Ange reveals Spurs’ transfer deadline ‘reality’... a $110m star headlines those who could exit
Ange Postecoglou admitted before last week’s game against Manchester United that his playing group is “too big as is” and that the “focus” would be on “trimming the squad down”.
“With the outgoings I have very little control over it. My focus has to be on what’s in front of us and who’s training. I’m assuming that as we get closer to the end of the window everything will accelerate.” Put simply, a resolution does not seem close for Ndombele, who signed with Spurs on a club-record £55.4 million fee in the summer of 2019.“Spurs don’t want him, with Postecoglou unimpressed with his timekeeping and general attitude and application, but no interested club has yet been able to come up with a good enough offer,” The Athletic report claimed.
Dier is yet to be included in any of Postecoglou’s squads this season, although the Australian played down that fact when asked about the 29-year-old’s future last week.“We left some players on the bench that are very good players. We need a strong squad, it’s not about 11 players. Postecoglou was asked about the team’s broader transfer plans last week, revealing the priority is on “trimming the squad down”.“We’ve got too big a squad as it is. It affects the training, the players themselves because they all want to play and be involved.
“There’s still areas we can strengthen in all our lines: defensively, midfield, up front. Again that’s not just bringing players in for the sake of it. They have to fit the profile we’re looking at.
