Steven Bergwijn still has a huge role to play at Tottenham, whilst Erik Lamela and Lucas Moura can leave this summer.

According to , the Dutchman could stay despite his frustrating campaign last term.

The former PSV man featured in just 21 Premier League games last season, scoring just once.

As a result, there’s been speculation over his future with claims he could move to his former club’s rivals, .

Moura impressed for Tottenham in flashes, but, he too has underwhelmed for the most part.

Selling Lamela and Moura, whilst keeping Bergwijn, could help raise funds for Tottenham, who require massive surgery.
