West Ham and Tottenham’s transfer windows have been interlinked so far.
One of the biggest deals in the Premier League this summer has been Mohammed Kudus’ move to Spurs.
This is despite the two London clubs rarely conducting business with each other.
However, Tottenham are set to depend on West Ham again as Thomas Franks looks to rid Spurs of their flops.

The Brazilian has failed to adapt to Italian football since his move to Juventus from Aston Villa last summer.
Therefore, a quick return to the Premier League is being touted, with West Ham considering a loan for Luiz with the option to buy. The loan fee is being touted at £8.7 million, while the permanent fee could be in the region of £21.7-26m.
However, the signing could lead to a domino effect, which would lead back to Spurs.
According to Tuttosport (16 July), Juventus are considering a move for Tottenham’s Yves Bissouma.
The midfielder has struggled for consistent form at Spurs since his £30m move from Brighton and is now entering the last year of his contract.
Therefore, Juventus are considering a move for the Mali international, with the London club valuing the midfielder between £19.9m and £21.63m.
However, the signing would only go through if Luiz is sold by the Old Lady.

Douglas Luiz would be a transformative signing for West Ham
Going into the new season, there are genuine fears that West Ham could be relegated from the Premier League.
However, if the Hammers get the signing of Luiz over the line, it would be a massive statement from Potter.

Douglas Luiz was fantastic for years at Aston Villa
Despite having a poor campaign in the Serie A, the Brazilian is still a top player and would dominate the midfield at West Ham.
Hopefully, Potter can quickly get the deal over the line before another club looks to swoop in.
