Dele, 24, first joined Spurs in 2015 after making a £5.97m switch from MK Dons, as per Transfermarkt.
Since arriving in the country’s capital, the talented English midfielder has gone on to feature in over 230 matches in all competitions and has been directly involved in 121 goals.
However, despite flourishing under former manager Mauricio Pochettino, the 24-year-old has recently found himself fall majorly out-of-favour with current boss Jose Mourinho.
Dele’s exclusion from Spurs’ preferred starting 11 have seen the 24-year-old start just one Premier League match so far, this season.
Mourinho’s seemingly eagerness to axe the midfielder from his first-team plans have sparked speculation that Dele could be set for a shock exit.
Front-runners to land the highly-rated midfielder appear to be Paris-Saint Germain who are now managed by Pochettino.
According to a recent report from Goal France, a proposed deal for Dele to move to the French capital is being held up by Levy’s huge demand for £44m.
The report states that Dele is keen to secure the move but unless Paris-Saint Germain agree to Levy’s huge valuation, the Englishman won’t be going anywhere.
How stupid is this…. Dele shouldn’t be leaving, but the way he has been threated, nobody can blame him. The moron in charge, Has slagged him of in the press at every opportunity, but the chairman, a true spurs supporter wants to keep him and knows worth, but until the manager screws up, levy has to back him, and can’t therfore make him play dele, but knows his worth and wants 50m.
Spurs a team who can’t defend, now have a player who apparently isn’t even good enough for us, but is again apparently worth 50m, so we out price him and force him to stay. We will have on the dressing room an unhappy player who no longer wants to be there. GREAT
Erikson wasn’t happy wouldn’t say why, stopped performing, forced a move, and now looks like he could be on the way back.
Dele isn’t happy, tells us why, he wants to play, and we want rid, sorry the special one wants rid.
Mr mourino, please earn your money and learn how to man manage, your job is too get the players confidence back, turn him back into an asset, so we can use his talents or sell him and justify to high price
Donk!
Donk, what does that mean.
