Tottenham are looking to strengthen their own squad before the transfer window closes in a week.
Spurs have signed Conor Gallagher from Atletico Madrid so far, but in the two games he’s played since returning to the Premier League, just one point has been claimed.
Brennan Johnson has left for Crystal Palace, and given how badly he’s started for the Eagles, perhaps that was a good piece of business to get completed.
It would appear that other players could leave the club before the transfer window closes, and it seems as though the writing is on the wall for one youngster.
Tottenham will sanction Callum Olusesi exit
According to reports in Italy, Torino are set to sign Olusesi, with the club set to sanction the deal after Tottenham’s Champions League clash against Eintracht Frankfurt on Wednesday.
The 18-year-old has made his first-team bow at Tottenham, getting minutes in the Europa League last season under Ange Postecoglou as the club ended up winning the title.
Olusesi has also found himself on the bench for the first team this season, too, in the Champions League, but with one group game left to play, he’s not made it onto the pitch.
Now, Torino are going to land the youngster on a permanent deal, with the paperwork set to be finalised once the group stages of the Champions League are completed.
What Ange Postecoglou said about Callum Olusesi
It was the former manager who gave Olusesi his big break by getting some minutes in the Europa League, and after that game, he delivered his verdict on the youngster.
Postecoglou said to Football London: “He’s obviously a very talented player and he’s one of the ones we’ve got high hopes for.
“He got a taste for it on Thursday night, which is great for him and for his family.
“Hopefully, it gives him encouragement, but he’s still got a long way to go in terms of becoming part of the first team.”
Now, Spurs will be left hoping they don’t live to regret this decision to let the youngster leave before he’s completely fulfilled his potential.
