Friday's Tottenham Hotspur transfer talk news roundup: Mesut Ozil, Marten de Roon

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Tottenham on Friday, December 25.

The summer transfer window has now closed, with Tottenham Hotspur having enjoyed one of their busiest and most exciting windows to date.

Gareth Bale made his return to the club on loan from Real Madrid, while Spurs also spent big on the likes of Sergio Reguilon, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Matt Doherty in addition to loaning Carlos Vinicius. Attention will now switch to the January window as Jose Mourinho continues to mould his squad.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news on possible comings and goings at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Friday morning's Tottenham Hotspur transfer talk news roundup:


Arsenal's Mesut Ozil rules out Tottenham Hotspur move

Arsenal outcast Mesut Ozil has insisted that he would not sign for Tottenham Hotspur as speculation over his future gathers pace.

The 32-year-old is expected to head for the Emirates exit door in 2021 after being frozen out of the team under Mikel Arteta, and Ozil's contract is up in the summer.

Fenerbahce have been the club most strongly linked with a swoop for Ozil, who has not pulled on the red and white jersey for a competitive match since before the first coronavirus-enforced lockdown in March.

Ozil recently hosted a Twitter Q&A session, during which one fan asked if he would ever sign for Arsenal's arch-rivals Tottenham, and the playmaker simply responded with a Spider-Man GIF displaying the word "No".

During the same Q&A on Wednesday evening, Ozil admitted that he wished he could help the Gunners during their current slump, and the former Real Madrid man tipped Matteo Guendouzi - who has also endured a frosty relationship with Arteta - to enjoy a bright future.

Ozil's agent recently confirmed that the ex-Germany international has offers from all over the world, but the midfielder is still not expected to leave in January.



Dele Alli to follow Mauricio Pochettino to Paris Saint-Germain?

Mauricio Pochettino could reportedly target a loan deal for Tottenham Hotspur attacker Dele Alli once he has officially been announced as the new Paris Saint-Germain boss.

The French champions sacked head coach Thomas Tuchel on Thursday, and Pochettino is regarded as the favourite to replace the German at the helm.

Dele has been strongly linked with a move away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, having found it difficult to secure regular minutes during the 2020-21 campaign.

PSG were linked with the England international over the summer, and according to European football expert Andy Brassell, a January loan switch to the French champions could be on the cards.

"Coaches have their favourite players," Brassell told talkSPORT. "PSG don't have that much money to play with, so a loan deal could be on the cards. He's not the first player they need, but they are lacking a bit of creativity and Marco Veratti is injured quite often."

The 24-year-old, who excelled under Pochettino at Tottenham, was criticised by current Spurs boss Jose Mourinho for his performance against Stoke City in the EFL Cup on Wednesday night.
