Exclusive: Mauricio Pochettino wants £150m Tottenham squad overhaul including several new signings and departures

With Alderweireld expected to depart, Pochettino wants a new central defender and would like Tottenham to rival the likes of Barcelona for Ajax’s 18-year-old Matthijs de Ligt. Newcastle United captain Jamaal Lascelles is seen as another option.

Nah, keep the prisoner in the woods locked up with the barcodes

 

[archiewasking]

Really want this guy.

 

[Univarn]

I like Lascelles a lot but I wonder if his passing is good enough for Poch's system. I've seen quite a few Dier derps from him when trying to play passes in risky situations.

 

[dontcallme]

Been really impressive whenever I have seen him.

 

[lsgspurs7]

If not De ligt then he will do

 

[spursfan77]

Looked good last Wednesday. Should be in the England squad.

 

[tobi]

Benitez has taught him well, I think he can step up.

 

[Tyler24durden]

We tracked him when he was at forest so no surprise we are still monitoring him.

 

[RuskyM]

He is fucking brilliant and has been captain of Newcastle since he was 22 years old. Would be an excellent signing.

 

[manic041]

Agreed, watching him last week against us proved to me that he would fit in well to our system. He was even a threat on attacking set pieces which I think is something we lack majorly from our defenders at the moment

 

[Armstrong_11]

Good on the ball. A leader at Newcastle. Yeah I'll take him. Think he is one of the best players at that club.

Won't be cheap thou.

 

[nedley]

Just not sure if his passing is good enough.

Good player.

 

[LDNYid]

Decent player, think Poch could help him make the next step... Certainly helps that he has experience of the league and clearly a leader.

 

[matty74]

A decent viable option this one had a excellent season in the premier league and at the right age to only get better. Commanding player strong good in the air. Decent on the ball and a leader

 

[Spurrific]

To go against the grain, I think he’s slightly overrated as things stand. Wouldn’t be against the signing, but he hasn’t been this impervious rock people seem to describe him as

 

[Mr Pink]

much prefer this guy over Mawson, that's for sure

 

[fatpiranha]

A defender who can defend and a leader as well. He wouldn't be the worst signing and would leave plenty in the bank to upgrade in other areas. One to consider.

 

[dondo]

Like this lad a lot. Newcastle could deal with us as I’m sure Rafa want to strengthen them in other areas.
Maybe offer them 25m plus CCV on loan??

 

[orlandinho]

Straight swap for Sissoko?
