Roberto De Zerbi, the manager of Tottenham Hotspur, has hinted at another significant transfer 'bomba' as captain Cristian Romero departs the club.

The manager also hinted that Djed Spence and Lucas Bergvall could seek regular first-team soccer elsewhere, though he expressed a desire to retain both. 'What I say to you is the same I said to Djed and to Lucas -
