Postecoglou talks about how £110K-a-week Tottenham star fits in after £65m signing

Serie A club do not plan to sign Antonio Conte's 'excellent investment' from Tottenham this summer

Ange Postecoglou loves to play a brand of attractive football that can not only keep the supporters on the edge of their seats but also ensure that the players are pushing to get the three points in the best possible way with respect to the match situation.

In his first season in charge of the North Londoners, we have seen how the Australian gaffer loves to operate with a creative outlet, helping the front line.

In the current squad, James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski embody this role. While Madison handles the central side of things, the latter is a versatile option that could express his creative profile on multiple fronts of the game.

Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou has been speaking about possibilities that he can explore to ensure that he can get the best out of the Swede next season. The Australian boss suggests that Dejan brings multiple options with his presence in the team; however, his attributes are more suited to playing in the wide role or in an attacking midfield role.

Spurs have also signed Dominic Solanke in a £65 million deal, and the England international would be a focal point for all the attacks that the £110K-a-week player generates next season. This will not only revamp the offensive structure at White Hart Lane next season but also ensure that Dejan has more creative facets going into the game.

Spurs Boss hints at wider role for Dejan Kulusevski

The good thing about Deki is that he can play that attacking midfield. I think the reason for us why we signed Dom, and hopefully, Richy should be ready as well, is that we want to have a player through that area who is a bit more accustomed to that role. Deki has done a great job for us but I think his strengths and attributes are more in that attacking midfield or wide role. I think he is really developing and has had a really good pre-season for us and hopefully, it gives us some more flexibility and potency through the middle when he is playing because he can get into those scoring areas.
