Insider 'expects' Tottenham to 'sign off' eight transfers 'by 1 January'

Tottenham are “expected” to “sign off” as many as eight loan transfers “by 1 January”.

That is according to Spurs insider John Wenham, who regularly breaks news about the club on his Lilywhite Rose social media channels.

According to Wenham, Tottenham have a number of young stars who could leave the club in January.

Dilan Markanday and Harvey White, both 20, are players Wenham has previously earmarked for January moves.

He now claims as many as eight youth players could leave on loan during the winter window as they look to take the next step in their development.

“There are a fair few players who should go out in January,” Wenham told Football Insider correspondent Ben Wild.

“I’ve spoken about Markanday and White before but another one who could go is Malachi Fagan-Walcott.

“He had a loan spell with Dundee last year but that was cut short after he picked up an injury.

“Hopefully that’s one we can look at again. I’m expecting these loans to be signed off by 1 January.

“There are maybe seven or eight players who could all go out from the Under-23s.

“That then gives the Under-18s a chance to step up into the 23s.

“In turn, that will give the Under-16s the chance to play with the Under-18s ahead of their scholarships starting next year.”

Markanday has scored 11 goals in 12 Premier League 2 outings this season.

White has scored five and assisted six in 13 outings in the same competition.
