Mauricio Pochettino mainly reinforced the defense and attack last summer. Stars like Son and Njie arrived to strengthen the attacking department whereas Alderweireld, Wimmer and Trippier strengthened the back line.
Now, the North Londoners must further improve the quality of their squad to play in the Champions League against the best of teams next season. The Argentine boss needs to sign key players for the strike-force and the midfield.
As far as the midfield is concerned, once again West Ham star Kouyate is in the limelight. Spurs made an move of $22m (Mirror) to sign the 26-year-old Senegal star last summer but the Hammers refused the offer with a cheeky swap demand for Tottenham’s star striker Harry Kane.
As per the provided Mirror link, Pochettino is a big fan of the African midfielder but West Ham Chariman David Sullivan has claimed that he is not for sale.
Spurs must sign a dynamic midfielder in the summer and Kouyate perfectly fits the bill. This season, he has been a key member of the Hammers’ side under the management of Bilic.
In 31 league appearances, Kouyate has scored 5 goals and provided 3 assists while mainly playing as a defensive and central midfielder for the club (Transfermarkt).
He is the midfield general of West Ham United and would be hard to lure but Pochettino must splash the cash to secure his services.
