Tottenham face Levy's ax as specialist wants £50,000-a-week boost

The pundit reckons the two Tottenham players could be on the move this summer, and the £50,000-a-week ace would be a “wonderful development” for the pair.

Spurs are making transfer plans with a big exit on the cards

A key talking point for Spurs in the summer will be a number of men who are thought to be in Ange Postecoglou's plans moving forward.

Many of them are currently on loan elsewhere, and it is possible that Tottenham will be open to offers for most of them. Tanguy Ndombele has failed to impress in another short term, this time at Galatasaray in Turkey, so chairman Daniel Levy will be eager to get rid of his £200,000-a-week salary at the club in the near future.

Meanwhile, the futures of four other senior players Djed Spence, Sergio Reguilon, Japhet Tanganga and Joe Rodon will all be decided this summer. Spence is apparently open to staying at Genoa once his loan is over, and Leeds are believed to be keen to sign Rodon permanently.

Reguilon apparently does not feature in Postecoglou's plans beyond 2023/2024, while Tanganga will have a year left on his contract when he returns from Millwall. Indeed, the aforementioned five could join current Spurs squad members Giovani Lo Celso and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg out the door.

Lo Celso has struggled for game time this season, leading to rumors that the Argentine could be leaving for pastures new, while Hojbjerg has started just six Premier League games despite featuring in almost every top-flight game this season.

If the Spurs duo is sold, possibly to finance the transfer of Postecoglou's transfer goals, the most powerful replacement would be Chelsea star Conor Gallagher.

The England international has been a key player in Mauricio Pochettino's system, but the Blues could be forced to sell due to FFP concerns and his contract expires next year.

Gallagher revealed that he will replace Lo Celso and Hojbjerg at Tottenham

Speaking to Tottenham News, analyst John Wenham said Gallagher would be a “fantastic upgrade” on Lo Celso and Hojbjerg.

“I like Gallagher a lot, I think he's a good player,” Wenham said.

“He is a character that Postecoglou would love to work with, a proper leader who has captained Chelsea many times this season. For me, he will be developing players like Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Giovani Lo Celso, who could go on.

“Gallagher would be a fantastic development, and someone I would love to see brought to the club.”

The £50,000-a-week ace could also be included in Tottenham's domestic valuation, with reports suggesting Postecoglou is a fan of Gallagher as we approach the summer window.
