Tottenham Hotspur have decisions to make before the transfer deadline passes, with Christian Eriksen at the centre of it.

Eriksen is being linked with a late exit, The Telegraph report. What Tottenham can’t afford to do, is rush into a sale.

How an Eriksen exit is perceived, and plays out on the pitch, will be defined by who Spurs can sign in his place.

Giovani Lo Celso is being strongly linked, along with Bruno Fernandes, The Independent report.

If Tottenham are serious about bringing one of them in, they need to get a deal done quickly.

A lesson received by Leicester yesterday highlighted the risk of selling before buying.

Owner Joe Lewis and Daniel Levy Chairman of Tottenham Hotspur

The Foxes were reportedly quoted £75 million for Nathan Ake by Bournemouth as they seek a replacement for Harry Maguire, Sky Sports report.

If Tottenham sell Eriksen before getting a new player in, then their own task is made more difficult.

It would be uncharacteristic for Daniel Levy to fall into this trap, but this has been a strange transfer window for a lot of clubs.

Tottenham need to ensure they come out of Thursday’s deadline stronger than when this week began.
