Your support makes all the difference.Tottenham are set to announce the signing Lyon midfielder Tanguy Ndombele imminently.
The two clubs have been locked in intense negotiations over the last month with a club-record figure of £55m plus add ons finally now set.
And after a breakthrough in talks personal terms have been agreed with the player in London to complete a medical and seal the deal.
Ndombele's move will surpass Davinson Sanchez as the most expensive in the club's history.
The French international could be joined by another new face shortly with Spurs apparently setting themselves to raid Roma for midfield sensation Nicolo Zaniolo.
The Serie A side are keen to keep hold of the 20-year-old but the Daily Mail report they could be tempted to sell should Tottenham offer over £40m for him.
Those funds could be raised by selling Toby Alderweireld, according to the report.
The Belgian international can leave for just £25m this month and with Roma in the market for central defenders after selling Kostas Manolas to Napoli a deal could be done.
Another exit could see Christian Eriksen leave for Real Madrid.
The Danish international wants "a new challenge" and with his contract expiring at the end of next season Spurs could cash in this summer.
Spanish newspaper Marca say they would now do a deal for just £62m with Real said to be very keen.
Eriksen's agent Martin Schoots is also said to be jetting out to Madrid this week for talks.
The push for Giovani Lo Celso continues with Mundo Deportivo reporting that Real Betis have finally set a fee.
They say Tottenham must pay £67million if they want the Argentine international with Eriksen's exit potentially freeing up the funds to make a deal happen.
Jack Clarke has completed his move but fans won't see him for a little while.
Clarke was a standout performer during Leeds’ push for promotion last year is set to return there on loan next season too.
Meanwhile Spurs have been offered the chance to sign Malcom, should they wish, with AS reporting that Arsenal are also interested in Barcelona's forgotten man.
Elsewhere, the Daily Mail have reported that Spurs are closing in on long-term target Ryan Sessegnon, with the club confident a deal can finally be done for the 19-year-old this summer.
Spurs are also ready to challenge rivals West Ham for the signing of Celta Vigo striker Maxi Gomez, according to El Desmarque.
According to Onda Cero, a potential move for Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos could still materialise, but the 22-year-old would prefer to move to Spurs on loan, rather than be sold by his parent club
Spurs are also one of a number of clubs who are interested in highly rated West Brom winger Rekeem Harper, who is out of contract at the start of July.
Birmingham Live reports that Spurs would like to loan Harper back to the Midlands club to gain experience.
