Troy Parrott is set to join AZ Alkmaar
Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou continues to reshape his first team ahead of the new season.
The Lilywhites fell badly at the end of last season when it seemed that getting into the Champions League seemed like an impossibility.
They have lost five of their last seven games (WhoScored), allowing Aston Villa to move them into a coveted fourth place, just two points ahead of Spurs.
Troy Parrott to leave Tottenham on a permanent deal
After a good start to the campaign, that will come as a huge disappointment, although their drop in performance can be traced back to the start of the season when James Maddison and others suffered long-term injuries.
In 2023/24, Postecoglou's test for his players now is to see how much they can improve on last season.
Troy Parrott, however, will not be part of Australia's ongoing transformation in North London.
According to Football Insider, the 22-year-old is traveling to Holland before undergoing a medical at AZ Alkmaar.
Terms are said to have already been agreed, with Alkmaar's interest reportedly sparked after Parrott's performances on loan at Excelsior Rotterdam last season saw him score 10 goals and provide four assists.
A permanent departure will certainly comfort Parrott considering that after only two appearances in the Premier League for Spurs (transfermarkt), he had to settle for loan spells at Millwall, Ipswich Town, Milton Keynes Dons and Preston North End. Excelsior.
Finally putting down roots elsewhere could be the driver to Parrott playing his best football, and time will tell whether Tottenham have made a huge error of judgement.
