Danny Rose set to be left out of Tottenham’s Premier League squad
According to the Daily Mail, veteran Tottenham Hotspur defender Danny Rose is set to be left out of the club’s Premier League squad for the 2020/21 campaign.
Rose joined Tottenham from Leeds United in 2007 and has made 214 appearances for the club, scoring 10 goals and 29 assists. (h/t Transfermarkt)
However, over the past couple of years, his stock has been on the decline, with Ben Davies usurping him as the first-choice left-back at the club. The Englishman completely fell out of favour with new manager Jose Mourinho once he took over last November.
Rose spent the second half of the 2019/20 campaign on loan at Newcastle United. Back at the club, Rose continues to be a persona non-grata, with the left-back not even being a squad number for this term.
Rose finds himself behind Ben Davies, new signing Sergio Reguilon as well as academy man Dennis Cirkin in the pecking order. Exiled from the first-team, the 30-year-old has already been axed from the club’s 25-man squad for the UEFA Europa League group stages.
And as per the aforementioned report, Rose could be dropped from the club’s squad for the Premier League as well. All clubs must register their updated 25-man squad lists by October 20. And the veteran Tottenham star is not expected to make the cut.

With the European transfer window closing, Rose’s best option to be playing competitive football at the moment would be a move to the EFL Championship, at least until the January transfer window. It remains to be seen what the immediate future holds for the left-back at Tottenham.
