DONE DEAL: Tottenham have complete another signing following the signing of England ster on £25m.

Both Fabrizio Romano and The Athletic’s David Ornstein have revealed that rumoured Tottenham target, Wilfried Gnonto, has submitted a written transfer request to Leeds United

Tottenham’s interest in Gnonto first came to light last week (LondonWorld) and it subsequently emerged that the 19-year-old had refused to play for Leeds as he was trying to force himself out of Elland Road (Daily Telegraph).

Written transfer request submitted by Gnonto

Ornstein has now revealed that Gnonto has submitted a written transfer request to the Leeds hierarchy but the relegated club have no intention of letting the wide-forward leave.

The journalist makes no mention of Tottenham but he states that Everton have had multiple offers rejected for the Italy international, the latest of which is thought to be worth £25m.

Ornstein adds that Leeds are adamant they are treating Gnoto’s behaviour as an ‘internal disciplinary matter’ and are not willing to sanction the player’s departure.

This has also been backed up by Romano, who asserted that the teenager is refusing to even train with the Leeds squad, with the Toffees expected to launch another offer for the player over the coming days.

By the sounds of it, it is Everton who have shown the most concrete interest in Gnoto, with no indication yet that Tottenham are contemplating an offer for the 19-year-old.

However, if Leeds do decide to sell, I would not be surprised if Spurs look to hijack the deal for the forward late in the window.

Tottenham are looking for a new striker after finally selling Harry Kane to Bayern Munich this summer.

Spurs got £100m for their star man and are now tasked with the job of trying to replace both the goals and assists that Kane brings to a team.

Of course, in an ideal world, signing a top striker would go a long way to filling the gap left by Kane.

According to journalist Sacha Tavolieri, Tottenham were in for Muani but the forward rejected the move as Spurs apparently dithered over turning interest into a bid.

It seems very much, then, that Tottenham have missed a trick here with Muani.

Ange Postecoglou has spoken of trimming his squad in the coming weeks but there is also a reality that replacing Kane best they can is a priority.

Tottenham fans could end up frustrated this summer
If Spurs don’t end up signing a forward, or at least a player who can play in the number ten role, then Tottenham fans will be wondering what’s going on.

Missing out on Muani might be one thing but if it happens again with other targets, then it looks like Spurs are failing off the field.

We all know Kane can’t be replaced directly. He’s just too good and that’s why he cost more than £100m.

However, players like the ‘amazing’ Muani and others on the market can go towards filling the void and this very much feels like an opportunity missed.

The Athletic have claimed that Tottenham Hotspur have complete the signing of England defender on four year deal on (£25.7m)

It has been reported by various outlets over the last couple of months that Adarabioyo is on Tottenham’s radar (Football London), but it emerged last week that Spurs were looking beyond the Fulham star and towards other centre-back options such as Torino’s Perr Shuurs (GiveMeSport).

 

Meanwhile, Foot Mercato. suggested last week that the former England Under-21s star was edging closer to a move to Monaco.

On Tuesday, Sky Sports journalist Lyall Thomas revealed that the Ligue 1 club’s offer of €10m (£8.5m) for the centre-back was turned down by Fulham.

Spurs continue to circle Adarabioyo this summer

News of Monaco’s latest rejected offer has now also been backed up by The Athletic, who explain that this is the second bid that the French club have had sent back after initially bidding €7m (£6m) plus add-ons for the player earlier in the summer.

The report asserts that Tottenham have not withdrawn from the race for Adarabioyo’s signature, with the Lilywhites alleged to be monitoring the centre-back’s situation closely.

Spurs Web Opinion

Moncao would not be launching offers and negotiating with Fulham unless they already have a verbal agreement in place with Adarabioyo’s entourage. So, the fact that Spurs are not getting involved in the bidding suggests that they are prioritising other centre-back options instead.
