Tottenham have sealed a deadline day double move for Juventus duo Rodrigo Bentancur and Dejan Kulusevski – with the latter arriving on loan.
The Serie A giants announced the news on their official Twitter account in separate posts, writing ‘thanks for everything and good luck’ on each one, with Spurs following up on their own account.
The confirmation from Juventus means Spurs have finally sealed their first business of the window after seeing a handful of targets escape their clutches – with boss Antonio Conte frustrated by the failure to sign Adama Traore and Luis Diaz.

The pair arrive at Spurs having rubbed shoulders with some of the best talent in football and their winning mentality will be a huge boost to boss Antonio Conte, who has been desperate to freshen up his squad.
Kulusevski’s deal will be a loan until the end of the season with the option to make the move permanent for £30million.
Bentancur, meanwhile, joins on a four-year contract after a successful spell in Turin that saw him win five trophies – including three straight Serie A titles, making a total of 181 appearances.
