Tottenham Hotspur defender in discussions to leave, as crisis deepens: report

"With Spurs facing the prospect of a financial meltdown in the event of relegation, the playing squad are facing a wage cut of 50 per cent, as per the BBC, with major decisions for several of the biggest stars. Regardless of whether or not Spurs scrape the drop, FourFourTwo understands that there will likely be major exits this summer, as the club look to re-energise the squad and bring in a new permanent manager."

"Club captain Cristian Romero, central defensive partner Micky van de Ven, goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario and full-back pairing Djed Spence and Pedro Porro have all been linked with tentative moves already with reports now surfacing of another defensive presence engineering a move away from North London."

"Turkish outlet Takvim have revealed that Kevin Danso is a target for Besiktas, with the Istanbul outfit having already signed Wolverhampton Wanderers defender Emmanuel Agbadou to their backline in January. Besiktas have apparently already made contact with Danso now, who is capable of playing on the right, centre or left of a centre-back partnership or trio."

Tottenham Hotspur is experiencing a critical period, hovering above the Premier League drop zone with nine games remaining and having lost their last five league matches consecutively. The club faces potential financial catastrophe if relegated, which would trigger 50% wage cuts for players. Multiple key players including captain Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, Guglielmo Vicario, Djed Spence, and Pedro Porro have been linked with moves away. Additionally, defender Kevin Danso is reportedly targeted by Turkish club Besiktas. The club plans significant squad overhaul and managerial changes regardless of their final league position.
