By all accounts, Tottenham under the management of Mauricio Pochettino have been improving with each passing season. Premier League runners-up to Chelsea in the recently concluded season and an appearance in the FA Cup semi-final stage displays Spurs’ ability to compete for silverware each campaign.
But eventually, Pochettino will need to start lifting trophies. The Argentine tactician has outstanding talent in the likes of Harry Kane and Dele Alli but will need to add the pieces this summer that may finally put together the championship puzzle.
Betting odds change related to high profile transfer as seen on sport.netbet.co.uk keep changing each passing day, and the club have many options in the coming weeks. We examine five players that could make the difference for Tottenham in the 2017-18 season.
3Michael Keane – Burnley – CB
Pochettino’s defence has the capability to stifle the opposition and keep the match in front of them, but injuries can tear down even the best of strategies and lineups. Spurs may find that the services of Burnley centre-back Michael Keane would be a wise purchase this summer.
The 24-year-old enjoyed a strong season with the Clarets this past year and was called into the English national side as well.
Strong positioning, accurate passing and excellent vision help to make up what Keane would be able to bring to Tottenham in the upcoming campaign.
