Villareal center-back Pau Torres may be on his way to joining Premier League.
Tottenham Hotspurs finished in the top 4 in the last season of the Premier League. Since the Italian manager took over Spurs have been faring well in all their games. After their absence from elite continental football, Conte finally landed the London club in the grandest of the club competition.
To strengthen their squad for the upcoming footballing campaign, Spurs have been quite active this summer in the transfer market. The club has completed the signing of the Croatian winger Ivan Perisic to boost their attacking setup. The Brazilian winger Richarlison has also chosen to move to the North-London club from the blue half of Merseyside.
When it comes to the midfield, they have signed 25 years old Brighton midfielder Yves Bissouma. It seems that the Italian manager is looking to erase all the defensive woes this season.
They have already confirmed the three signings in the defense. Spurs have signed the Nottingham Forest loanee Djed Spence from Middlesbrough for 20 million euros on a five-year deal.
They have also signed Fraser Forster from Saints as the second keeper for the club with Hugo Lloris being the main custodian for the team. The club has also convinced the FC Barcelona French center-back Clement Lenglet to play for them. Spurs signed Lenglet on a season-long loan.
According to recent reports from football. London the Lilywhite club Spurs seem to be the front runners to sign the 25-year-old Spanish central defender. After a wonderful last season with Villareal, Pau Torres attracted many suitors across Europe. As things stand now, he is all ready to make a move out of his homeland.
Torres had a very good campaign under their manager Unai Emery last season. He has been a real wall for Villareal. He found the back of the net six times last season being one of the dominant figures in the set-pieces. As well as managed to register an assist in the 47 games. He is also a good distributor of the ball with an 85.8 percentage of passing.
The Spanish defender can be a really good pair for Eric Dier and can fare well in the three-defense system of Antonio Conte. So, the Spurs need to hurry up to sign him before anyone snatches him.
