Tottenham are making significant progress in an effort to hijack Manchester United's move to sign West Ham United midfielder Mateus Fernandes this summer.
Spurs certainly aren't messing around in the window as they look to build a squad capable of climbing back up towards the top half of the Premier League table.
They are likely to face competition from United for a host of signings, despite the Manchester club competing in the Champions League next season.
Tottenham are showing plenty of ambition in the market, targeting players who are attracting interest from clubs in Europe.
