Ange Postecoglou has revived Tottenham since his arrival this year. He turned Spurs into a team whose attacking play is captivating and, according to many, the most interesting team to watch in the Premier League. His Tottenham was first in the table after the 10th round, but in the meantime, he was decimated by injuries and suspensions, which also reflected in the results. The London club is back on the winning track, but the series of defeats has shown everyone in the club that the team needs reinforcements, especially in defence. Therefore, Spurs leaders want Nice stopper Jean-Clair Todibo.Olunga’s boss: ‘Todibo is a Salafist, the Algerians are the worst’The French international, who is on Manchester United’s wish list, is a part of the best back four in all Top 5 European leagues. Along with a 40-year-old Dante, Todibo is a starter in Nice’s defence which conceded only nine goals after 16 games in League 1 so it’s logical that other teams are interested in a 40 million euros rated defender. It is not a small amount of money for January reinforcements, but Daily Mail assures that during the previous week, the leaders of Tottenham met with Todibo and his agent. How much Spurs lack width in the central part of the defence was best seen after the Cristian Romero – Micky van de Ven tandem was separated. It happened in that disaster against Chelsea when the Dutchman was injured, and the Argentine was suspended. Eric Dier has not been taken seriously for a long time, so Ben Davis and Emerson Royal were forced to form the central defensive pair, and it is an understatement to say that such a forced solution by Ange Postecoglou had no prospect of bringing anything positive to the team.Todibo caught laughing during the minute of silence, offers apologyVan De Ven should recover from a hamstring injury in mid-January, but Romero is known for his unpredictable behaviour. Therefore, it would not be surprising if Tottenham try to hire the Frenchman who played for Barcelona, Schalke and Benfica in the previous three years. Tottenham conceded nine goals in the first ten rounds and as many as 13 in the next seven. An indicator that they need another serious defender if they want to run the race for the title to the very end.##NAJAVA_MECA_7750287##
