Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Harry Winks is now looking for a new team ahead of the January transfer window, CalcioMercato report

Winks’ future was actually heavily speculated about in the summer, but he opted to stay and fight for a place at Tottenham.

ESPN reported at the time how Winks was keen to stick around at Spurs, as he felt he could win a spot under Nuno.

However, he has endured more difficulties since the new Tottenham boss took charge.

Winks has found himself well down the pecking order, with Oliver Skipp now being favoured to him in the defensive midfield slots.

With Pierre Emile Hojbjerg also one of the first names on the Tottenham teamsheet, it has meant that Winks has found game time hard to come by.

And it appears that he has changed his mind about leaving Spurs now.

Best for both parties?

Reports in Italy claim that he is seeking out a new club, with Inter Milan and Roma both looking at him.

If Winks was to move to Roma then he would link back up with Jose Mourinho again.

That would be rather bizarre, given that Mourinho didn’t exactly take a shine to Winks during his time at Tottenham.

But it may well be best for all parties if the £40 million-rated England international (Times) was to move on in January, as he has badly struggled for form for well over a year now.
