Tottenham Hotspur seem to be going down transfer dead end after transfer dead end this month.
Indeed, Spurs seemingly can’t catch a break in the transfer window at the moment.
Tottenham wanted Randal Kolo Muani, but the PSG ace went to Juventus on loan instead, while Mathys Tel has now rejected a move to Tottenham.
Luckily, there is still time to run in the transfer window, and Spurs do have a few irons in the fire.
However, it seems as though there is another potential target who is set to snub Tottenham.
Tottenham were looking at signing Fikayo Tomori from AC Milan, but the defender seemingly isn’t keen on a move to north London.
Indeed, according to Di Marzio, Tomori wants to stay at AC Milan instead of signing for Tottenham.
Fikayo Tomori wants to stay at AC Milan
According to Di Marzio, Tomori is not open to a transfer to Tottenham and he wants to stay at AC Milan.
Tomori wants to stay at Milan rather than signing for Spurs, and it’s hard to blame him.
Indeed, while Milan aren’t having the best of seasons, they’re still firmly in the race for the Champions League in Serie A and they’ve just made something of a statement signing in the shape of Kyle Walker.
Meanwhile, Tottenham are 15th in the Premier League and they have almost no hope of reaching those European places this season.
The £25m man is set to stay in Milan, and it looks like it’s back to the drawing board for Spurs in terms of searching for a new defender.
Tottenham’s nightmare transfer window
Things aren’t going well on the pitch for Tottenham at the moment, but, somehow, their work off the pitch is almost just as embarrassing.
Indeed, Tottenham have missed out on target after target this month.
The sad reality for Tottenham is that they can’t fish in their usual ponds right now.
Spurs have been established as a part of the Big Six in recent times, and they’ve been able to go for some of the bigger names and prospects in European football.
Unfortunately, at the moment, Tottenham are the 15th-best team in England, and players like Tomori and Mathys Tel won’t want to sign for a side that looks almost destined to finish in the bottom-half of the table.
