Tottenham Hotspur have arguably been one of the busiest Premier League sides in the transfer window this month.
Tottenham are currently closing in on their fourth signing in the form of Mathys Tel on loan from Bayern Munich, a significant coup for Daniel Levy.
Spurs welcomed both Yang Min-hyeok and Antonin Kinsky at the start of January, and have now added Kevin Danso in addition to Tel.
A relatively strong end to the window, even if another centre-back might still be needed given Radu Dragusin’s injury.
Of course, Min-hyeok has left Tottenham on loan for Queens Park Rangers, a six-month loan which could be invaluable for the 18-year-old in terms of adapting to English football.
And the South Korean might now be followed by another young Tottenham attacker in the next few hours.
Swansea City one of a few sides interested in taking Damola Ajayi on loan
According to journalist Tom Barclay who shared his update on X, there’s been late interest in 19-year-old winger Damola Ajayi.
Given Postecoglou’s injury crisis, Ajayi has often appeared on the bench for Spurs’ first team recently, even playing a significant role against Elfsborg in the Europa League.
Ajayi replaced Richarlison in the 81st minute and scored a ‘incredible’ solo goal in the 3-0 win.
And that moment has appeared to have caught the eye of Championship side Swansea City, who are interested in a late deal.
Barclay wasn’t sure if Ajayi would ultimately end up leaving Spurs, but he admitted there were also some League One clubs in the mix, too.
He said: “I’m told there’s been a bit of late loan interest in Damola Ajayi, who scored on his Spurs debut v Elfsborg last week, from Swansea and some League One clubs but not sure he’ll move at this stage.”
Tottenham might need to keep Damola Ajayi
Of course, Ajayi does seem to be one of those who are on the borderline of first team action, but maybe not quite there.
Therefore, six months in the Championship or League One could be the perfect opportunity for the youngster to prove a point to Postecoglou.
When all are fit, Spurs have strong competition for places in wide areas, but given their injuries, it might ultimately be concluded that Ajayi is needed.
Tottenham are set to sign Tel, but they are still not looking comfortable up top until the likes of Dominic Solanke and Brennan Johson return from their respective issues.
A difficult situation to navigate, and perhaps Spurs are done moving around their squad just yet before the deadline.
