Tottenham Hotspur are set to complete and confirm the signings of Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentacur from Juventus before the transfer window closes tonight (Monday), according to Fabrizio Romano.
Spurs boss Antonio Conte was keen to add a player who can play in a wing-back role to his squad, and having missed out of Luis Diaz, who joined Liverpool from FC Porto, and Adama Traore, who returned to Barcelona from Wolverhampton Wanderers, the club moved for Kulusevski.
The 21-year-old has already completed his medical in London and the official announcement of the transfer is expected in the coming hours, with midfielder Bentacur set to follow down the same path. Spurs’ midfield ranks are in need of refreshing, with Tanguy Ndombele expected to leave.
Bentacur, 24, has made 19 Serie A appearances for Juventus this term, 13 as a part of the starting XI, getting two assists to his name in the process, but no goals.
