If we can sign one of the RBs and one of the CBs. That would be massive. Take Atal and Dias if I had to chose

It has become apparent over the course of the season that the North London club is in desperate need of defensive reinforcements due to a number of “ridiculous” goals conceded (per The Guardian).
In the Premier League, Spurs have shipped 32 goals in 25 games so far this term, with only Chelsea conceding more in the top six (per BBC) and fans continued to show their pleasure over the players that were linked.
No issues with all of those ??

What do we think?
It is clear to gauge from the Spurs fans’ responses that they are delighted with the players which Jose Mourinho is reportedly interested in bringing to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
One player in particular who seems to have caught the imagination is Nice’s Youcef Atal, who has impressed with a 7.15/10 average rating for his Ligue 1 club this term (per WhoScored).
