Tottenham have accepted an offer of £30 million for Mousa Dembele from an unnamed Chinese club, according to reports in France.
Dembele, who has one year left on his current contract, is expected to leave Spurs this summer with no indication he will agree terms on a new deal.
The Belgian joined Tottenham from Fulham in 2012 and has been one of the standout players during Mauricio Pochettino’s time at the club, despite struggling with injury troubles.
He is expected to make a decision on his future after the World Cup, but signs seem to be pointing towards a departure.
Juventus, Napoli and Inter Milan are all being credited with an interest, although it is unclear whether any of them have made an official move for the 30-year-old.
Now, French outlet RMC (via Get French Football News) is claiming Spurs have accepted a £30 million bid from a Chinese Super League side.
Whether the report is merely speculation remains to be seen – it will be interesting to see if any more reliable outlets pick up on the story in the coming hours.
dont understand why we just dont give him a new deal
Mousa has been fantastic for Spurs but I think it’s fair to say his very best years are behind him now. A move to italy or China would suit him right now as their style of football isn’t as intense as the EPL. For sure we need to cash in while we Can, that’s business and we all know Mr Levy will be well aware of that. All we can do is to thank mousa for his superb service and wish him well in the next and what may well be the final chapter of his career.
Good luck Mousa
