Could Tottenham's forgotten man Vincent Janssen finally be on his way out?

Udinese offer De Paul to Tottenham in a last minute deal?

Has Rodrigo de Paul's agent really offered him to Tottenham?

Okay, so this one is a little strange as apparently, the interest comes from the player rather than Tottenham. TeamTalk – via some reports in Italy – are suggesting that the agent of Udinese’s left-sided attacking midfielder Rodrigo De Paul has been in contact with Spurs in order to try to set up a move for the Argentine before the current transfer window closes.

The report suggests that De Paul would be available for around £30m, although Tottenham may well prefer a loan deal with an option for a permanent transfer at the end of the season. De Paul is certainly an exciting prospect – 24 years old, he’s made 20 Serie A appearances this season and has scored 6 goals and made 3 assists.

The only issue? The report also suggests that Inter Milan could rival Spurs for the player’s signature, mentioning that they’re looking for a replacement for the likely-Arsenal bound Ivan Perisic. To me that suggests this report could purely be agent talk looking to drive Inter into making a bid, but who really knows?
