Tottenham Hotspur have got their season up and running over the weekend after putting a convincing three points on the board.
Ange Postecoglou‘s side were able to put any concerns following their opening day draw to Leicester City to one side with an emphatic win over Everton.
Next up for Tottenham is a trip to Tyneside which has not fared them well in recent seasons but there is, of course, the transfer deadline before then.
Spurs have been busy in this summer’s window but the large majority of their business done has focused on player departures.
Daniel Levy and Johan Lange have been able to dramatically cut down the size of the squad with players like Emerson Royal being sold to AC Milan.
But there is still time for Tottenham to add one more player before the end of play on Friday evening.
Tottenham looking to address key position in the transfer window
The latest arrival to land in north London has been Wilson Odobert who seriously impressed James Maddison on his Tottenham debut over the weekend.
However, there could still be room for further additions to arrive with Spurs having focused largely on bringing in young prospects.
Sky Sports journalist Michael Bridge has now claimed there is one position which is still slightly concerning those within the club.
Speaking on the Last Word on Spurs, Bridge has said those at Spurs have said a new backup goalkeeper is of interest.
“Goalkeeper area is an issue. I’m told it’s not a pressing issue, at the moment,” said Bridge.
“Personally. I would like to see more competition for Vicario. When I asked, it is an area which they will be looking at. Whether that gets addressed now or January… I’m leaning more towards January.”
Tottenham need competition for Guglielmo Vicario
Last season, Guglielmo Vicario played every single game in Tottenham’s season with the Italy international making an immediate impact at the club.
However, there have been some concerning moments from the goalkeeper over pre-season with a goal in each of the friendlies against Bayern Munich gifted by Vicario.
Of course, if he is going to make a mistake fans would wish for it to come in the pre-season friendlies.
However, it could well be suggested that the lack of competition may have Vicario sitting comfortably in his spot between the sticks.
If Spurs can add a goalkeeper who can keep Vicario on his toes regarding his spot as the starting goalkeeper then perhaps the Italian’s game will continue to develop after an impressive first season.
