Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou is hoping to squeeze in one more attacking edition before the transfer window slams shut.
Nottingham Forest winger Brennan Johnson has been heavily linked, but Barcelona youngster Ansu Fati recently emerged as a key target.
However, transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has since reported a Premier League rival has hijacked the move.
Brighton have seemingly won the race to bring Fati to the Premier League, with Romano claiming the 20-year-old will join on loan.
Fati made his Barcelona debut at just 16 years and 298 days in 2019 and has gone on to make 80 appearances in all competitions since.
