Sources: Tottenham ready to accept Davinson Sanchez offer after deal 'agreed'

Tottenham are keen to offload Davinson Sanchez before the window shuts, sources have told Football Insider.

The centre-back, 27, is down the pecking order at Spurs and has entered the last year of his contract.

Tottenham would rather sell Sanchez in this window rather than lose him on a free transfer next year.

They would be willing to accept a cut-price offer for the Mauricio Pochettino favourite, whose value has dropped considerably since he joined for £42million from Ajax in 2017.

The Londoners would now let the Colombian go for around £10m.

He came close to joining Spartak Moscow last month after Spurs accepted a £12.9m bid but the player was reluctant to join the Russian side.

Ange Postecoglou brought in centre-back Micky Van de Ven this summer to bolster his defensive reinforcements and the new Spurs boss has preferred to field Cristian Romero as his partner.

The duo played the full 90 minutes in both of Tottenham’s wins this season against Manchester United and Bournemouth.

Sanchez has been named on the bench for all three of Tottenham’s Premier League matches in 2023/24, and his only minutes so far came when replacing Romero in the 2-2 draw with Brentford.

The Colombian also struggled for game time last season, playing just 1,231 minutes of first-team football across all competitions, including just 852 minutes in the Premier League.

Should Sanchez leave this summer, he’ll depart Tottenham having made 206 appearances for the club with five goals to his name.
