Your support makes all the difference.Saido Berahino has set his heart on a move to Tottenham this month, according to reports. The unsettled West Brom striker is interesting a number of clubs, with Stoke and Newcastle among those ready to move for the 22-year-old. However it seems they will be rejected by the player, with White Hart Lane the only destination of interest. Tottenham made a number of bids in the summer.
It's been suggested that Andros Townsend could be used as a make-weight in any deal for Berahino, or alternatively sold to raise funds. However it's emerged that the England winger is not interested in leaving Spurs, will reject any offers and plans to stay and fight for his place in Mauricio Pochettino's side.
The rumours linking Tottenham with Fulham striker Moussa Dembele continue. The latest reports suggest that Spurs are ahead of Manchester United in the pursuit for the young French striker.
Linked with a move away has been star player Harry Kane, but thankfully for Tottenham fans, the striker insists he has no intention of leaving White Hart Lane. "There are always going to be rumours flying around but I’m happy here," he said. "The club is in a good shape, we have a great future and I’m raring to go so we will see what happens."
One player who could be on their way though is Federico Fazio. According to reports Tottenham are in talks with Sevilla about the defender. Pochettino has sanctioned the sale of the player, despite him joining in an £8m deal just 17 months ago. The Argentinian 28-year-old has made just one appearance for Tottenham this term.
