Not only are Spurs looking to sign up Paulo Dybala, the club could also snatch up Philippe Coutinho from under the nose of their long-time rivals Arsenal.

Last night saw reports coming out that the Barcelona man could be heading to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - just hours after Gooners fans got a tad cocky about the prospect of seeing the Brazilian lining up at The Emirates this season.

After signing Antoine Griezmann this summer, Barca are eager to get Coutinho off their books and the Catalan outfit are open to the ex-Liverpool player leaving as part of a permanent deal or a loan deal. Any such loan would cost a whopping £27 million, mind, as Barcelona look to make back some of the £142 million they splashed out on bringing Coutinho to Camp Nou in January 2018.
