Spurs are among the first candidates to sign RC Lens defender Abdukodir Khusanovaccording to GiveMeSport, but they face stiff competition from the likes of Premier League champions Man City as they battle for the Uzbekistani’s signature.

Indeed, it is believed Kolo Muani expresses interest in joining Tottenham after ‘initial talks’but it is unclear whether these talks were conducted between the clubs or with the players’ representatives.
The Lilywhites also have a significant advantage over Juve’s other rivals, as they are willing to negotiate a buyout clause, while the Old Lady only want Kolo Muani on an outright loan as things stand.
In light of these developments, Postecoglou is clearly pushing for Spurs to act quickly and get a deal done for the striker, with Tuesday seen as a key day in the race for his signature as more suitors are circling.

If Tottenham decide to activate a potential future purchase option, the price PSG want is reportedly around 50 million pounds.
