In terms of outgoings Spurs need to offload some overseas players to meet the regulations of squad composition. They are currently over the limit of overseas players allowed in the 25-man squad.

Hugo Lloris, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Davinson Sanchez, Bryan Gil and Ivan Perisic are the other names revealed by The Telegraph that the North London-based club could be willing to let go.
