It was reported early on this deadline day by Tom Collomosse that Nottingham Forest were keen on a move for Sanchez but the player was not convinced about leaving the club.
According to Michael Bridge, Tottenham offered Bournemouth the chance to sign Eric Dier whilst discussions are taking place over bringing Cherries Defender Lloyd Kelly to North London.
However, the player would rather move abroad than stay in England when he moves on from the club. Moving on the likes of Dier and Sanchez is critical for Tottenham’s chances of recruiting further on deadline day.
