Tottenham might get a helping hand from Man Utd or Brighton to offload Mourinho favourite

Tottenham Hotspur are working hard in the transfer market to strengthen their squad and raise funds by selling fringe players. The Lilywhites will play Leicester City in an away game at the King Power Stadium to start their new campaign. 

However, the Premier League game and its result will not affect many of their ongoing transfer activities during this summer. Spurs have already signed forward Dominic Solanke and midfielder Archie Gray by paying a hefty price to strengthen their squad.

Furthermore, they are still assessing the transfer market to bolster the first team with a few more signings before the deadline day. Raising funds from the outgoing fringe players is a crucial part of the transfer business to maintain a healthy finance. 

Jose Mourinho and Sergio Reguilon

Spurs have already let go of players like Eric Dier, Ryan Sessegnon, Tanguy Ndombele, Ivan Perisic and Japhet Tanganga for free. Furthermore, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Bryan Gil also left in a loan transfer which reduces the wages but does not add any funds.

However, they can make crucial income by selling Sergio Reguilon during this summer amid interest from Fenerbahce. Reguilon made most of his appearances for the Lilywhites under Mourinho’s tenure and respects the Portuguese a lot

Furthermore, the feeling of respect is mutual as Mourinho rates the Spaniard very highly, having praised him publicly many times. According to the Turkish publication SporX, Manchester United and Brighton want Ferdi Kadioglu from Fenerbahce during this summer.  

The deal could allow the Turkish giants to pursue the target that Mourinho desires with Reguilon on top. The 27-year-old is a surplus to the requirements at the club, unable to compete with first-choice right-back Pedro Porro.

He spent last season in two loan spells for Man United and Brentford but both teams refused to buy him. A deal for Kadioglu could allow Reguilon and Spurs to part way in a deal that will be mutually beneficial. It will also allow Spurs to shift their focus to more important transfer activities.
