Tottenham Hotspur will look to sign a quality central defender and a goalkeeper in January.
According to former Tottenham goalkeeper Paul Robinson, they need more depth in the defensive unit, those are the two areas they are looking to strengthen next month and it remains to be seen whether they can bring in the right additions.
Robinson said: “It’ll be a centre-back and a goalkeeper. A new centre-back and a new goalkeeper will be the two areas they look at in January. Fraser Forster has done really well, but I think they need somebody alongside him because behind him they’ve got nothing.”
It is no surprise that they are looking to bring in a quality central defender, especially with Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven struggling with injury problems. Radu Dragusin is the only fit central defender at the club right now.
Tottenham will hope to secure Champions League qualification for the next season and they need to improve during the second half of the campaign in order for that to happen. They need quality players to bounce back strongly.
Spurs aiming to sign a keeper from lower leagues
Meanwhile, a report from Football Insider claims that Tottenham will look to sign a talented young goalkeeper from the lower leagues as well. They are hoping to add more depth to the goalkeeping unit. Fraser Forster will need to be replaced at the end of the season and it makes sense to invest in a talented young player who could push Guglielmo Vicario for the starting spot in the coming seasons.
Young players will certainly be attracted to the idea of joining Tottenham and they might be able to sign a quality prospect for a reasonable amount of money as well. It will be interesting to see how the situation unfolds.
