Spurs set price for out of favour midfielder

 

Tottenham have set a £10m asking price on Nail Bentaleb’s head this summer, reports the Independent. 

 

The Algerian is surplus to requirements at White Hart Lane having fallen down the Spurs pecking order under Mauricio Pochettino. 

 

The 21-year-old made his Premier League bow under Tim Sherwood and made 25 league starts in Pochettino’s debut campaign in north London. 

 

However, Injuries and a dip in form saw Bentaleb forced into just two league starts last season with Spurs now willing to cut their ties with the midfielder.

Bentaleb still has four years left to run on his current contract at White Hart Lane, so Spurs are under no pressure to sell, but a lack of suitors means the club could consider a loan deal for the youngster. 

 

Alex Pritchard and Federico Fazio are among the players told by Pochettino that they have no future at the club.
