Tottenham 'target trio of defenders' but 'Clement Lenglet is NOT one of them'... as Ange Postecoglou's transfer plans are REVEALED ahead of James Maddison's £40m deal

Clement Lenglet is not one of Tottenham's priority defensive targets and the club are not advancing on the deal with Barcelona yet, it has emerged.

The 28-year-old spent last season on loan at Spurs from Barcelona and made 35 appearances.

But it is understood that their new focus is on three main targets: Bayer Leverkusen's Edmond Tapsoba, Wolfsburg's Micky van de Ven, and Fulham's Tosin Adarabioyo.

Fabrizio Romano announced the development, naming the first two in his tweet.

A couple of weeks ago, Mail Sport's Simon Jones was ahead of the curve in revealing that Adarabioyo, 25, was set to leave Craven Cottage after failing to agree new terms and that Spurs were interested in him.
