The former Lyon man will offer the Tottenham boss the freedom to be more flexible with his formations, tactics and team selections. He has the quality and the experience to make an immediate impact.

According to the report, “Tottenham have made initial inquires regarding signing Memphis Depay this summer. The Barcelona forward is available, as he is out of favor at the Camp Nou stadium club under Xavi. According to Sport, Spurs and Barca are negotiating a loan deal for centre-half Clement Lenglet. During those negotiations, Spurs also asked about Depay’s availability. Manager Antonio Conte may see him as the ideal backup to the likes of Harry Kane and Son Heung-min. Depay is willing to leave this summer, with Barca seeking £17.2 million.”

The Spurs will have to come up with the right proposal to convince Depay to join the club.

If Tottenham can agree on a fee with Barcelona, the deal should be easy to complete.

The Catalan giants are preparing to sell their forward should they receive right offer for him.

Good signing for Tottenham?

If Tottenham and Conte are seriously considering a forward, Depay could also prove to be a smart option.

Memphis Depay has all the skillset required to be a success story at Tottenham. Therefore, it makes sense for Antonio Conte to step up his attempts to bring the Netherlands forward to Premier League side.

Tottenham fans would certainly love to see him arrive at the club.

It will be interesting to see where the player ends up this summer.
