Tottenham news: Antonio Conte's transfer blow as another Juventus ace drops hint

Antonio Conte has suffered a fresh blow at Tottenham Hotspur after one of the club's senior transfer experts has left the club.

It's the Spurs manager's second transfer blow in a matter of days after the transfer window closed without the club being able to secure a new right wing-back – although he's now been urged to re-position one of his current players to fill that role.

Conte had wanted to bring in a new midfielder and striker during the transfer window, but only Rodrigo Bentancur came in to fill one of those roles, while the club did also secure the signing of Dejan Kulusevski, both from Juventus.

And with the transfer window now closed, another Juve star has dropped a huge hint that he may be set to follow them both to London.

Here are latest Tottenham Hotspur headlines.

Filling the role had been one of Conte's top priorities heading into the window but the club failed to land a suitable player, and Conte has now been urged to try Lucas Moura in the position.

Ex-Spurs player Graham Roberts believes Lucas Moura fits the bill perfectly and can make an impact for Conte's team between now and the end of the season.

Roberts listed three attributes he sees as being key in the wing-back role, and believes Moura has displayed all of them during his time at the club.
