# Tottenham: Paratici ‘also’ attempting ‘incredible’ player move

**[Tottenham Hotspur](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/) are ‘also’ attempting a move to sign one ‘incredible’ player amid the club’s heavily reported talks for Richarlison, according to reports.**

### The Lowdown: Spurs push for Richarlison…

After [sealing a trio of deals](https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/yves-bissouma-tottenham-transfer-confirmed-b1006864.html) for Ivan Perisic, Fraser Forster and Yves Bissouma – it is reliably believed that the north Londoners have now [set their sights](https://twitter.com/CDEccleshare/status/1541830265886089222) on Everton’s star striker.

Claims have [emerged in the last 48 hours](https://twitter.com/CDEccleshare/status/1541830265886089222) that talks are fairly advanced and progressing nicely as the Lilywhites enter pole position to sign him for manager Antonio Conte.

The Italian [wants](https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/yves-bissouma-tottenham-transfer-confirmed-b1006864.html) upgrades in the attacking areas, at centre-back and in the right-wing-back area ahead of his first full 2022/2023 [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) season in charge of Tottenham.

### The Latest: Tottenham ‘also’ attempting to sign ‘incredible’ player…

Transfer chief Fabio Paratici is reportedly spinning many plates as news emerges courtesy of [The Evening Standard.](https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/richarlison-tottenham-daniel-levy-bill-kenwright-everton-b1008780.html)

The reliable news outlet claims Tottenham are ‘also’ in the middle of attempts to sign Middlesbrough wing-back Djed Spence, who has been called ‘[incredible](https://www.footballinsider247.com/tottenham-news-massive-djed-spence-claim-issued-by-expert-after-incredible-update/)‘ by Alan Hutton, and are ‘targeting a £15m move’.

Indeed, despite the [serious pursuit](https://twitter.com/CDEccleshare/status/1541830265886089222) of Richarlison, it appears Tottenham haven’t given up on their defensive hunt for the 21-year-old either.

### The Verdict: Get it done…

Signing Spence, who was [pivotal to Nottingham Forest’s promotion push](https://www.nottinghamforest.news/2022/05/01/nottingham-forest-duo-heap-praise-on-djed-spence-after-milestone/) whilst on loan last season, would come as a seriously brilliant buy for Conte.

Homegrown and able to balance the books of their quota, the Englishman also been called the ‘[perfect player for Conte](https://www.givemesport.com/88020720-tottenham-20m-star-is-the-perfect-player-for-conte-at-hotspur-way)‘ due to his playing style on the right of a back five.

Having emerged as a[brilliant defender](https://www.nottinghamforest.news/2022/05/01/nottingham-forest-duo-heap-praise-on-djed-spence-after-milestone/)whilst on a temporary deal at the City Ground, Conte and Paratici must surely pull out all the stops to get a young, English talent who fits like a glove into the [manager’s system](https://spielverlagerung.com/2016/12/25/antonio-contes-3-4-3/).
