Spurs want to sign two players from the same club, giving them an advantage in the race.

Tottenham is interested in signing both Yannick Carrasco and Jan Oblak from Atletico Madrid, according to the Spanish newspaper Marca.

Spurs have been linked to both players for some time, but the interesting point made in this report is how Spurs’ relationship with Atletico Madrid may help them close these deals.

Spurs and Atletico Madrid have both done a lot of business in recent years. Kieran Trippier, Sergio Reguilon, and Matt Doherty have all moved from north London to Madrid, while Toby Alderweireld did the opposite in 2016.

This positive relationship appears to be critical to the Spurs closing these deals.

Both Carrasco and Oblak would be excellent additions to this Spurs squad.

Carrasco is a wide player who has been performing at a high level for many years, and he can also play as a wing-back when necessary, which is a big plus for Antonio Conte.

Meanwhile, Jan Oblak has long been regarded as one of the world’s best goalkeepers. The Slovenian has been an important player for Atletico Madrid for many years, and he ensured that the club did not miss Thibaut Courtois when his loan spell ended. With Hugo Lloris nearing the end of his career, Oblak could be an excellent long-term replacement for the Frenchman.

It is unclear whether Atletico Madrid will be willing to let go of these two key players. With Tottenham’s interest, they may be willing to do business with a club that has worked its way into their good graces.

These could be two game-changing signings for Spurs, and it’s a situation to keep an eye on as the summer transfer window approaches.
