Tottenham are considering a move for Borussia Monchengladbach midfielder Florian Neuhaus, according to reports.

Dele Alli continues to be linked with a loan move to Paris Saint-Germain, who hope to complete a deal for the England international before the transfer window closes next week.

Ultimately, though, Alli’s short-term future could be determined by Tottenham’s search for a replacement.

Jose Mourinho’s side are tracking various options, with the Daily Mirror naming Neuhaus as a player Tottenham are keen on.

“In every dressing room are unhappy players,” Mourinho said when asked about the former MK Dons man last week. 

“For sure. If any one of us, of my tribe, tells you that in his dressing room are only happy players, I don’t think it’s true. Or somebody is so, so lucky to have a miracle in his hands. 

“Then you can have [an] unhappy professional and the unhappy professional is the one that is unhappy but feels that his duty is to work, work, work and work. 

“And there is the unhappy that believes that it’s not his job to fight and to work every minute for the squad and for the club.”
