Tottenham transfer round-up: £25m+ bid for Spurs target, plus Rashford update
Tottenham continue to be linked with multiple players in the winter transfer window with the club in desperate need of reinforcements.
Ange Postecoglou’s side suffered their 11th Premier League defeat of the season already after losing 2-1 to North London rivals Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday (15 January), with the club sneaking out a multi-million financial document just ahead of kick-off.
As a result, Daniel Levy is expected to sack Postecoglou should Spurs fail to claim three points against Everton at Goodison Park on Sunday (19 January).
Therefore, Postecoglou could no doubt use some new signings. However, with any business unlikely to be done before the clash against the Toffees, all the 59-year-old can do is hope that he is still in charge next week to welcome any potential arrivals.
