According to The Express, Tottenham Hotspur head coach Antonio Conte holds Japhet Tanganga in high regard, amid interest from Everton, AC Milan and Bournemouth.
The Express have reported this morning that Conte ‘holds Tanganga in high regard’, but the Tottenham head coach has to make a decision on his future.
Conte will asses the 23-year-old defender in pre-season and then decide whether to send him out on loan, sell permanently or keep him.
The youngster will struggle for playing time at Tottenham next season, as Conte has a lot of options at the back, according to the report.
The Express have claimed that AC Milan want to sign the Englishman on a permanent contract, while Bournemouth want him on loan.
La Gazzetta dello Sport have reported that Everton, Brentford and AC Milan all are keen on signing the former England Under-21 international.
Japhet Tanganga should leave Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur
In our view, Japhet Tanganga should leave Tottenham Hotspur in the summer transfer window, ideally on a loan deal.
The 23-year-old may be versatile enough to play as a centre-back, right-back and right wing-back, but he will face stiff competition to start regularly.
Yes, Spurs will have UEFA Champions League football next season, but Tanganga is unlikely to play much except in the domestic cup games.
Tanganga made 10 starts and one substitute appearance in the Premier League last season.
