      Trossard, 28, has been frozen out by the Italian after reportedly being involved in a training ground bust up with a team-mate.
      And Spurs would like to profit on the situation by sealing a cut-price deal.

      The informal bid was turned down by Seagulls chiefs, with Tottenham yet to lodge another.

      Trossard has just 18 months left on his contract at the Amex Stadium.
      Agent Josy Comhair revealed that communications between his client and De Zerbi have broken down and a January move will be “beneficial for both parties”.
      But the Brighton gaffer hasn’t ruled out a return to the fold for his skilful attacker.
      He said: “I want to be clear about Trossard. I’m sorry for the situation. I don’t think I’ve made a mistake with him. The people inside Brighton know very well the situation.

      ‘I’m fine with myself and I’m ready to open the doors for him, because he’s a good guy and a very important player for us.
      “He changes the team, but he has to understand and to work with my attitude, in my way, because I am the coach, I decide the rules inside the dressing room, only this.
      “I’m honest, I’m very clear. When I want to say something I speak inside the family and our family is the dressing room.
      “I don’t want to speak about the communication of his agent, because I don’t know him, I know only Leo.
      “I’m ready to listen to him without a problem, because this situation is important.
      “It’s not a bad situation, it’s a great situation, because if he learns, if we improve our way, we can only improve, and to achieve our dreams there is only one way.
      “To be open to improve and ready to work hard, because we are Brighton, a team of medium level in this competition, so we have to think about the team more than ourselves.”
      Prior to being dropped, Trossard was enjoying a productive season – scoring seven goals and laying on three assists in 16 Prem outings.
      Brighton haven’t struggled for goals since dropping him, however, beating Everton 4-1 before swatting Liverpool aside 3-0.

      Highly rated Hudson-Odoi signed a five-year deal in 2019 after rejecting the opportunity to join Bayern Munich.
      But injury struggles as well as falling out of favour with previous coaches saw him fall down the pecking order, resulting in a loan move to German side Leverkusen.

      The move has been far from a success, with Hudson-Odoi playing just 15 times and scoring just once.
      And according to The Athletic, Hudson-Odoi could look for a new permanent home in the summer once he returns from Chelsea to jump-start his career.

      The report states that Hudson-Odoi could be available for a bargain fee as he’ll be heading into the final 12 months of his contract.
      Chelsea will have to give him a contract extension or run the risk of losing him on a free transfer.
      In January 2024, Hudson-Odoi can negotiate a pre-contract with foreign clubs.
      If the player would like to stay in England, he’d have to wait until the end of June that year to strike a deal.

      The move will see Danilo team up with his former Palmeiras teammate, and new Forest fans’ favourite, Gustavo Scarpa at the City Ground.
      He will become Forest’s 24th signing since they gained promotion to the Premier League in the summer.
      The youngster has attracted interest from Europe’s big hitters since he inspired Palmeiras to win back-to-back Copa Libertadores titles in 2020 and 2021.
      Forest will now turn their attention to trying to pull off their biggest statement signing of all, Roma’s Italian international forward Nicolo Zaniolo.

      The attacker arrived from Inter in 2018 and has gone on to make almost 100 Serie A appearances since.

      Talks have already taken place over an extension, but there has been “no progress” during the negotiations.
      And his performances and general attitude of late has allegedly “irritated” Roma’s top brass.
      He was originally valued at around £44m by Roma, but with his contract dwindling, that is said to have dropped significantly.
      Zaniolo, whose goal clinched the Europa Conference League crown last season, has scored two and provided three assists in his 17 appearances this term. More

      The Three Lions international penned a five-year deal at Stamford Bridge, which would keep him at the club until the summer of 2027.
      However, like his Chelsea team-mates, Sterling has been shy in front of goal.

      Ukrainian Mudryk could get started before Sterling comes back from injury too, which could dent his chances of regaining a starting spot.
      Boss Graham Potter said on the January signing: “He’s exciting, one-versus-one, can threaten the goal. I think our supporters already like him.
