The Telegraph report that Spurs are closing in on a deal to bring Burnley right-back Kieran Trippier to the club, and the deal could be completed ‘before the weekend’.
Burnley were relegated from the Premier League back in May, and some of their key assets could be leaving Turf Moor this summer as the team will be transformed with players leaving and arriving in the coming transfer window.
It is believed that Spurs are looking at bringing in some competition for Kyle Walker over the summer, and are looking at loaning out DeAndre Yedlin as he looks to adapt to English football.
It will take a bid of £3.5m to trigger a release clause in the right-back’s contract, and Bournemouth, Aston Villa and Liverpool have all considered moves for Tripier.
The Telegraph add that Spurs are clear favourites and a medical for the full-back could take place in the next couple of days and the deal could be completed by the weekend.
