PSV Eindhoven are now keen on signing our-of-favour Tottenham Hotspur defender Davinson Sanchez this summer.

from Dutch publication Voetbal International has shared more details about the Colombian’s future.

One of the most obvious weaknesses in Tottenham’s tactics was their defence.

No team in the top half of the Premier League conceded more goals last season than Spurs.

Antonio Conte built his reputation on his teams being difficult to beat, but couldn’t get a tune out of his Tottenham squad.

After his sacking, both Cristian Stellini and Ryan Mason failed to fix the problem.

The most memorable match for all the wrong reasons was Tottenham’s 6-1 defeat to Newcastle where Stellini switched to a back four.

The 27-year-old could be reunited with old boss Peter Bosz, who managed him during his final season at Ajax before joining Tottenham.

Sanchez has also been linked with a move to Galatasaray as he explores all possible options this summer.

Pochettino had plenty of faith in Sanchez, but he never lived up to the expectations placed on him.

He’s been in and out of the team in recent seasons and struggled when not given regular minutes.

PSV would be a good option for Sanchez as he looks to rebuild his career away from Tottenham.

His departure could create space in the squad for another centre-back, such as Micky Van de Ven or Edmond Tapsoba.
