Former Tottenham boss Tim Sherwood has praised Spurs' change of approach in the transfer market this summer, citing the influence of Antonio Conte on changing the club's approach in order to ready the squad for Champions League football.
This summer has seen a change of approach, with a host of deals completed during June and July seeing five first team players come in to the club. Free transfers have been sealed for Ivan Perisic and Fraser Forster, while a combined £78.5 million has been spent on Yves Bissouma and Richarlison.

Tottenham could hand Chelsea transfer boost with Depay deal
After a succession of big moves already this summer, Tottenham are reported to still be in the hunt for big names to bolster their squad ahead of next season, with Barcelona's Memphis Depay reportedly being lined up.
According to Sport, via Sport Witness, Spurs have moved forward in their pursuit of the former Manchester United man and have 'officially taken the step' to sign the forward after months of rumours. The rumours could have ended after the signing of Richarlison was secured, but Antonio Conte and the club's hierarchy appear to be pushing forward with a move for the Dutchman.
This move could be a boost for Chelsea in their current pursuit of Sevilla's Jules Kounde, with it being reported that Barcelona were looking to use the 28-year-old Depay as a makeweight in their moves to sign the French centre-back.
