Swap deal with Manchester United still on the cards

Sky Sports News reporter Dharmesh Sheth, believes there is still the possibility we could see Toby Alderweireld leave for Old Trafford and Anthony Martial switch to Spurs.

However, the Red Devils boss Jose Mourinho is reluctant to allow Martial to leave for a rival club.

Dharmesh Sheth told the Sky Sports News podcast:

“We’re told he wants to leave, now United may be prepared to let him go but not to a Premier League rival.”

“Tottenham have had a long-standing interest in Martial,” he added.

Having missed training for the past week now, the 22-year-old midfielder faces a £180,000 fine from the club.

Martial has found himself second choice to Alexis Sanchez since the Chilean made the move from Arsenal in the January transfer window.

The Alderweireld saga has seemed to drag it’s feet for months now but with the Manchester United winger desperate for a move a straight swap may favour Spurs.

Spurs fans, would you be happy to let Alderweireld go this late in return for Martial?
