Here’s a round-up of the latest transfer news surrounding Tottenham Hotspur.
Earlier this week we reported on Tottenham’s links to Issa Diop, Merih Demiral, Kyle Joseph and the possible departures of three members of Jose Mourinho’s squad.
Here’s more transfer news and gossip from the Spurs camp.
Potential signings
Marcel Sabitzer
Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keen on luring RB Leipzig midfielder Marcel Sabitzer to north London, according to the Athletic.
He has been involved in 84 goals in 205 appearances in all competitions to date for the Bundesliga side and has a £30 million valuation.
That figure is one-third of his price tag eight months ago and makes him a viable option considering he is out of contract in June 2022.
However, any supposed deal would be unlikely to occur this window, with die Roten Bullen set to keep hold of the 26-year-old for their European exploits.

Demarai Gray
Tottenham are set to battle with former Spurs boss Andre-Villas Boas, now at Marseille, for the signature of Leicester City’s Demarai Gray.
The Daily Mail suggests the French side has held talks with the winger. Marseille now lead a four-way contest, including the likes of Monaco and Benfica.
The Englishman has made just one Premier League start all season and has mostly been playing for Leicester’s development squad.
He has been in fine form there, however, scoring three goals and providing an assist in four Premier League 2 matches.

Milan Skriniar
Spurs’ hopes of landing Inter Milan’s prized-centre-back Milan Skriniar seem to be over. The defender has told Inter’s official website he is committed to the Nerazzurri.
The defender has been highly regarded for some time and has been a regular starter since Diego Godin’s departure over the summer.
Skriniar’s valuation is reportedly £55 million and Tottenham may favour a cheaper alternative anyway – unless a major sale takes place (see below).

Potential departures
Madrid make reported £100 million offer for Son Heung-min
Tottenham talisman Son Heung-min is a £100 million target for Real Madrid, according to Spanish outlet Defensa Central.
The South Korean has been in terrific form and been involved in 24 goals this term from 25 appearances in all competitions. That comprises 16 goals and eight assists.
The valuation is a staggering one for the Tottenham forward – but some Spurs fans believe it’s insufficient.

Danny Rose
Danny Rose could be heading out of north London and making his way to West Brom, according to reports from Sky Sports presenter Kaveh Solhekol on the Transfer Show (05/01/21 at 7:50 pm).
The 30-year-old full-back has been left out of the side’s senior squad this term, only playing twice for the the development team.

Dele Alli
According to the Telegraph, Paris Saint-Germain hope to lure Dele Alli to the French capital on loan.
The French side reportedly failed with three previous bids for the Englishman. However, they remain keen on landing the 24-year-old.
The Parisians, now with former Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino at the helm, may fancy their chances of reuniting the duo.
The midfielder has started rarely this term and could favour a move to boost his hopes of making England’s squad for the Euros.
Jack Clarke
According to the Daily Mail, Spurs forward Jack Clarke is a target for Stoke City.
The former Leeds attacker has been linked with the Potters, who hope to secure promotion back to the top flight.
Clarke has made two senior appearances for Spurs this term. A move to Stoke would help him gain more first-team minutes to aid his progression.
