Tottenham Hotspur are close to securing a double swoop at Atalanta.

Nuno Espirito Santo is looking to bolster his squad as he tries to make an impression in his first season at Spurs.

Several outlets in the UK and Italy have reported Spurs are nearing deals for Atalanta duo Cristian Romero and Pierluigi Gollini.

Centre-back Romero has been linked with Manchester United and Liverpool in recent weeks after a strong season on loan in Bergamo.

Atalanta will activate a £13million option to sign Romero permanently for Juventus as part of the loan deal, and then sell him onto Spurs.

Goalkeeper Gollini played 32 games for Atalanta last season, keeping 13 clean sheets.

He will provide competition to Hugo Lloris and Joe Hart in the Tottenham goalkeeper department.
