5. Youri Tielemans

Tottenham have had quite a bit of success with Belgian players as of late, and could look to add another one today. Anderlecht midfielder Youri Tielemans would be quite a coup for Spurs on Deadline Day.

Think of him as a younger, lesser version of countryman Mousa Dembele. He has the ability to move effectively between both the defensive and attacking midfield spots for his club.

He might not be ready to come in and take the Premier League by storm, but he’d be a really useful bench player for Pochettino. The fact that he already has Champions League experience also increases his value for the club.

Tielemans could likely be had for a transfer fee of somewhere around 15 million pounds. That’s a price range that even Levy can feel comfortable with.
