Tottenham supporters have got so much time for talk of a brand new, shiny centre-back coming into the club, and it’s very rare that they come any bigger or better than Kalidou Koulibaly. The Senegalese sensation is being linked to Spurs from reports in Italy and the fans are losing their minds.

The Napoli man is one who would undoubtedly make a huge difference at Tottenham. At 28-years-old he’s younger than both Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen, although he’s got enough experience to be the senior defender in a partnership with Davinson Sanchez.
The links have come from Corriere del Mezzogiorno’s Campania edition (via the Daily Star) and it’s something that many a Tottenham fan has found themselves in awe with. Bringing the Serie A man in looks like a dream as far as the fans are concerned, but it’s a deal that still has a long way to go before it’s completed.
Will Mourinho fix the defence?
Yes
No

We would have to sign him this month . . . ‘Cos we won’t get him in the summer with no CL . . .

Any chance this could be signed sealed and delivered before the Liverpool game?

Imagine if we actually signed him

Loads of the fans want this to happen, and if it does they’ll all be absolutely delighted.
