Spurs insider Paul O’Keefe has made a big claim about what Tottenham Hotspur are trying to do in the final three days of the transfer window after wrapping up a deal for Xavi Simons.
Simons has passed a medical ahead of his Tottenham move and is expected to be announced as a Spurs player.
The 22-year-old is a real coup for Tottenham, and his arrival goes a long way towards making up for what has been a disappointing transfer window for the North London club.
Spurs fans are understandably over the moon with the capture of Simons after what happened with Eberechi Eze and Morgan Gibbs-White earlier this summer, and it turns out they may be in for a very exciting end to the transfer window.
Tottenham are targeting two more signings this summer
It has been widely reported that Tottenham also want to add a winger to their squad before the window slams shut.
Paul O’Keefe has now taken to social media to claim that Spurs want to complete not just one, but two more signings, before the end of the transfer window.
Apart from wanting to add to their forward line, O’Keefe revealed that the Lilywhites are also keen on signing another centre-back.

Centre-back has become a priority for Spurs
Tottenham starlet Luka Vuskovic has officially completed a season-long loan move to Hamburg.
It has been claimed by The Standard that Vuskovic’s departure has made Spurs more likely to add another centre-back to their squad before Monday’s deadline.
According to reports over recent days, Spurs are eyeing a late move for Brentford centre-back Nathan Collins, while Manuel Akanji has also been named as a Tottenham target.
