If we are looking for a defensive minded RB who can’t attack, why not play and develop Tanganga? I don’t think I get Takehiro.

Never seen him play, so please correct me, but basing this off of what others are saying.

This seems like we’re paying 20m+ to get an older, non-HG, of what we already have.
 
These are the transfers I'd make if I were Paratici:

Centre-Backs:
IN: Lacroix (25M)
OUT: Sanchez (22M), Dier (13M), Carter Vickers (5M)

Full-Backs:
IN: Aarons (30M), Tomiyasu (17M)
OUT: Aurier (10M), Doherty (5M)

Midfield:
OUT: Winks (17M), Sissoko (1M)

Attack:
IN: Vlahovic (45M), Madueke (20M)
OUT: Kane (130M)

He has played two full seasons at Bologna so is likely a little further along in his development than Tanganga who has been hurt by injuries slowing his development a bit, but it does seem like a very similar type of player, especially if we are using him as a starting defensive-minded RB.

He's a much better player than Tanganga at the moment, Japhet needs a loan. I've seen a good few doubts over Tomiyasu but it's a signing I'd be delighted with. Excellent defender at full back and at CB. Uses the ball very well, not a super attacking fullback. I think people will be delighted with him ten games into the season if we do sign him given the chaos we've had in that position the last few years.
 
Current squad looking like this.

Association trained: Carter-Vickers, Davies, Doherty, Hart, Rose, Whiteman, Rodon
Club trained: Bale, Dele, Kane, Winks, Tanganga

Foreign: Alderweireld, Aurier, Bergwijn, Dier, Fernandes, Gazzaniga, Højbjerg, Lamela, Lloris, Lo Celso, Moura, Ndombele, Reguilón, Sánchez, Sissoko, Son Heung-min, Carlos Vinícius, Gil, Romero, Golini

U21: excluded from squad count

HOMEGROWN : 9 (can only be 8, expect CCV to go)
FOREIGN : 15 (up to 18)

So, we have 3 foreign spots up for grabs. HOWEVER, if Kane, Winks and Tanganga go; we must reduce our foreign player count by 3. Obviously Skipp and Sessegnon could feature as 'regulars' in the senior squad to plug that gap, but going into the season with such a small squad could leave us exposed.

I get what you mean and I would love Tanganga to start for us, seems we are after Tomiyasu because he is a very good passer
 
No point keeping an unhappy player who wishes to leave.
If City can't pay 150m, tell them to include Laporte in the deal, 100m+Laporte will do.
Laporte would not want to come, but it's their job to persuade him.
Romero+Laporte will solve defense problems which have been haunting Spurs for years.
Release Sanchez and Dier ASAP, use Rodon as backup.

I think this is where I come down, too. Solid CB situation, use the money for a young striker. In 5 years we could be much better off.

Nuno prefers a small squad
