Tottenham in talks to sell Victor Wanyama to Club Brugge for around £11m

Tottenham Hotspur are in talks to sell Victor Wanyama to Club Brugge before the Belgian transfer window shuts and hope to recoup the £11million they paid for the midfielder.

Brugge want to sign 28-year-old Wanyama before the closure of their summer transfer window on September 2 and have money to spend after selling striker Wesley and midfielder Marvelous Nakamba to Aston Villa for a combined £33m.

Nakamba’s sale has left Brugge needing to sign a new defensive midfielder and the club have already demonstrated their willingness to spend by signing goalkeeper Simon Mignolet from Liverpool this summer.

Spurs signed Wanyama for a knockdown fee of £11m three years ago, as the Kenyan only had a year left on his Southampton contract.

He still has two years left to run on his Tottenham contract and the club hope to recoup the money they signed him for, even though Wanyama has slipped down manager Mauricio Pochettino’s pecking order and struggled with injuries.

It is unclear yet whether or not Brugge would like to sign Wanyama permanently straight away or take him on loan with a commitment to buy as negotiations continue.

£11m for a crocked player, would be great. Loved Wanyama and was incredible when fit but that’s few and far between now,plus he’s probably 5/6th choice now .

Sucks how it turned out for him as we were crying out for that type of player against City.

Same thing I think happened to Palacios and Sandro. Midfield enforcers that have one great season and it seems to ruin their career.

The funds from Wanyama and N’Koudou sales could go towards a player in January, perhaps.

Wishful thinking.

Riddled with injuries. £11 million is a good deal for a player that we paid only £11 million for and has 2 yrs left on his contract.
