Harry Winks is reportedly set to stay at Tottenham Hotspur.

The England international has been linked with a move away from North London quite a bit this season.

In October, it was reported that Tottenham – who valued the player at £40 million – were keen to move him on.

However, The Evening Standard has written this afternoon that Winks won’t be going anywhere during the January transfer window.

The report adds that sacked Tottenham boss Nuno Espirito Santo made him ‘miserable’ in North London, having been left out of the squad entirely on a number of occasions.

Despite ‘considering his future’ back then, the Hotspur Way academy graduate is now thriving under Antonio Conte and is set to stay.

Transformation

Winks has been scapegoated quite a lot by Tottenham supporters in 2021.

Back in April, interim coach Ryan Mason started him ahead of Tanguy Ndombele in a League Cup final defeat by Manchester City.

But Winks proved under Mauricio Pochettino that he can certainly be an asset for the North Londoners.

And this revival under Italian manager Conte is a massive reminder of his quality.

In truth, he is looking absolutely reborn under the former Chelsea coach is recent weeks, a transformed player.

And the rumour that he now wants to stay at Tottenham has to be considered very good news.
