Reports have linked Tottenham with a move for several new players in this transfer window.
They should make a number of additions to their squad as Nuno Espirito Santo looks to start his managerial reign with a bang and they are also expected to offload some of their current players.
Spurs have underachieved in the last two seasons after reaching the final of the Champions League in 2019.
They had expected to build on that success under the management of Jose Mourinho, but it never happened.
Some of the players who have failed to deliver in the last year have now been told to find a new home.
The Athletic reports that the club has told Erik Lamela, Serge Aurier and Moussa Sissoko that their services are no longer required.
The trio have been at the club since at least 2016 and was a part of the squad that reached the final of the UCL in 2019 as well as the Carabao Cup last season.
Lamela has been at the club since 2013, but the Argentinian lacks the consistency to make a huge impact at the Tottenham Stadium.
Aurier has a year left on his current deal and would likely play behind Matt Doherty this season, so the club has chosen to cash in on him.
Sissoko joined them from Newcastle in 2016 and has been a mainstay in their squad since then.
However, he might struggle to play under Nuno Santo and the club is looking to make some money from his sale this summer.
🎼always bring lamella with you
I dont think Lamela should leave. He is the quality we need in squad players. What we need is a manager who knows when to use them. Bringing a player like him on, only when the first choice is not on song is what is needed.
Sanchez should be first out the door, based on past performance. I’d certainly keep Lucas Moura, though–and Toby if something can be worked out. Dele is at least talking like a man and deserves one last chance. If he’s just blowing smoke (again) he can be got rid of in January. I’d get rid of Bergwijn, too, if anyone will take him.
Told they can go doesn’t mean they will actually go.. Players that we try and offload are like rubber balls. They keep bouncing back.
Love how Bruce Grove brings that great Web page in line with spurs Web with the ground breaking ‘report’ stories
The Hateful Eight. ✨
Aurier, Doherty, Dier, Davies, Winks, Lamela, Sissoko and Bergwijn can all go as far as I’m concerned. They’re all crap.
Yes Dier should have been first on the list.
I agree, I will be sad to see Toby go but it’s time for him to move on. I hope he finds a club in Europe where he can maybe win a couple of trophies at. He was mustard and its sad to reflect on the fact he would be leaving Spurs without a single medal worth having.
Who in their right mind would sign Erik runs about a lot?
Sissoko always amazed me. Even when he was supposedly good he was a bag of Bull. . Winks and Dier? Send them back to Clown College.
Toby was one of our best players last year…yes he will need replacing but I’d be inclined to keep him, be it on the bench, with new players coming in transitioning – as for Winks, Sissoko, Pamela and Dier, please…open the door and shut it behind you…
As long as Dier and Sissoko go I’m fine.
Especially Dier he was at his season wrecking best last season.
Out: Winks, Sissoko, Lamela, Aurier, Dier
Wouldn’t care if they left: Davies, Sanchez, Moura, Doherty, Toby?
Jeez it doesn’t leave much does it?
Edit. Dele can also go
There’s a few more I’d lime to add to that list
That should raise £5.99 and a pack of Haribo then.. good to get them off the wage bill though. Now make it a round tenner and sell both Dier and Winks the most overrated pieces of sh## I’ve ever seen.
See ya
