The Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Josh Onomah is ‘liked’ by Burnley and Fulham, according to the Daily Mail (August 1st live blog).

Onomah spent last season on loan to Aston Villa, who the newspaper claims are keen on bringing him back to Villa Park.

However, it adds that they, along with Burnley and Fulham, are unlikely to get their hands on the 21-year-old, with Tottenham reluctant to lose him.

Spurs are yet to make a single new signing this close-season, and has midfielders Victor Wanyama, Harry Winks and Moussa Sissoko out injured, while Eric Dier and Mousa Dembele remain absent after enjoying extended World Cups.

Burnley have also endured a quiet transfer window, while Fulham have already made five high-profile recruits since winning the Championship play-offs at the expense of Aston Villa in May.

Onomah, who is a product of the Tottenham academy system, played 37 times for Aston Villa last season – scoring four goals and setting up three.
