Tottenham Hotspur fans have suffered through a quiet transfer window so far, failing to secure the services of any new players for the second part of the 2021/2022 season.
However, respected journalist Alasdair Gold is hopeful that Antonio Conte’s side can acquire the services of Luis Diaz from FC Porto.
Let’s not kid ourselves, this one is a long way off at the moment, with huge progress needed in the next few days before the window shuts. Gold only claims that there’s a ‘growing hope’ Spurs can make a move for the Colombian.
He provided the update on his YouTube channel, saying: “Tottenham are looking to try and bring him to north London. The latest that I understand on that situation is that there’s a growing hope that they might be able to get this deal done – they’re throwing everything at it.”
Should Spurs go all-in for Luis Diaz?Yes
No

The Spurs Express relayed the quote to their followers, with the fans buzzing in the replies.
What the Spurs fans said…
“Please.”
“On my knees.”
“Please God please!”
“SIUUUUUU!”
“I hate myself for getting excited”
“Just when you think you’re out, they pull you back in.”
“WOOO.”
“SO YOU’RE SAYING THERE’S A CHANCE?”
It would be a real statement of intent from Conte and Spurs should a deal materialise, given interest from elsewhere. Fellow Premier League side Liverpool have been after Diaz, so to beat the recent Premier League and Champions League winners to his signature would show Spurs are able to compete with title challengers.
