Spurs suffer setback in pursuit of end-January deal
Thomas Frank There is still room in his squad for one or two key late additions, but as things stand, the Lilywhites are nowhere close to signing a player for a third time in the transfer window.
Reports earlier this week suggested Tottenham Hotspur in pursuit of Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe MataBut the Frenchman now looks set to join AC Milan instead, unless Tottenham or Nottingham Forest surprise him at the last minute.
The north Londoner has also been linked with a number of other attacking big names, such as Bayern’s Serge Gnabry, but the former Arsenal star has apparently turned down their approaches amid talks over a contract extension.
Spurs are now without forward options, with Mohamed Kudus, Richarlison, James Madson and Dejan Kulusevski all injured, as well as Rodrigo Bencur, Pedro Polo, Lucas Bergvall and Ben Davies.
Tottenham Hotspur’s eight-man absences are causing a headache for Frank, who is dealing with similar issues with player availability that Anj Postecoglou experienced last season.
The Lewis family, Vinay Venkatesham and sporting director John Langer responded by signing former Chelsea captain Connor Gallagher from Atletico Madrid for £35m and young Brazilian left-back Sousa, but they are in need of more bodies.

Leon Goretzka to decide in January but wants move to Tottenham Hotspur
That being said, Goretzka is likely to move to Tottenham later this year, according to Bayern insiders Christian Falk.
According to him, the Germany international is “very” keen to join Tottenham when his contract expires this summer.
Falke also said Tottenham’s interest played a key role in his decision to wait until the next transfer window, as he would be free to join them without being held back by any inter-club transfer fees.
“In my opinion, I think joining the Premier League is a big aspiration,” Falke said.
“I heard that Tottenham Hotspur were one of the clubs interested in Leon Goretzka. So, I think when the midfielder decided to avoid a move in January, he was thinking about that too. Come the summer, he will be free to join any club he likes and I think Tottenham Hotspur are one of the clubs he is very interested in.”
While Goretzka is thought to be in a shocking state £300,000 per week Spurs won’t have to worry about matching Bayern’s salary when he leaves as a free agent.
What they must worry about, though, is the fierce competition for his signature, mainly from Atletico Madrid, who have clearly made a push for the former Schalke star this month.
