Mousa Dembele has reportedly turned down a £20 million transfer to Inter Milan and could stay in north London after entering the final year of his Tottenham Hotspur contract.
Simon Jones of MailOnline wrote that Dembele is looking to "wind down his career" as the physical requirements of England's top flight put a strain on his body, though it won't be to leave for the Nerazzurri.
Spurs might have benefited from selling a 31-year-old in the last year of his deal for £20 million rather than lose him for free next year, though it appears the player wants a big say in his future also.
