      Tottenham sign Joe Rodon in deadline-day transfer after snapping up talented Welsh youngster

      by

      TOTTENHAM have completed their move for Swansea defender Joe Rodon.
      The North London side have been locked in talks hoping to convince the Swans to lower their £18million asking price.

      And Jose Mourinho has finally got his man after having a £7m bid for the Wales international rejected by the Championship club two weeks ago.
      The Swans insisted they valued the 22-year-old at £18m and have been holding out hoping to get top price for the centre-back.

      But Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy was reluctant to go to that price.

      He has already splashed out big this summer bringing in Gareth Bale, Sergio Reguilon, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Matt Doherty.
      Levy was hoping to agree a package which sees an up-front payment in the region of £10m with further instalments of £5m.
      The centre-half is regarded as one of the best talents outside the top flight.

      Jose Mourinho has made it clear he wants to strengthen his options in the centre of his defence after Jan Vertonghen left North London at the end of last season.

      Should the two clubs find an agreement over the next few hours then it is unlikely personal terms would be an issue to sort out.

      Spurs saw a £7m bid for the Wales international rejected by the Championship club two weeks ago.
      But they still retain hope of reaching an agreement before the 5pm cut-off today.
      The Swans have insisted they value the 22-year-old at £18m and have been holding out hoping to get top price for the centre-back.

      But Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has been reluctant to go to that price.
      He has already splashed out big this summer bringing in Gareth Bale, Sergio Reguilon, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Matt Doherty.
      Levy would prefer to come up with a package which sees an up-front payment in the region of £10m with further instalments of £5m.
      Spurs believe that will be enough to tempt Swansea into doing a deal now for Rodon.

      The centre-half is regarded as one of the best talents outside the top flight.

      Dele Alli set to stay at Tottenham and be denied shock PSG transfer as Mourinho has no intention of letting outcast go

      by

      DELE ALLI is set to stay at Tottenham with Jose Mourinho unwilling to let the forward join Paris Saint-Germain.
      England star Dele, 24, has been the subject of two loan bids from the Ligue 1 champions.

      The second was worth £3.5million and a third attempt to prise him from North London could be incoming today.

      But Spurs have no intention of letting him leave – despite falling out of favour with Jose Mourinho.
      Dele has played just 65 minutes of Tottenham’s first two Premier League games of the season.

      He was subbed off at half-time of the 1-0 defeat to Everton and came on with 20 minutes left of the 6-1 thrashing of Manchester United yesterday.
      Mourinho labelled Dele a “f***ing lazy guy” in an episode of Amazon’s All or Nothing documentary series on the club.
      PSG, looking to take advantage, had an initial loan offer of £1.5m rejected by Spurs.
      And the second attempt was knocked back too.

      The French team could come in again on transfer deadline day but it is believed it won’t prove third time lucky.

      Dele came off the bench and scored a penalty in their 7-2 win at home to Maccabi Haifa in the Europa League play-off last Thursday.
      Mourinho praised Dele’s second-half cameo and his attitude in training.
      He said: “I never had a problem with him. Very polite and educated, behaving well and training well.
      “If sometimes I want different things from him on the pitch that’s more about his qualities as his player.
      “He was on the bench, in a team and squad where it’s going to be difficult to play.”
      So it seems that there won’t be any old boys’ reunion for Alli at PSG.
      The French champs have been linked with a swoop for former Spurs star Christian Eriksen, who has struggled at Inter Milan.

      Sessegnon joins Hoffenheim on season-long loan transfer from Tottenham after being pushed down pecking order by Reguilon

      by

      RYAN SESSEGNON has joined Hoffenheim on a season-long loan deal from Tottenham.
      The England Under-21s star only joined Spurs last summer in a £25million deal from Fulham.

      But Sessegnon has found first-team action limited and – despite interest from the likes of Celtic – has opted to head to Germany for the 2020-21 season
      The ex-Cottagers star, 20, featured just 12 times last term – scoring once.
      And Sessegnon hasn’t played a single minute this season, thanks in no small part to the arrival of Sergio Reguilon.
      Hoffenheim confirmed the news of Sessegnon’s loan in a statement on their club website.

      The Bundesliga giants wrote: “Hoffenheim have signed 20-year-old Ryan Sessegnon from Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur.

      “The England U21 international is on loan until June 30, 2021.”
      Sessegnon revealed he opted to move to Hoffenheim thanks to their love of developing youth.

      The winger said: “[The club] stands for the successful training and development of young players.
      “I hope that the change will give me match experience in one of the best professional leagues in the world and I’m looking forward to the games in European competition.”

      Liverpool boast the most valuable squad in world football

      Hoffenheim director of football Alexander Rosen added his delight at the deal.
      Rosen said: “Ryan Sessegnon is a very talented and fast winger with a strong left foot.
      “After the serious injuries suffered by Ermin [Bicakcic] and Stafy [Kostas Stafylidis], both of whom will not be available to us for several months, we were looking for a high-quality addition to our squad.
      “We are very happy to have found one in Ryan.”
      But one man not thrilled with the deal is former Fulham captain Danny Murphy.
      Speaking on talkSPORT, Murphy said: “That’s a strange one for me because a lot was expected of him when he joined.”

      Tottenham star Juan Foyth seals transfer move away to Villarreal on loan after signing new Spurs deal to 2023

      by

      TOTTENHAM defender Juan Foyth has joined Villarreal on loan.
      Foyth has featured sparingly for Spurs under Jose Mourinho and will head out on loan for the rest of the 2020-21 season to secure first-team football.

      Foyth has also signed a one-year extension to his Spurs contract which ties him to the club until 2023.
      However, Marca claims the deal to take the Argentine to Villarreal also includes an option for the Spanish side to buy the player for £13.6million.
      The move will see Foyth link up with former Arsenal manager Unai Emery, who is now in charge of the Spanish side.
      Emery had reportedly identified the 22-year-old centre-back as his main defensive target for the summer transfer window.

      Foyth is expected to be available for Villarreal’s next match against Valencia in two weeks’ time.
      In the meantime, he will join the Argentina squad this week for their World Cup qualifying matches against Ecuador and Bolivia.
      Foyth joined Tottenham from Estudiantes in 2017 and has made 32 appearances for the club.

      Spurs have also agreed to send Ryan Sessegnon on loan to Hoffenheim.

      Boss Mourinho has stated he wants to trim his squad down to 22 outfield players plus goalkeepers after the signings of Matt Doherty, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Gareth Bale, Sergio Reguilon and Carlos Vinicius this summer.
      However, the north London outfit are still on the hunt for a new centre-back before the transfer window closes on Monday.
      A deal for Inter Milan defender Milan Skriniar is looking unlikely at this stage, but Spurs could make a formal offer for Chelsea’s Antonio Rudiger before the deadline.

      Tottenham reject second Dele Alli loan bid from PSG with Mourinho keen to keep star despite row rumours

      by

      TOTTENHAM want to keep Dele Alli – after snubbing Paris Saint-Germain’s second bid to sign him on loan.
      The French giants offered to pay Spurs £3.5million to secure the star’s services for the rest of the season.

      But the North Londoners have no intention of letting him leave – despite him falling out of favour with boss Jose Mourinho.
      Dele has played just 45 minutes of Premier League football this season after being subbed at half-time of Tottenham’s 1-0 home defeat by Everton on the opening day of the season.
      And he was not even on the bench for four of their seven games this term as Mourinho questioned his attitude.

      The Portuguese was also shown calling him a “f***ing lazy guy” in an episode of Amazon’s fly-on-the-ball documentary series.
      PSG, looking to take advantage, had an initial loan offer of £1.5m rejected by Spurs.
      The second improved bid has now also been turned down.
      It is believed to be a season loan only and not with a view to a permanent deal.

      But Spurs expect him to stay – after he came off the bench and scored a penalty in their 7-2 win at home to Maccabi Haifa in the Europa League play-off on Thursday.

      Tottenham will pay just £2.7m for Carlos Vinicius loan transfer as Benfica confirm move with £41m option to buy

      by

      TOTTENHAM will pay just £2.7million as a loan fee for Carlos Vinicius.
      The North London club have secured the signing of the Brazilian striker who will support main front man Harry Kane.

      Benfica confirmed the agreement was all done and Vinicius, 25, will fly to London today to complete his medical and all the paperwork before the official announcement is made.
      Spurs needed to sort out a work permit for the forward because he has no international caps but that was sealed on Thursday.
      The club – who were desperate for a striker this summer – have the option to make the transfer permanent next summer for around £41m.

      Benfica said in a statement: “Sport Lisboa e Benfica – Futebol, SAD informed the Securities Market Commission (CMVM) that it reached an agreement with Tottenham Hotspur for the loan of player Carlos Vinicius until the end of the 2020-21 sports season for an amount of 3 million euros.
      “The said agreement, communicated at 11:56pm on Thursday, includes a purchase option clause in the amount of 45 million euros, to which, if exercised, the amount paid for the loan will be deducted.
      “The agreement is dependent on the signing of the striker’s sports work contract with Tottenham Hotspur.”
      However, speaking after his side’s 7-2 win over Maccabi Haifa to confirm their spot in the Europa League, Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho refused to comment on Vinicius.

      He said: “No, I want you to ask me that question when it’s confirmed.

      “Nobody told me it’s done so I’m going to respect the situation, respect the player, respect Benfica and wait a little bit more.
      “Next time we see each other maybe I’m in conditions to answer.”
      Vinicius only signed for Benfica from Napoli for £15m a year ago but impressed in his debut season with the club.
      The Brazilian scored 24 goals in 47 appearances across all competitions.
      He is understood to have an £89m release clause in his Benfica contract, which runs until 2024.
      But the financial impact of coronavirus and Benfica missing out on Champions League football meant they were open to doing business.
      BRAZIL TO BENFICA
      Vinicius almost quit football aged 22 after failing to break through in the way his junior team-mates Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Barbosa did.
      But after spells with Napoli and Monaco in Europe, he found his best form in Portugal and won the Primeira Liga’s Golden Boot last season.
      Vinicius goes by the nickname V95 – in tribute to his idol Cristiano Ronaldo, as well as his squad number 95 that was chosen because he was born in 1995.
      Amusingly, a quick search on Google reveals V95 is also the name of a penis enlargement cream.
      But there’s nothing small about the 6ft 3ins star, who earned the nickname ‘The Beast’ in Portugal.
