Yet another plot twist in the Alderweireld saga

After a deal for Toby Alderweireld to join Manchester United was believed to be sealed, The Daily Mail report Spurs have not yet even received an official bid.

Another bombshell has been dropped in the ongoing saga of whether Alderweireld will stay or will he go?

It was reported on Saturday, a deal had been agreed between the two sides for the Belgian defender to join the Red Devils for a £60m fee.

Only four days remain until the transfer window shuts for the rest of the year but Spurs remain the only side not to have signed anyone.

If a deal for Alderweireld to leave fabricates it could leave Daniel Levy in a mad-dash to replace the Belgian.

Spurs had been linked with a move for Ajax’s Matthijs de Ligt earlier in the summer but to no prevail.

The other major European leagues have not signed up to such an early transfer deadline, meaning Levy could tempt a foreign side such as Ajax to release one of their defenders.

However, if he could get the deal over the line in such a short space of time would prove to be a small miracle.

Spurs fans, on a scale of 1-10 how frustrated would you be to see ALderweireld leave so late on in the transfer window?
