Tottenham are living up to their reputation of being notoriously late movers in the transfer market.
Serge Aurier's arrival in north London was announced earlier today, while deals for Barcelona's Andre Gomes and Swansea City forward Fernando Llorente are edging ever closer.
Daniel Levy strikes again, but will he ever recognise that his penchant for late deals harms Tottenham's early season form?
Fulham may have missed out on Jota and Dwight Gayle, but they have managed to capture Yohan Mollo, a free agent after being released by Zenit St Petersburg a few days ago.
CONFIRMED: Yohan Mollo joins #FFC in a deal which could see the player at the Club for the next two years âï¸
