‘… Close to completing’ Report claims Spurs’ next deal could include a buyback clause

Japhet Tanganga’s Italian super-agent Roberto De Fanti has been a continuously busy boy this summer, keeping the notion that his boy could be on the move to Serie A. There has been a constant stream of suggestions that Italy is interested in him, and only in this Caughtoffside piece written by De Fanti himself, did we get what one might view as something a little closer to the truth.

Japhet has been niggled by a series of injuries and his game time last season, along with his career progression, was seriously hampered. The preseason will need to demonstrate the 23-year-old is in a position to take his next steps.

Today’s piece in the Mail Online believes that Tanganga is close to tying down a loan deal with AC Milan – one with an obligation to buy – which if accurate, would suggest that Spurs are not really fussed over the lad’s future.

For me, a move anywhere feels premature.
