Tottenham transfer news and rumours: Fresh Martial update, Ndombele talks, Traore bid

While these are early days in the Antonio Conte era, this is a hugely important transfer window for the club.

To expect anything in the way of wholesale changes during the arduous January market would be too much, although Conte is a man who does need satisfying. Having constantly spoken about needing to raise the level of the team, surely Spurs will be doing all they can to back him during what remains of this month.

At least showing Conte there’s a chance to grow and a readiness to provide him with fresh options is of the utmost importance. If the the Italian does not feel there’s a willingness to rebuild the squad, perhaps the former Chelsea boss’ frustration will grow.

With that in mind, here’s a look at the latest on Spurs’ transfer gossip.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Spurs and Newcastle United have had loan offers for the forward snubbed.

While Martial is believed to be looking for a way out of Old Trafford, it seems his future could lie abroad. Sevilla, Barcelona and Juventus are all said to be keen in what must be a blow for Spurs given Conte has called for a new addition in that department.

Dan Kilpatrick has previously reported that Fabio Paratici is actively looking to sell the midfielder.

Conte has been rather cutting in his assessment of the Frenchman and, after being booed off against Morecambe in the FA Cup, it’s very hard to see a way back for him.

Still, finding a buyer this month is likely to be difficult.

Perhaps the major name to have been linked with Spurs this month, Wolves have snubbed a £15m offer for the player and are holding out for £20m,

It remains to be seen if Spurs will go that far.

Given Pierluigi Gollini has barely covered himself in glory and Hugo Lloris is yet to extend his contract, a new goalkeeper could be needed at Spurs.

Earlier this month, the MEN reported that Spurs were keen on a move for Manchester United’s Dean Henderson, although Ralf Rangnick has since stressed he’s looking to keep the England hopeful despite his lack of first-team minutes.
