I'd say we only need 1 first XI CM and another can be Skipp/Bentancur level for rotation.

That is the way ahead for Emerson.
Tino Livramento at Southampton.

I've highlighted some key parts of your post that are directly contradictory to how THFC tends to operate.
Many perfectly suitable 7/8 out of 10s will move clubs this summer, whilst we will spend the entire off season beating our meat over 9s and 10s, only to then end up going home with a discarded wank sock from Barcelona, Real Madrid, Juventus or some such at quarter to midnight on August 31st...
£40M for a teenager with potential who's 2nd choice to KWP at So'ton and is owned by the Chavs?For now, Livremento would be my 1st option.
I am sure that Spurs are keeping an eye on Livramento but 1) he's ll cost a small fortune, 2) no one seems to know exactly how Chelski's buy-back option will work. Well, here it's said it can be activated in 2023 but it does not explain how that would work out. Can Livramento refuse to re-sign with them? If a 3rd club buys him can Chelski still exercise this buy-back option?
Tottenham set sights on 'mega-money' Livramento deal
Football Insider has learned that Southampton sensation Tino Livramento is a target for Tottenham and their recruitment chief Fabio Paraticiwww.footballinsider247.com
Tottenham transfer news: Paratici working on signing Tino Livramento, fee will be 'mega money' - Sources
Tottenham have set their sights on signing Southampton right-back Tino Livramento this summer – and have already made preliminary moves.
The Londoners are in the market for a wing-back who can play on the right side and fit into Antonio Conte’s system after failing to land Adama Traore in January
A Spurs source has told Football Insider that Livramento, 19, is a leading target for recruitment chief Fabio Paratici and he is already making preliminary moves.
Signing a wing-back who can defend and attack with aplomb is a key priority for the recruitment chief and manager Antonio Conte, as it was in January.
Livramento has made a big impact for Southampton since signing from Chelsea last summer in a £5million deal.
He has started 20 Premier League matches among 24 appearances in all competitions, and been the first choice for the entire campaign.
At Spurs, Matt Doherty has started the club’s recent matches at right wing-back after 2021 signing Emerson Royal was previously the number one for most of the campaign.
Neither has completely convinced Conte and it is likely that a one will leave with a new right-sided defender arriving this summer.
Livramento’s asking price has climbed significantly this season after he moved from Chelsea without playing a single first-team match.
As per Calciomercato last Saturday (26 February), Man United are also keen on the teenager.
The Athletic claimed in September 2021 that Chelsea have a £38million buy-back option which becomes active in 2023.
Former Tottenham right-back Alan Hutton told Football Insider that Livramento is destined for a stellar career.
“It’ll be an interesting one to keep an eye on this summer. Livramento is a brilliant talent who would really improve that squad – especially if they’re looking to play with wing-backs.
“But it’s going to cost them mega-money, that’s for sure.”
