"Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Dennis Cirkin from Sunderland in the Janaury transfer window, accoridng to TBR."
"You know, it was more of a logistical issue (Mathys Tel being omitted from Tottenham's Champions League squad), and everyone forgets that because of the homegrown rules, Spurs lost three spots, which I think Newcastle also lost, if I'm not mistaken, down to 22. And when it's only 22, it's tight."
"Another reason I think they might go for Dennis Cirkin in January and bring him back from Sunderland is that he's a homegrown Tottenham player, which would help with that situation."
"Cirkin is out of contract at Sunderland at the end of the season, and the Black Cats could be willing to cash in on him in the middle of the season and get a transfer fee."
Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Dennis Cirkin from Sunderland in the January transfer window. Cirkin left Tottenham for Sunderland in 2021 and has become one of Sunderland's most important players. Tottenham's Champions League squad omission of Mathys Tel reduced available squad spots under homegrown rules, leaving only 22 places. Losing three homegrown spots creates pressure on squad composition. Re-signing Cirkin would count as a homegrown Tottenham player and help address that quota issue. Cirkin's contract at Sunderland expires at the end of the season, and Sunderland could be willing to sell him mid-season to secure a transfer fee.
