'Zero pressure' for high-spending Spurs - De Zerbi

[Getty Images] Tottenham boss Roberto de Zerbi says his club's transfers bring "zero pressure" as he explained an argument with an Arsenal -supporting taxi driver. On Thursday, the Italian teased an unnamed "bomba" signing as he continues his pursuit of Manchester City attacker Savinho , having already spent a club record £237m in the transfer window. Having first broken the club record to sign Matheus Fernandes for £85m from West Ham , Spurs then broke it again days later by signing £100m midfielder Sandro Tonali from Newcastle . Asked whether spending brings pressure, De Zerbi replied: "Zero pressure. You know why? Because one day a taxi driver in London stopped me to congratulate me on the transfer market. He said: 'Hey, you are spending a lot of money.' "I said: 'But who are you a fan of?' Arsenal. You have spent the money for a long time in the past three or four years. " Manchester City , Liverpool , Chelsea , Arsenal, to stay at the top of the table, they have spent money. If you want to compete, now, we need to bring top players, like we are doing." Spurs have also signed Jan Paul van Hecke for £52m from Brighton , along with free-transfer signings Marco Senesi from Bournemouth , Andy Robertson from Liverpool and Martin Dubravka from Burnley . When further pressed on how ambitious Spurs can be, he said he would answer the question when the "transfer market closes". Adding about his comments about a shock signing: "Bomba in Italian is different from bomb in English. I said we have to complete the transfer market. I think Tonali, Matheus Fernandes, Senesi, Robertson are bomba. For me, they are top players." He further explained he is not taking risks with the fitness of James Maddison and Matheus Fernandes as they missed an open training session on Friday before Saturday's friendly against Chelsea at Sydney's Accor Stadium.
