Mauricio Pochettino has indicated that he is still hopeful of seeing Tottenham Hotspur making a transfer splash in the winter transfer window, amid Spurs being linked with Arsenal target Malcom.
Tottenham have been the quietest of the top Premier League clubs in this month’s transfer window and not many major players have been linked with a move to Spurs.
There is talk Tottenham are in negotiations with Bordeaux for Malcom, who was on Arsenal’s radar before they eventually pulled out of the chase, and Spurs have reached an agreement over a fee with the Ligue 1 club.
It remains to be seen whether Malcom will make a move to north London this month, but Pochettino is hopeful that Tottenham will be active in terms of signing fresh faces in the window.
But he conceded that he is not too excited and is focusing on the players in his squad at the moment.
