The deals have been coming thick and fast this week, with Tottenham the talk of the transfer window so far after the signings of Radu Dragusin and Timo Werner were announced in recent days.
Dragusin’s deal to join the north London outfit was announced on Thursday evening, with the former Genoa defender arriving at Spurs in a deal worth £25 million. Earlier this week, Ange Postecoglou’s side announced that Timo Werner would return to the Premier League and join Tottenham on loan.
Despite this, Spurs have parted ways with Eric Dier for the remainder of the season, who will join former teammate Harry Kane on loan at Bayern Munich.
Meanwhile, speculation is growing over potential deals for Premier League clubs. Arsenal have been heavily linked with a move for Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad, while there is still a lot of uncertainty surrounding Conor Gallagher’s future at Chelsea.
