Roberto De Zerbi says Tottenham want 'one more player' amid Cody Gakpo interest

Spurs are understood to be keen to sign the Liverpool forward, and are expected to intensify attempts to sign the Dutchman in the final days of the transfer window.“I didn't expect a transfer window like we have done,” De Zerbi told reporters on Friday.“I think we can do one player more in one specific position.“Yesterday we went to dinner with the owners, Johan [Lange, sporting director] and Vinai [Venkatesham, chief executive] and we spoke about this.“All of us are on the same page and a very good connection.”Spurs are expected to be busy until Tuesday’s 11pm deadline, with players who are keen to leave still likely to depart.De Zerbi continued: “I've been very clear with all the players: if you speak clearly you can't expect surprises.“The players who wanted to leave have left. We maybe have some players who want to leave and they are waiting, we are waiting for an offer.Read More“You have to feel proud to stay here. It's an emotional project we are building with new players.”One player who could leave is Pape Matar Sarr, who has attracted interest during the transfer window and is yet to feature during the first two games of the season.De Zerbi said: "Pape is good [fitness-wise]. We have to see in the last days of the transfer market what can happen with him."
