Ange Postecoglou has hinted Celtic rules are in effect within N17 as he aims to give Tottenham a transfer jolt right from the off Parkhead punters hope successor Brendan Rodgers is quick out the blocks north of the border but a fast start was a winter window pre-requisite in Glasgow for Ange.
Postecoglou landed three key men during his trophy-laden stay with the Hoops in the midst of successful seasons. Daizen Maeda, Reo Hatate and Alistair Johnston,12 months later, were game-changing arrivals and is aiming to repeat the trick with Spurs.
The Spurs boss was dealt a further injury blow to his extensive list of casualties, but he craves a new defensive option with centre-back Cristian Romero potentially out for up to six weeks.
Micky van de Ven is on the comeback trail and the jet-heeled Netherlands star could be back in the middle of next month. But top options remain high on Postecoglou's Tottenham wishlist They include Nice star Jean-Clair Todibo, and impressive Fulham defender Tosin Adarabioyo, who is available on a free in the summer.
