As per Sky Sports reporter Kaveh Solhekol, shared by the broadcaster, there has been another promising update on Tottenham Hotspur's links to winger Adama Traore.

The Lowdown: Spurs in talks...

In what has been a long-winded transfer saga, with Spurs having been in talks over this last fortnight, reports have suggested that an agreement is near but they haven't quite wrapped it up yet.

Some sources suggest that Tottenham were looking to sign him on loan with the obligation to buy at one stage with reports then emerging of a rejected £15 million bid for Traore.

Wolves apparently want around £10m more than that if Spurs are going to seal a deal with Solhekol now sharing the latest on Sky.

The Latest: Spurs 'very, very close'...

According to his information, Tottenham are 'very, very close' to signing Traore in a deal worth £20 million with a compromise fee on the cards.

"Spurs are getting close to signing him for a compromise fee of around £20m," Solhehol explained.

"Last week they offered £15m, that was rejected, Wolves want about £25m, I think a deal is there to be done for around £20m.

"I think Adama Traore is now getting very, very close."

The Verdict: Exciting times...

As Spurs also attempt to conclude other moves, both incomings and outgoings, the Lilywhites may well want this over the line first as they have been in negotiations for a while.

Lauded as a player who 'could really excite the Tottenham fans' by pundit Noel Whelan, his impressive average of 4.2 successful take-ons per 90 indicates a real threat who could be of use to manager Antonio Conte in the right-wing back role.

For £20m, he could be a real snip, especially considering he is still just 25-years-old and possesses bags of Premier League experience.
