With Jan Vertonghen and Toby Alderweireld struggling for consistency while Juan Foyth remains on the periphery, Tottenham were expected to bring in another centre-back before the January transfer window closed, but latest reports suggest the Lilywhites may pass up the chance to sign a coveted target.
Tottenham have been linked with Nathan Ake for some time, but the Evening Standard believe the 24-year-old has been deemed too expensive for Spurs’ tastes and won’t be pursued in the coming days and weeks. Supporters are understandably frustrated at Daniel Levy and Joe Lewis of ENIC for the lack of investment and made their feelings clear on social media.
