Under Nuno Espírito Santo, Tottenham fans watched on in despair at how poorly their team looked.

The football was dull, Harry Kane was isolated and the midfield was non-existent. However, the arrival of Antonio Conte has been a turning point and a game-changer.

Bringing the Italian to north London was a coup but Daniel Levy and the club’s passionate fan base are already seeing the fruits of his labour.

Conte has transformed Spurs, taking them from a laborious tedious football team to one to be reckoned with.

They will be back in the Champions League next season and with Kane and Heung-min Son in their ranks, anything would appear possible.

They are one of the most feared duos in the country right now but how could you make that forward line even better?

Finding someone to play alongside or act as second fiddle to Kane has been a difficult task for a while now but there are few better on the continent at playing in a two-pronged attack than Lautaro Martinez.

The Inter star struck up a devastating partnership with Romelu Lukaku at the San Siro and there is still a chance he moves to Spurs this summer according to reports.

Capable of thriving under Conte too, a move would seem a no-brainer.

Every one of the top clubs will be searching for Manchester City’s answer to Erling Haaland over the next few months but in Martinez, Tottenham would have someone who could run him pretty close in the goals department.

Throughout 2021/22, the £70m talent found the net on 25 occasions with 21 of them coming in Serie A.

Described as a “machine” by reporter Roberto Rojas, he’s also been “straight up fire” in Italy this season according to Eurosport reporter Siavoush Fallahi, so there is every reason to believe he’d do well at this level.

A clinical goal scorer with the best part of his playing still ahead of him, this would be a landmark deal, one that could reverberate around the Premier League in a similar fashion to Haaland.

Levy and Fabio Paratici simply have to settle a deal for the tricky attacker this summer.
