Injuries have crippled Tottenham, forcing the club to chase players across multiple positions this winter. The offensive line has suffered the most due to health issues, prompting Spurs to take the lead among Premier League clubs interested in Bayern’s French forward, Mathys Tel, after he expressed his desire to leave the German club yesterday.Don’t Tel anyone, but PL giants seriously fell for Bayern’s wonderkidHowever, Tel rejected Tottenham today and is now considering other offers, with Manchester United emerging as the frontrunner. This comes as a major setback for Spurs, who were willing to meet Bayern’s 60 million asking price. But as the saying goes, “life goes on”, and the London club has already shifted focus to its next target. As things stand, Tottenham is set to land a consolation prize—though this time, it’s a defender.According to Gianluca Di Marzio and Sky Sport Italia, negotiations with AC Milan over Fikayo Tomori are progressing positively, with a deal likely to be struck for the English defender to leave San Siro for 30 million.🚨🏴 Tottenham are advancing in talks to sign Fikayo Tomori (27) from Milan, reports @DiMarzio. 🗣️ pic.twitter.com/gF1z2LIkKE— EuroFoot (@eurofootcom) January 31, 2025 Yesterday, Aston Villa attempted to convince the Rossoneri by offering a 3 million loan fee with a mandatory 27 million purchase clause, but Milan was not keen on deferred payments.Until recently, it seemed that Serbian international Strahinja Pavlovic would be the center-back departing Milan. However, after two strong performances, the club’s stance on his exit has shifted. Axel Disasi from Chelsea was mentioned as a potential replacement if Pavlovic left, but it remains to be seen whether Milan will react in case Tomori is sold. Should that happen, head coach Sergio Conceicao would be left with only Pavlovic, Malick Thiaw, and Matteo Gabbia as center-back options.Not even one of the finest CVs in the world could buy this man more than six months at San SiroAs for Tottenham, which has spent a total of 20 million euros this winter on goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky and winger Min Hyuk Yang, the search for a striker must continue elsewhere. With just three days remaining in the transfer window, time is running out.ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE – MATCHDAY 24Saturday 15.30: (2.40) Nott.Forest (3.40) Brighton (2.95)18.00: (4.80) Bournemouth (4.30) Liverpool (1.70)18.00: (1.80) Everton (3.60) Leicester (5.10)18.00: (2.00) Ipswich (3.60) Southampton (4.10)18.00: (1.67) Newcastle (3.80) Fulham (5.30)20.30: (3.45) Wolverhampton (3.50) Aston Villa (2.20)Sunday 17.00: (2.20) Brentford (3.70) Tottenham (3.35)17.00: (2.10) Man.Utd.
