Tottenham Hotspur are making plans for the summer transfer window, with ENIC planning to back Roberto De Zerbi after his demands as a new manager were revealed.
De Zerbi wants the Spurs team to be revealed
After discussions in the past few days, De Zerbi is convinced that he will replace Igor Tudor in the pit immediately, instead of waiting until the summer, the team announced the move on Tuesday evening.
There are probably doubts about whether the Italian is the right man for the job, as Tottenham need a manager who can make an immediate impact, and Lewis Dunk has made it clear that it will take time to get used to the ways of the former Brighton boss.
“If I’m honest, the first few weeks were terrible. I wouldn’t say it was scary, they were desperate. The first meeting when he came in, I was very confused – who to look at, what to listen to, and slowly you take.
“Training changed a lot, we worked on a lot of different things and the first few weeks were a very difficult transition.”
Spurs have just seven games to save themselves from relegation to the Championship, and with just one point in the bottom three, De Zerbi will have to hit the ground running.
He reportedly has a “stay bonus” in his contract and has also sought marquee signings in the form of a new midfielder and centre-back, but Spurs will not pursue a deal for former star Mason Greenwood.

ENIC is planning a three-pronged attack this summer
According to a report from Turkish football, Tottenham are now planning a surprise attack on Galatasaray to sign goalkeeper Uğurcan Çakır, winger Barış Alper Yılmaz, and midfielder Gabriel Sara, after evaluating the late player very much.
Çakır has been targeted with Guglielmo Vicario linked with a move to Inter Milan, while Antonin Kinsky has struggled to make the first XI this season, being withdrawn after just 17 minutes in the Champions League first leg against Atletico Madrid.

Sara, who operates in central midfield, has just earned his first cap for Brazil, and Tottenham have often lacked options in the engine room this season, with the likes of Yves Bissouma, Rodrigo Bentancur and James Maddison spending time on the sidelines.
There is no doubt that Tottenham need to strengthen this summer, but their priority right now is to maintain their Premier League status.
