Tottenham and Sampdoria have reached an agreement over a loan move for Harry Winks according to the latest reports.
The 26-year-old Tottenham midfielder who has not been in Conte’s plans was initially hesitant to move abroad, preferring to stay in the Premier League.
A number of clubs have expressed tentative interest but there was nothing concrete, and with time running out, Winks is now willing to consider Sampdoria’s offer, and talks are progressing.
Following the additions of Yves Bissouma and Rodrigo Bentancur this calendar year, the former England international has fallen down the pecking order at Tottenham and will continue to struggle for regular playing time this season.
Fabrizio Romano confirmed that a loan deal has been agreed between the two clubs after the player accepted the offer from the Italian outfit. He also claimed that the deal will be completed in the next few days.
Winks will arrive in Italy early ‘next week’, according to Gazzetta dello Sport (via Inside Futbol), to undergo a medical examination by Sampdoria. He will then sign a loan agreement with the Serie A club.
The report claims Sampdoria could even give Winks his Serie A debut against Lazio on Wednesday evening.
Winks’ arrival at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium would be Sampdoria’s fourth loan signing of the summer, following the arrivals of Napoli’s Nikita Contini, Pisa’s Maxime Leverbe, and Roma’s Gonzalo Villar.
