Davinson Sanchez: Tottenham accept £13m bid as squad overhaul continues

Tottenham defender Davinson Sanchez is weighing up an offer from Spartak Moscow.

Spurs have accepted a £12.9million bid, but Sanchez is yet to agree personal terms.

The 27-year-old has also attracted interest from other clubs — including Galatasaray, Real Betis and Sevilla — and it remains to be seen if he would be willing to move to Russia in the current climate. Clubs in Russia are banned from competing in Europe following the country's invasion of Ukraine.

Sanchez has slipped down the pecking order at Tottenham and is set to leave this summer as he is entering the final 12 months of his contract.
