Fabrizio Romano says Spurs are in ‘advanced stages’ of selling 27-year-old

According to Fabrizio Romano, Tottenham are in the ‘advanced stages’ of selling Davinson Sanchez to Spartak Moscow this summer. 

The Russian club have apparently submitted a bid of €12m (£10.4m) to Spurs for the Colombian central defender, and while the deal is still under discussion, Spartak are optimistic.

Davinson Sanchez has been popular this summer

Sanchez has been consistently linked with an exit so far this summer, with a range of clubs said to be showing interest, including Spartak Moscow (Sport Express), PSV Eindhoven (Voetbal International), Villarreal (Relevo) and Galatasaray (Sporx).

Ryan Taylor recently reported (Express) that Real Betis, Strasbourg, Galatasaray, Spartak Moscow, Fenerbahce and Villarreal have held discussions about Sanchez, with Spurs asking for between £10m and £13m.

Now it appears that Spartak Moscow are close to landing the centre-back for that kind of fee.

Spurs Web Opinion:

Getting around £10m for Sanchez with a year left on his contract is decent business. For too long, Spurs have held onto players because they can’t get high fees for them.

The time has come to just sell the players you don’t want for whatever you can get, and properly rebuild the squad.
