottenham are still looking for a new defender. Thomas and his colleagues haven’t quite been able to identify the player that Spurs are now evaluating.

Mystery defender wanted

Thomas offered his knowledge of the Spurs’ strategies.

“Spurs still have one option; I’m attempting to identify it and determine whether another player has entered the game. Perr Schuurs is one they like, but he is right-footed, and Tosin Adarabioyo is looking less and less likely. Finding out who this possibility is and whether it is one we’ve already discussed or another who has entered the picture will take some work on my part and that of other journalists. Yes, that does occur; new players do enter the picture, stated Thomas.

Exciting

This rumor is intriguing.

Although Spurs have been dominating so far, their defense still has a weak spot in case any players go hurt or are suspended.

Yes, Cristian Romero and Micky Van de Ven have so far shown themselves to be a fantastic team, but if either of them gets hurt, Spurs’ defense looks, to put it mildly, quite shaky.

Fortunately, it sounds like assistance will soon arrive, and it’s intriguing to wonder who this unknown defense target could be.
