Tottenham Fans React to Rumours Linking Young Defender With Argentina Return

Tottenham fans have taken to Twitter in response to transfer rumours regarding the future of young defender Juan Foyth, in the hope that the 20-year-old does not seek a return to Argentina after he arrived in north London last summer.

Spurs reportedly beat off competition from PSG last year to secure the services of Foyth from Argentine side Estudiantes, and according to Argentine website Infobae via Football.London, South American side Boca Juniors are lining up a move to bring the promising defender back to his homeland.

Foyth is behind the likes of Jan Vertonghen, Toby Alderweireld and Davinson Sanchez in Mauricio Pochettino's central defensive ranks, and a lack of first team opportunities has apparently given Boca hope that they may be able to lure the youngster back to his native country.
