Tottenham: Media members react to ‘great’ Forster news
Members of the media have been left thrilled by the ‘great’ transfer news out of Tottenham Hotspur on shot-stopper Fraser Forster.
The Lowdown: Big window ahead…
Spurs transfer chief Fabio Paratici could be set for a huge summer before manager Antonio Conte’s first full Premier League season in charge of the Lilywhites.
The north Londoners were granted a £150 million equity increase which will be used to back the Tottenham head coach and ensure he has most of what he needs to compete for 22/23.
In a boost for the ex-Chelsea boss, two new signings have already been confirmed with both Ivan Perisic and Fraser Forster officially arriving on permanent deals at the club.
