Sissoko among Tottenham duo finished under Nuno amid Sky update – pundit
Paul Robinson has tipped both Serge Aurier and Moussa Sissoko to leave Tottenham before next week’s transfer deadline.
The former Spurs keeper, speaking exclusively to Football Insider, suggested there is no way back into the first-team reckoning for either player.
Sky Sports reported on Saturday (August 21st) that any potential incomings before the August 31 deadline would hinge on offloading players.
Both Aurier and Sissoko are reportedly up for sale.
Sky claim Tottenham are interested in Adama Traore, Kvicha Kvaratskhelia, and Noni Madueke.
Robinson stated that it was “clear” that Aurier and Sissoko’s time in North London was up.
He told Football Insider‘s Dylan Childs: “It’s quite clear that they’re not part of the manager’s plans – and that can happen when a new manager comes in. I expect them to go.
“I’ve been a victim of it before, sometimes they don’t rate you as a player or you don’t fit into the system they want to play.
“I think Aurier has probably been available for transfer for a while now, he looked set to leave in the last window but it fell through.
“With the way Tanganga is playing and with how Doherty is well known by Nuno, there doesn’t look to be any way he can get into that team.
“Sissoko is the same.”
Aurier joined Spurs in 2017 for around £23million and has made 110 appearances in all competitions.
The ex-PSG man is under contract with the club until the end of the season.
Tottenham signed Sissoko in the summer of 2016 for £30million.
The midfielder has played 202 games for the club across all competitions and is contracted until June 2023.
