Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino should make Mousa Dembele unavailable now.
Selling Mousa Dembele now looks like a worse decision than ever before for Tottenham Hotspur.
Tottenham still have some fringe players to offload this summer, but getting rid of Dembele could be a massive error.
Spurs have not brought in a single player this summer, in a transfer window where they have stood still.
Losing Dembele now would unquestionably weaken their squad, and if they really want to be challenging for trophies, it is hard to see why Mauricio Pochettino would even consider letting him go.
Dembele, who is on an £80,000-a-week contract at Spurs (Daily Star), may not be getting any younger, but he remains a highly talented player, and when on form he is one of the best midfielders in the Premier League.
Tottenham do not have the time to replace him anymore, with the transfer window closing.
And rather than looking to sell, Tottenham should have made Dembele unavailable, after what has been a quiet transfer window for them so far.
