Tottenham transfer news: Harry Kane makes Spurs plea as Chelsea offer January swap deal

Your Tottenham morning transfer round-up on Tuesday, January 24.

Kane's future

Despite rumours of a transfer to Manchester United, Harry Kane's aim is to succeed at Tottenham Hotspur, football.london understands.

Kane has enjoyed yet another productive season in front of goal, netting 15 times in just 20 Premier League outings. However, his teammates haven't reached similar heights, with the usually lethal Son Heung-min scoring just four times in the league.

Tottenham urged to sell trio

Speaking on talkSPORT, former Aston Villa forward Gabby Agbonlahor was asked what he would do with members of the team and gave a scathing assessment on a certain trio. On club captain Hugo Lloris he said: "Make him get the ferry, not even fly him out. Mistake after mistake."

Lloris was criticised for his role in Arsenal's opener, which went down as his own goal after parrying Bukayo Saka's cross into his own net. He then couldn't get close to Martin Odegaard's long range effort for the second. Spurs are reportedly keen on England shot-stopper Jordan Pickford as a replacement.

His international teammate Eric Dier was another one that Agbonlahor wanted to see moved on though. "Sell. He’s too slow," the pundit said. As for Emerson Royal, the wing-back has been slammed for his performances on the right side of Conte's defence and Agbonlahor didn't hold back.

However, the report claims Tottenham do not want to sell Bissouma this month and have not entertained Chelsea's offer for the 26-year-old, which would include Hakim Ziyech moving to Spurs. After improving matters in the final third, Boehly's focus for the remaining week of the window looks set to be in midfield.

Bissouma is one of various players that saw their value sky-rocket under Potter at Brighton. Last season, the midfielder's performances warranted plenty of praise before he moved to Tottenham. "His high-end actions are Champions League level," Potter said in April.
