Tottenham are actively streamlining their squad by offloading players who are not part of their future plans.
One such player is Troy Parrott, who is set to join AZ Alkmaar after Tottenham agreed a deal with the Dutch side for his transfer.
This move is intended to bolster Alkmaar’s squad as they gear up for a title challenge next season, following their fourth-place finish in the previous campaign.
As reported by Football London, Parrott is set to return to the Netherlands, joining AZ Alkmaar on a permanent deal.
The Dutch club will pay €8 million (£6.7m) for the 22-year-old striker, who has reportedly already travelled to the Netherlands for his medical.
Despite Parrott’s hopes of securing a spot in Ange Postecoglou’s first-team plans at Tottenham, the club decided against offering him that opportunity.
Parrott had an exceptional loan spell at Excelsior Rotterdam last season, scoring 17 goals and providing 5 assists in 32 appearances across all competitions.
Parrott joined Tottenham in 2019, signing his first professional contract and making his senior debut later that year. However, limited first-team opportunities at Spurs led to multiple loan spells, allowing him to showcase his talent outside the Lilywhites.
The move to AZ Alkmaar provides Parrott with a fresh start and the chance to continue his impressive form from the previous season.
