So that will be £115m spent in 24 hours for Tottenham. It's all very un-Daniel Levy-like, isn't it?

With Mohammed Kudus and now Morgan Gibbs-White on the way to north London, both are flair players who live up to Tottenham's attacking traditions. But, crucially, they are players who have Premier League experience.

Indeed, that was the remit for Spurs' recruitment team this summer.

The squad is already packed full of exciting young potential. What Thomas Frank believes it needs is experience.

While Kudus and Gibbs-White are relatively young - 24 and 25 respectively - they are well-versed in the rigours of England's top flight.

Kudus has two full seasons for West Ham under his belt, making 80 appearances, while Gibbs-White has played in the past three Premier League campaigns for Nottingham Forest and had prior experience as a teenager at Wolves.
