Report: Tottenham Hotspur will not sell key players

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Mauricio Pochettino has reportedly been assured that none of his key players will be sold in the summer.

In years gone by, Spurs have tended to part with some influential squad members, such as Michael Carrick, Dimitar Berbatov, Luka Modric and Gareth Bale.

However, this time around, chairman Daniel Levy is adamant that no stars will depart White Hart Lane, according to The Telegraph.

The report adds that Levy has insisted that Dele Alli in particular is going nowhere, even if an offer of £100m comes in for the 20-year-old.

Instead, it is believed that Spurs are planning for the future, with contract talks planned for Erik Lamela, Christian Eriksen, Jan Vertonghen, Nacer Chadli, Danny Rose, Harry Kane and Hugo Lloris.

There was disappointment for the North Londoners last night, though, as their 2-2 draw away at rivals Chelsea meant that they could no longer catch Premier League leaders Leicester City.
