Tottenham Hotspur have been offered the chance to bring Tomas Soucek to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the summer transfer window.

What's the talk?

That's according to a report by Football Insider, who claim that, following a breakdown in his contract renewal talks with West Ham United, the central midfielder's agents have now offered Tottenham - who had already been credited with an interest in the Czech Republic international this summer - the chance to sign the 27-year-old.

The report goes on to state that a source has revealed it is extremely likely the former Slavia Prague star secures a £40m move away from the London Stadium in the coming months, as Soucek's relationship with David Moyes is believed to have completely deteriorated as a result of his failed talks over a new deal in east London.

Conte's "dream" signing

Considering just how impressive Soucek has been for West Ham over the past two and a half years, the suggestion that Fabio Paratici now looks to have been given the green light to move for the midfielder is undoubtedly fantastic news for the sporting director and Antonio Conte alike.

Indeed, over his 38 Premier League appearances during his first full campaign in England, the £40.5m-rated talent proved just how deadly he can be in an attacking capacity, scoring ten goals, registering one assist and creating two big chances for his teammates, as well as taking an average of 1.7 shots and making 0.5 key passes per game.

The £67k-per-week midfielder also impressed in metrics more typical of his position, making an average of 1.6 interceptions, 2.1 tackles, 2.7 clearances, 31.9 passes and winning 9.6 duels - at a success rate of 54% - per fixture.

These returns saw the 27-year-old average a quite remarkable SofaScore match rating of 7.16, ranking him as Moyes' second-best performer in the top flight of English football - playing a key role in West Ham securing a sixth-place finish in the league.

Furthermore, Declan Rice is clearly a huge fan of his central midfield partner, with the England international stating of Soucek last year:

"He is so good, I played against him against the Czech Republic for England and I knew then it was going to be a big game and now to have him next to me is when you realise how much he actually does: He runs, he is strong, he is athletic, good in the air and he gets in the box. He does everything you want a midfielder to do.

"When we played Manchester United he ran 17km in the game, 17k! All the lads are like 'that's not normal Tom!' Honestly, he's unbelievable, and this season it's no doubt he's going to be our player of the year and he absolutely deserves it, he's been unbelievable."

As such, considering the fact that one of Conte's primary targets in the summer transfer window is reported to be the signing of an all-action centre mid, it would very much appear as if the player Moyes dubbed a "manager's dream" would be exactly this for the Italian.
