The addition of Wilson Odobert from Burnley adds to the signing of Dominic Solanke to deliver the firepower that Ange Postecoglou needs at Spurs.

Postecoglou's big complaint about last season was how he ran out of options in attack when injuries took hold after a sensational start, in which the club went top of the league after going unbeaten in their first 10 games.

Harry Kane was sold to Bayern Munich without a direct replacement being signed and Richarlison suffered a series of injury issues.

But the signing of Odobert, 19, adds an extra two to the attack at Spurs with star under-21 forward Will Lankshear and exciting 17-year-old Mikey Moore to have fringe roles in and around the first team.

Solanke aside, the new signings are all teenagers but Spurs have gone from talented but lightweight in attack to full of options that suit the "Angeball" style of play that fans love.
