But things have not improved since the window slammed shut as Spurs suffered back to back home defeats at the hands of Southampton and Wolves.

Their poor form has seen them drop to eighth, seven points adrift of a top four place.

And it is evident Conte wants to add to his struggling squad at the end of the campaign.

As a result, Il Secolo XIX are reporting that Spurs sent scouts to watch players at Fiorentina‘s game against Spezia on Monday.

However, it is unclear which individuals the Lilywhites were monitoring in the Italian clash.

Goals from Krzysztof Piatek and Sofyan Amrabat handed Fiorentina a 2-1 victory as they kept alive their slim hopes of Champions League qualification.

And midfielder Amrabat is someone who Spurs were linked with throughout January – although a deal never materialised.

Tottenham may well be eyeing up the Moroccan international as a potential summer target.

His goal against Spezia was his first of the season in 13 appearances.

Meanwhile, Spurs’ director of football Fabio Paratici is under increasing pressure to deliver for the club after they missed out on a couple of key targets in January.

The North London side were edged out of their pursuit of Adama Traore as he returned to Barcelona.

And then Liverpool hijacked their deal for Porto midfielder Luis Diaz.
