Read our privacy policy Tottenham have finalised a deal for Czech goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky as a stand-in for the injured Guglielmo Vicario, subject to international clearance and a work permit The 21-year-old, who has already earned admiration around a lot of Europe despite just breaking into the Slavia Prague team this season, is expected to cost £12.5m with add-ons. The deal was agreed ahead of Tottenham’s home fixture against Newcastle United, where third-choice goalkeeper Brandon Austin makes his competitive debut for Spurs at the age of 25. The absence of No 1 Vicario, who broke his ankle in the 4-0 win over Manchester City, is seen as one of the major reasons for Spurs' recent drop-off, especially with how specifically Ange Postecoglou uses his goalkeepers.
