After signing a defensive midfielder like Victor Wanyama and a striker in the form of Vincent Janssen, Tottenham need to sign an attacking playmaker and a versatile midfielder this summer.
French playmaker Georges-Kevin Nkoudou should be a top signing for Pochettino to reinforce the attacking midfield at White Hart Lane.
As far as the versatile midfielder is concerned, Spurs are linked with numerous players and according to the latest reports, Newcastle United’s Moussa Sissoko is in the limelight.
Tottenham are interested in hiring the services of the Les Bleus midfielder who has once again come up and stated his desire to leave the Magpies (Express via France Football). Sissoko said:
“My priority is to stay in England even if I’m not against going to search for a new challenge elsewhere,”
“I particularly want to play with big players and in top-level matches.”
Last season, the 26-year-old star featured in 37 league games for Newcastle United, scored a goal and provided 8 assists. Not to forget, he was impressive for the national side at the European Championships.
Sissoko can effectively play anywhere in the center/attacking midfield. As per the provided Express link, Newcastle are looking to get around 35 million pounds ($46 million) from the sale of their prized asset.

You must be mad to think Spurs would splash £35m on Sissoko, he’s just not worth it. Name one game off the top of your head beside the Euro 2016 final where he played a blinder. And to think I expected the subject of your article to be Mario Gotze before I clicked on!
Sissoko £35m has the world gone mad, he had a cap season for Newcastle, put in a couple of good performances in the Euros so how on earth can anyone justify that amount of money
