19 year old winger Cengiz Under, tipped as the ‘Turkish Dybala’, has commented on his rumoured future away from Basaksehir, with good news and bad news for Spurs.
Last month, Turkish sports outlet Ajanspor had claimed both Basaksehir and Tottenham Hotspur had agreed a fee for the wonderkid and that a transfer was all but imminent.

Recently, the promising forward opened up on his desire to leave Basaksehir and gave Tottenham’s hopes of signing the youngster both a boost and a setback at the same time.
In an interview with Turkish daily Milliyet, Under said:
