Why it matters
High-profile transfers between rival Premier League clubs are rare and significantly impact team dynamics and competitive balance.
Tottenham Hotspur have agreed on a deal to sign Chelsea centre-back Tosin Adarabioyo as Roberto De Zerbi moves quickly to replace the departing Kevin Danso.
The Athletic's David Ornstein reports that Tottenham Hotspur have agreed a deal with Chelsea for the 28-year-old defender, who is set to move across London. This transfer is another big change to De Zerbi's squad before Tuesday night's deadline.
