Tottenham confirm transfer deadline day departure as Jose Mourinho debutant secures move

Tottenham have confirmed the departure of full-back Marcel Lavinier on transfer deadline day. The ex-Chelsea youngster has left N17 following the conclusion of his contract and has signed for League Two side Swindon Town.

Joining Tottenham's academy in 2020 after his exit from Chelsea, the 21-year-old made 43 appearances for the development squad over the past two seasons. The highlight of his Tottenham career undoubtedly came in February 2021 when he was handed his Spurs first-team bow by manager Jose Mourinho.

Facing Wolfsberger AC in the Europa League Round of 32, Lavinier played the final 16 minutes of the second leg as he replaced Matt Doherty at right-back. That was to be his solitary appearance in the Tottenham first team, although the player was given a chance on the bench by Antonio Conte back in April in the 1-0 home defeat against Brighton & Hove Albion.
