Tottenham Hotspur are pushing hard in the transfer market this summer, with activity on both fronts gathering serious momentum heading into the window.
On the outgoing side, captain Cristian Romero has emerged as one of the most talked-about names, with Atletico Madrid leading the chase for his signature.
Numbers have already been discussed between Tottenham and Atletico Madrid, though Spurs are yet to receive a formal offer from the Spanish club.
Inter Milan are also keen on securing the Argentine defender, but the Serie A champions need to sell players before they can act on that interest.
According to Fabrizio Romano, the likeliest outcome at present is that Romero ends up at Inter Milan rather than Atletico Madrid.
Romero signed a new deal at Spurs last summer that runs until 2029, yet the defender is understood to want out of north London this summer.
Tottenham are not standing in his way, and the club appears prepared to lose one of its most high-profile players before the window closes.
In a remarkable sidebar to the story, Arsenal were also linked with Romero as they looked to strengthen their centre-back options, though that interest never progressed beyond initial enquiries.
Spurs showed considerable reluctance to allow their captain to join a Premier League rival, let alone a direct local rival such as Arsenal.
On the incoming front, Tottenham are actively searching for wide attacking reinforcements to bolster their squad ahead of next season.
Liverpool winger Cody Gakpo features high on Spurs’ shortlist as they look to add a left winger or striker to their ranks this summer.
Tottenham are also pursuing Savinho as a potential right-wing option, with the club targeting multiple attacking signings before the window shuts.
Liverpool have not yet opened the doors to a Gakpo sale, meaning Tottenham face a significant challenge in prising him away from Anfield.
The battle for Gakpo is reportedly heating up, with a £35 million offer said to have been made as rival clubs circle the Dutch international.
Spurs will be hoping to move quickly and decisively to secure their top targets before competing clubs can complicate their summer recruitment plans.
