22-year-old reportedly given lifeline: Three Tottenham flops that cannot be afforded same luxury
Sissoko – no goals for £30m
Making 34 appearances in all competitions for Spurs last season, the £30million signing from Newcastle failed to find the back of the net and must be offloaded.
The Euro 2016 runner-up managed to just provide four assists for Spurs, and that lack of an impact in the final third should force Pochettino to admit his error of judgement.
Getting rid of Sissoko would give Spurs the chance to replace him with a player that can have more of an effect against the Premier League’s defences, in their pursuit of Premier League glory.
