Today’s tittle-tattle is roaring at the clouds
Famously booed on to the pitch by Tottenham fans upon his introduction as a first-half substitute against Bournemouth at the back end of last season, then off again when he was replaced 23 minutes later, Davinson Sánchez might be excused for wanting to up sticks from London N17 and move elsewhere.
The feeling on the part of the club hierarchy appears mutual, as The Athletic reports they are prepared to do business with a Russian club in order to get the Colombian defender off their payroll. While the Premier League cannot prevent its member clubs trading with sides from Russia while the state’s invasion of Ukraine is ongoing, such morally questionable deals are discouraged. But hey, this is football and it seems Tottenham have accepted a €15m (£12.9m) bid from Spartak Moscow for their defender, who is reported to have serious reservations about moving to the Russian capital. Luckily for him, he may get to hitch his wagon to Galatasaray instead.
