Spurs getting rid of three defenders, others on the unwanted list too

Daniel Levy has only two days to find a new home for his players
So far so good. Tottenham started their life without Harry Kane with a draw and two wins. They stumbled on the opening day against tricky Brentford (2-2) but then managed two great victories, against Manchester United and Bournemouth, all without their main player, who in the meantime continued to score goals, but in Germany, with Bayern Munich. What is more convincing for the fans is the fact that Spurs are playing likeable and attacking football, and all that even without the new striker. Chairman David Levy is yet to spend the 100 million euros he got from the Bavarians…

But new coach always means that some players will move to the bench, while others will be surplus to requirements, so Levy also has two days to get rid of the unwanted footballers. On top of the list surprisingly is Eric Dier. The England international is out of favor with coach Ange Postecoglou, especially since the arrival of Micky van der Ven from Wolfsburg. Clearly the best player out of the other outcasts, with biggest potential fee, but Dier would like to remain in the club and go as free agent next season, since this is the last year of his contract.
Other players are Giovani Lo Celso, Tanguy Ndombele, Davinson Sanchez and Sergio Reguilon. The Spaniard has played his last game for Tottenham in 2022 and was subject of interest for Manchester United, who are in left-back crisis. Ten Hag needs a solution and Reguilion is an option, but also Barcelona’s Marcus Alonso. Apart from the Red Devils, Fulham is also interested in the Spaniard, as well as in Davinson Sanchez, but it’s unlikely that any of those players will start tonight against the Cottagers in the ELF Cup. An unlikely candidate for Ndombele is PSG. The Parisians have called Levy in the last three transfer windows to ask about the Frenchman, but with a new coach and a bunch of new players, they will hardly to that again. Ndombele spent time on loans with Lyon and Napoli. The Neapolitans also used Giovani Lo Celso and are still interested in him, so a deal might be agreed. The Argentinian has spent the last two seasons on loan in Villarreal.
