Spurs are reportedly “set to miss out” on Wonderkid as the team moves quickly to finalize a deal.

For him, a large club has moved.

Ange Postecoglou’s team, Tottenham, is unlikely to capture the highly-tipped wonderkid since another club has agreed to a January deal before them.

Spurs’ busy transfer window continues.

In addition to bringing in attacking midfield maestro Timo Werner on loan from RB Leizpig with a buyout option, Spurs also completed a £25 million permanent transfer for defender Radu Dragusin.

The two additions, which were completed earlier this month, greatly expand Postecoglou’s options as he looks to lead his team to a top four finish and Champions League qualification.

Prior to this month, Tottenham had a severe shortage of depth behind their regular starting eleven, particularly at center back, as both Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero were frequently unavailable.

In sharp contrast to past years under different managers, Spurs chairman Daniel Levy, technical director Johan Lange, Chief Football Officer Scott Munn, and the larger recruitment team pushed rapidly to obtain much-needed January signings.

According to numerous sources, Tottenham is also in negotiations to recruit Antonio Nusa on a buy-to-loan-back contract from Club Brugge. This is comparable to the strategy that brought players like Pape Matar Sarr and Destiny Udogie to north London in previous seasons.

Despite having being active, with the club completing a slew of loan transfers for members of their squad, Spurs are far from finished as deadline day approaches.

Postecoglou is believed to be interested in signing a new midfielder, but much will rely on Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and whether Levy can secure a permanent exit for the Dane this month. Links to Chelsea player Conor Gallagher remain, with rumors suggesting Postecoglou is a big fan of the 23-year-old, but one midfielder Spurs are unlikely to sign is Royal Antwerp wonder Arthur Vermeeren.

Tottenham are “set to miss out” on Vermeeren.

The Belgian has gained admirers at Spurs in recent months, with some sources claiming that Tottenham have set their sights on signing Vermeeren.

The 18-year-old, who has earned a strong reputation for his outstanding performances at Antwerp this season, appears to be on the move abroad. Indeed, according to numerous reports and journalist Graeme Bailey, Tottenham are ready to lose Vermeeren to Atletico Madrid after the La Liga club agreed to a deal for the midfielder.
