Tottenham consider transfer swoop for PL ace that offers clue about how Conte plans to use Perisic

Posted by

Tottenham are reportedly considering a potential summer transfer window swoop for Newcastle United forward Allan Saint-Maximin.

Spurs chief Fabio Paratici is said to be a big fan of Saint-Maximin, with the Frenchman being eyed as a possible addition to strengthen Antonio Conte’s attack, with recent signing Ivan Perisic more likely to operate as a wing-back, according to football.london.

Saint-Maximin has shone in his time in the Premier League, playing with tremendous skill and flair that could make him a real hit with Tottenham fans.

Conte already has quality up front in the form of Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski, and it could be useful to have Saint-Maximin as another option to give the squad more depth.

Perisic, who is joining on a free transfer from Inter Milan, can also play out wide in a front three, but it seems he’s been signed with the view of operating as a wing-back, according to the report.

It remains to be seen if that’s really the best way to use the Croatia international, but it should mean there’s room for another attacking signing at Tottenham this summer.

  1. It’s hard not to get caught up in the euphoria with the names we’re being linked to, but I’m keeping in mind the window hasn’t officially opened yet.

  2. Sorry Paratici has been blinded,stMaxim is not as good as we have seen.He is a player not unlike Grealish. Good on the ball but rarely a maker or goal scorer when heavily marked.
    Son and Moura would keep a player like that down the list especially now that we have Kulusevski and Perisic .
    Build on this Central Defence and Full Back problem Let’s see Bergwynn sold off first and put in an offer for the likes of WardProwse or Bissouma. Eriksen Spence or Aaron’s

    Winks LoCelso and Ndombele must be sold as well as Rodon. Though we should now be using the Youth of Devine Scarlett and Lavinier as well as Malachi Walcott and Tanganga and Skipp .It is also said Nile John holds a good role as does Craig.
    Do not forget UEFA do NOT like Spurs and any attempt to stop us succeeding must be two fingered at. Remember Rennes 3-0 yet the PL did nothing to Woolwich.
