Club chief shuts down transfer for £70k-a-week Tottenham target labelled 'very important'

Daniel Levy is looking to add armoury to Ange Postecoglou’s midfield in the ongoing summer transfer window as the officials at Hotspur Way work tirelessly to ensure that the Australian gaffer has sufficient depth and quality in the middle of the park in the new Premier League campaign.

The club are having a bit of a midfield revamp this summer, with Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg already bidding adieu to North London and the likes of Giovani Lo Celso and Oliver Skipp being linked with a move away from White Hart Lane.

Villa snubs Spurs to keep hold of Jacob Ramsey

Spurs have been linked with multiple players along the summer window; however, none of those links have materialised into a transfer just yet. One of the players highly linked with a move to the N17 is Aston Villa midfielder Jacob Ramsey.

The club has been trying to get hold of Jacob Ramsey during the summer window. Spurs also offered a cash-plus-player swap deal involving Giovani Lo Celso in a bid to land the highly-rated midfielder. 

Ramsey has a tireless engine complemented by a highly technical understanding of the game, which can take him a long way under Ange Postecoglou’s playing style.

Monchi rules out Ramsey exit amid Spurs interest

However, the Lilywhites’ Premier League rivals remain keen on keeping hold of the player. Aston Villa’s President of Football Operations, Monchi, reveals that Unai Emery has trust in confirmed Ramsey. 

A recent report by The Athletic insists that Ramsey is a ‘very important’ figure in Villa’s dressing room.

Speaking in an exclusive interview via Birmingham World about a potential Villa
exit for the £70k-a-week midfielder, the former Sevilla man said:

“If we wanted to sell Jacob Ramsey, we would have sold him already because we had different offers from different clubs. But Unai has big confidence in him.”

For Tottenham, the search continues as they continue to look for Gallagher-like profiles this summer. And any move for the £30m-rated player looks like going nowhere.

Do you think Levy can financially strong arm Villa into selling Ramsey this summer?
