Tottenham Hotspur and chairman Daniel Levy are attempting to get another January signing over the line imminently, making a promise to one player which could help to seal an agreement in the next few days.
Tottenham explore further January reinforcements in multiple positions
It is no secret that Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou has been forced to deal with major player selection issues over the last two months, with Guglielmo Vicario, Fraser Forster, Ben Davies, Micky van de Ven, Cristian Romero, Destiny Udogie, Richarlison, James Maddison, Pape Matar Sarr and Wilson Odobert all unavailable for their last game against Liverpool on Wednesday.

Spurs are seriously interested.
While a portion of the aforementioned players are set to make a return soon, this wave of absences has exposed Postecoglou’s serious lack of depth in key areas, with technical director Johan Lange and Levy looking to back their under-fire boss in the winter transfer market as a result.

Forster’s underwhelming goalkeeping performances in place of Vicario motivated the Lilywhites to strike a £12.5 million deal to sign young shot-stopper Antonin Kinsky from Slavia Prague, and it is a move which paid real dividends against Liverpool in their Carabao Cup semi-final first leg.
The Czech put in an outstanding display on his full debut, as Postecoglou’s side shut out the Premier League frontrunners to clinch a 1-0 win over them at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
