‘The deal is not going through’: Fabrizio Romano says talks over Spurs player exit have collapsed

Wed 26 January 2022 20:20, UK

Tottenham Hotspur defender Japhet Tanganga will not be joining Milan on loan this month, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The Spurs academy graduate has been linked with a departure from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium these last few weeks.

Last week, claimed the Rossoneri were in talks with Tottenham over a potential loan move for Tanganga.

Earlier this month, claimed Spurs director Fabio Paratici willing to sell him for £21million.

And on Monday, echoed The Sun’s claims in that Tottenham were apparently looking to move Tanganga on.

Apparently, Spurs would only consider letting the 22-year-old go if it was permanently or on loan with obligation to buy.

Now, Romano has claimed that the Tanganga to Milan deal has fallen through because of the difference in terms between the two clubs.

“For Tanganga and AC Milan, now the deal isn’t going through,” he told Matt Hayes – Tottenham Blog’s .

“They’re going for a different kind of player because Tottenham weren’t accepting a straight loan until the end of the season.”

What does the future hold for Tanganga at Spurs?

Based on what Sky Sports have reported and Romano has just said, Tottenham look willing to move Tanganga on for good.

Admittedly, he has struggled on occasion this season, but it looked like a loan spell away would have done him good.

Tanganga is still only 22 and, with a bit of regular first-team experience in Serie A, he could’ve come back a much better player.

However, if Antonio Conte and Paratici are willing to sell him this month, then his long-term future at the club doesn’t look secure.
