It's time for the latest episode of Talking Tottenham as our Spurs reporters Alasdair Gold and Ryan Taylor discuss the latest news at the club

Roberto De Zerbi's Tottenham transfer revolution is expected to kick off with the double arrival of Andy Robertson and Marcos Senesi.

The defensive duo are out of contract next month and will leave Liverpool and Bournemouth respectively with Spurs looking set to bring them in to increase the experience and quality in De Zerbi's squad. Left-back Robertson has won everything possible with Liverpool while centre-back Senesi was named the Cherries' player of the season after their fine campaign and sixth-placed finish in the Premier League.

It is set to be a busy summer around the World Cup after De Zerbi made it very clear on Sunday after the victory that kept Tottenham in the top flight that only half of his squad are fit for purpose.

"From tonight we have to start to organise and build a new team. I don't think we have now to change too many players. We have 10, 11, 12 players good enough to stay. Good enough. Like players, especially like people, and then we have to complete the squad with the first level of players," he said.

"First level of players because we suffered too much. I suffered a lot but I think the fans, the club, the board, the players. They suffered too much. We are Tottenham and we can't suffer like this until the last second of the last game to stay up.

"And I will be stronger. I don't want to decide alone because football is a group - sporting director, scouting, CEO - but my target now is finished to stay up. My target is to start the pre-season with the team I have in my dream."

Our Tottenham correspondents Alasdair Gold and Ryan Taylor discussed the expected arrival of Robertson and Senesi as well as what else will happen in the transfer window at the north London club this season in the latest episode of their podcast Talking Tottenham.
