Tottenham fans react to Morgan Sanson transfer update

According to a report from Le10Sport (h/t Ricky Sacks), Tottenham Hotspur are closing in on the capture of Marseille midfielder Morgan Sanson.

The 25-year-old has been with Marseille since January 2017 and has grown into a key player for the club. He finished the 2019/20 campaign with a decent return of five goals and assists each from 27 Ligue 1 outings.

Reports of Tottenham’s interest in Sanson two weeks ago, with super agent Pini Zahavi offering the Frenchman to the club. And now, it seems like that a transfer is imminent, with Zahavi essaying a crucial role in speeding up negotiations between the two clubs.

It goes without saying that the report needs to be taken with a pinch of salt. Furthermore, given the number of central midfielders already at Jose Mourinho’s disposal, it does seem a tad unlikely that the club will be prioritising a transfer for Sanson.
