Former Tottenham ace questions rumours of star exits.

Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with selling star players Toby Alderweireld, Danny Rose and Mousa Dembele before the transfer window shuts, with SkySports claiming the club will listen to offers.

Former club captain Graham Roberts is not buying into the reports, and has voiced his scepticism over the claims.

He said he will reserve judgement over the trio’s future, and questioned the accuracy of Sky Sports’ story.

The trio have been linked with leaving Spurs all transfer window but no acceptable offers have come in for any of the players so far.

All three have been on extended holiday due to progression to the World Cup semi finals with England and Belgium.

In each case this could have delayed talks on their future, but it has also played into Tottenham’s hands with regards to keeping them, with just a week left of the transfer window.

It is highly unlikely Tottenham sell all three, with Dembele the most likely candidate to be sold as he has just one year remaining on his contract with the club.
