Transfer 1+2: North London duo scramble for Fox City core Spurs are interested in signing a new No. 10 this summer

Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly preparing to battle Leicester City's midfield core Madison during this summer's transfer window. The 25-year-old was once again a key player for Foxes in the 2021-22 season, making 42 appearances in all competitions, contributing 13 goals and eight assists. Madison's contract at King Power Stadium is still more than two years away, but there are claims he could become a sought-after commodity in the upcoming transfer market. Arsenal have continued to be linked to the Briton since last summer, but according to British media reports, Tottenham is also interested and they may compete with rivals in North London for his signing. Spurs boss Antonio Conte is a super admirer of Madison who will push his club to sign the Briton during this summer's transfer window. The England international will now do his best for his qualification for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, scoring 40 goals for the Foxes and 28 assists in 160 games since coming here from Norwich City in July 2018.

Tottenham boss Antonio Conte hopes his club will sign a new No. 10 player during this summer's transfer window, allowing Harry Kane to be distracted by the tandem on the offensive end. The England captain struggled to show what it felt like to find the game in the first half of the 2021-22 season, but in recent months he has returned to his best form, playing a leading role in his side's entry into the top four of the Premier League. However, Kane has been less efficient in scoring goals in recent games, yet he has provided five assists in his last three Premier League games, but he has only scored 12 goals in the league this season. Conte said the 28-year-old was "born a striker" and the Italian hopes he will return to closer to the opposing goal next season. Conte told the media: "Harry, he was born a striker. But he has the talent and qualities to play like a No. 10 player. But I prefer to make him the No. 9 because when he's in the box or on the edge of the box, he's good and he's a lot of threat with both feet and headers. But sometimes, when he goes back to create space for Son, Lucas Mora, Belvin, Kuluszewski and the full-backs, he can't use the power of his shots. It's important to have different choices, otherwise you'll be easily predicted. In modern football, your team must be unpredictable. Kane made 43 appearances for Tottenham this season, scoring 22 goals and assisting nine times.

Atletico Madrid have reportedly been told they will need to spend €25 million on this summer's transfer window to sign Tottenham Defender Emerson. The 23-year-old, who only came to Tottenham from Barcelona last August, has been a mainstay for North London this season, making 34 appearances this season, contributing a goal and an assist. However, there has been speculation about his future lately, with the defender saying Atletico would love to sign him in the upcoming market. According to Spanish media, Emerson is not on Tottenham boss Antonio Conte's plans for the 2022-23 season, so the Brazil international could move this summer. Spurs want a transfer fee of €25 million, which is close to the price they paid barcelona last summer, but Atletico are struggling to "significantly lower" prices, the report said. Emerson played the full 90 minutes in Saturday's 4-0 Premier League win over Aston Villa.
