Mauricio Pochettino wants four new players as Tottenham target Ross Barkley and Papa Chiekh Diop

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino has revealed he wants four new players before the transfer deadline.

Spurs are yet to make any new signings this summer but are closing in on a deal for Davinson Sanchez.

The initial fee is understood to be around £27million, but that could rise to a club-record depending on appearances and achievements.

Sanchez has agreed personal terms on a five-year deal and now Pochettino has set his sights on further deals.

The Tottenham boss said: "I want four players. It's possible yes but it's not easy."

Asked about the Sanchez deal, Pochettino responded: "We expect to sign some players. That is our aim."

Spurs are targeting both Ross Barkley and Papa Chiekh Diop.

Meanwhile, Kevin Wimmer is free to complete a £15million move to West Brom once Sanchez's move to Tottenham is confirmed.
