It is certainly no secret that the January transfer window will be crucial for Anže Postekoglou and Tottenham Hotspur.
Despite the promising start Postecoglou has had at the helm of the club, injuries and suspensions have often wiped out the momentum.
After another incident of indiscipline that angered Postecoglou this weekend, Tottenham will need reinforcements in January.
For a long time it was thought that another central defender would be the club’s priority in January, and it probably needed one in the summer.
However, ahead of a busy month ahead, the Daily Mail has now provided a key update.
Jean-Clair Todibo was thought to be Tottenham’s number one choice for January, but new information has reinforced that move.
According to the Mail, Todibo is keen to join Tottenham and the Postecoglou project in January.
Furthermore, the information confirms that Spurs will target three signings, with a centre-forward and a striker also on the agenda.
Considering how well the 23-year-old Todibo has done with Nice in Ligue 1 this season, his arrival could be very positive.
Tottenham are preparing such an interesting project, but they still lack the profiles to make it happen.

Although the players coming to north London will be important, maybe some of them could go the other way.
Eric Dier, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Hugo Lloris are the first names that come to mind.
All of them have been very important in recent years, but now they play a very small role in the progression of Postecoglou’s team.
It is not clear whether the arrivals would depend on the departures of the players, but Spurs would certainly benefit from moving players they don’t seem to need in the long term.
Such is Tottenham’s luck this season, another of their stars is now a big doubt ahead of this week’s game against Everton, which underlines the need for those January signings for Ange Postecoglou.
It’s certainly very good that Todibo would want to join, and at a price of around £40m, it seems like the deal would be quite favourable.
Spurs fans are now hoping for an exciting month that will continue to mould this squad in Postecoglou’s image.
