Ronald Koeman has given Ross Barkley an ultimatum to sign a new contract within a week at Everton as per reports from BBC. The Dutch manager certainly was not messing about and it seems that the English midfielder could be on his way out of the Merseyside club.
That would mean good news for Tottenham as they have been keeping tabs on the 23-year-old attacking midfielder for some time now. Barkley was subject to an interest in the winter window as well and it seems he is one step closer to making a move to Spurs.
The problem lies with the fact that the Englishman has had a hit and miss season this time around. And Tottenham would hope that they get the best out of Barkley if they do sign him up.
With news filtering in of Koeman’s thoughts on Barkley’s future, Tottenham fans were caught between thoughts about the success of Barkley at the club.
We share some of the updates from the networking site as not all Spurs fans are convinced of Barkley joining the club.

Suspect Barkley is off to Spurs and you just know he will become a world beater under the tutelage of Potch.

Barkley isn't pulling up trees. He shouldn't be and I'm sure isn't a main target for Spurs. Better than N'koudou and Sissoko though. I am🤔

Not convinced Barkley is right for Spurs, especially given price. Don't want to spend club-record fee to not improve starting XI (again).

Bad move for Barkley if he goes to Spurs imo… Will constantly be battling with Alli for a start

Yes, I would 100% have Ross Barkley at Spurs. #COYS

Just don't get the fuss over Barkley. OK player but so inconsistent, loses the ball all the time. Wouldn't improve Spurs or any top 4 side.
