Tottenham hope their Yves Bissouma problem might be solved by Manu Kone's proposed move from Roma to Inter Milan.
Midfielder Kone is wanted by Inter who are prepared to pay £25million plus add-ons. Roma are holding out for more. They value the France international midfield closer to £45m but talks are open.
New Roma boss Gian Piero Gasperini is prioritising two new wingers, with Leon Bailey of Aston Villa and Jadon Sancho of Manchester United at the top of the wish list.
Bissouma though could emerge as a viable option to plug the void left by Kone in central midfield and intermediaries have made an approach.
