Loftus-Cheek may have to leave Chelsea, Spurs interested

THBN - Ruben Loftus-Cheek may have to leave Chelsea to get first-team football

In Transfer Talk today we talk about Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Suso, both players that interest Spurs, but first a statistic.

Spurs 2017/18 Stat: Tottenham scored the highest proportion of League goals (74%) in the 2nd half of games this season.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek

England player Ruben Loftus-Cheek is a target for clubs in the Bundesliga and is being followed by Tottenham Hotspur, Newcastle United and Crystal Palace.

The Chelsea player is unhappy and has admitted he may have to leave Chelsea to get first-team football. This is an increasing theme with youngsters now, as they are fed up with waiting at clubs while Tottenham has shown that youngsters can play first-team football for a top four and UEFA Champions League club.

Senior members of the hierarchy at Chelsea are adamant that he will not be allowed to leave, in which case they had better play him. However, they don't even have a manager at the moment.

Suso

AC Milan may have to sell 24-year-old (25 in November) Spanish attacking midfielder Suso to raise cash, although he signed a contract extension on 25 September 2017. He has a release clause, only to clubs outside of Italy, for £33.27 million (€38m).

Gianluca Di Marzio suggests Inter are negotiating with AC and have offered Antonio Candreva as part of the deal, but Milan asked for Marcelo Brozović or Ivan Perisic and those proposals were both rejected.
