Spurs endured a signingless summer in the build up to the latest Premier League campaign, however they are off to an unbeaten start after their first two games.
The failure to add any new players to the roster doesn’t appear to have affected the squad, as the sense of settled togetherness still remains.
A narrow 2-1 away to Newcastle United on opening day, and a comprehensive 3-1 win at Wembley against Fulham has seen Tottenham enjoy their best start to a Premier League campaign in three years.
The likes of established first teamers Toby Alderweireld, Danny Rose and Mousa Dembele were all linked with exits from the club during the transfer window, but who are the most likely players to leave Hotspur Way before August 31?
Juan Foyth
In a similar situation to young Carter-Vickers, the Argentinian faces another bit-part role for Tottenham this season, with Toby Alderweireld set to stay.
Leeds United are said to be interested in taking the player on loan, however, it could be a case of one or the other in terms of young Tottenham centre-backs.
With Jan Vertonghen, Davinson Sanchez, and Toby Alderweireld nailing down the first team positions, the likes of Eric Dier, Juan Foyth and Cameron Carter-Vickers are really only there to provide cover in regards to the centre-back berth.
If Tottenham do want to send their youngsters out on loan, it would seem wise to keep either Foyth or Carter-Vickers as back up to their star three.
With Pochettino often favouring a back three, it would be dangerous to leave only two back-up centre backs at the club.
