Tottenham appear likely to sign both Giovani Lo Celso and Ryan Sessegnon on deadline day, but their move for Juventus striker Paulo Dybala looks to have fallen through.
Real Betis attacker Lo Celso and Fulham's Sessegnon are both reportedly due for medicals at Tottenham on Thursday after deals were agreed between the clubs.
Dybala's protracted move from the Serie A side is proving more tricky, owing to an issue with the player's image rights and reports of Juventus looking to pull the plug on the move with the 5pm deadline approaching.
It would be a real statement of intent if Spurs could get all three deals concluded and would fall in line with boss Mauricio Pochettino's demands for them to "act like a big club" following their move into a new stadium last season.
The Champions League finalists have already broken their transfer record once this summer with the £65million capture of France international Tanguy Ndombele, while spending £10m on Leeds' Jack Clarke, who is back at Elland Road on loan.
Lo Celso has been a summer-long target for Spurs and they are finally expected to get their man for a fee around £55m.
The Argentina international scored 17 goals for Betis last season and is reportedly keen to work with his compatriot Pochettino in the Premier League.
Spurs' pursuit of Sessegnon has gone on even longer, as they were interested last summer before the teenager opted to remain with Fulham on their return to the Premier League.
Their relegation back to the Sky Bet Championship has allowed Spurs to swoop this time around and a cash-plus-player deal is thought to have been agreed, with Josh Onomah heading the other way.
Nineteen-year-old Sessegnon is currently nursing a hamstring injury, but that is not expected to present a problem and he will be seen as the club's long-term successor to current left-back Danny Rose, who could still leave before the end of the European window on September 2.
Capturing Dybala would be a real coup and a fee had been agreed with Juventus. However, it has been reported that the Italian giants have pulled out of the move.
The interest in Lo Celso's international team-mate came to light several weeks ago, before Spurs fell behind Manchester United in the race.

His possible move to Old Trafford fell through due to wage demands and the issue of his image rights, which also looked like the main threat to any deal with Spurs.
Pochettino is still hopeful that he can bring another countryman into his squad and will be happy to see the club so busy on deadline day, having not signed anyone in the previous two transfer windows.
