Leeds United to be gutted by Archie Gray Tottenham news amid January development
Tottenham are reportedly expecting loan bids for Archie Gray in January in a move which will leave Leeds United fans gutted after losing him less than six months ago.
The 18-year-old departed the Whites in the summer for a fee in the region of £30million [BBC Sport] in a blow to supporters.
Now key figures at Spurs are anticipating offers in the upcoming January transfer window, forcing them to decide whether to let the versatile midfielder go [GiveMeSport, 30 October].
The ex-Leeds star is still said to be highly rated by Ange Postecoglou despite finding himself low down the pecking order.
A loan move could be utilised with a number of interested parties in the 18-year-old’s signature but there is no suggestion that a permanent move away will be allowed.
Archie Gray could leave Tottenham so soon after Leeds United departure
The Englishman was so highly rated at Elland Road that it came as no surprise that a club with the stature of Spurs wanted to sign him.
After a positive preseason, it felt as if Gray was going to have a part to play in Postecoglou’s system this campaign, but that hasn’t been the case.
The versatile midfielder has featured in just 34 Premier League minutes this campaign while playing the majority of his football in the Europa League and EFL Cup.
With links to the Championship and Premier League, supporters at Elland Road could be keen to see him return, especially with injuries to Ethan Ampadu and Ilia Gruev.
If there is any chance that Daniel Farke can bring him back, the club have to do everything they can.
This deal would feel somewhat unrealistic given the level that Tottenham are likely to want him to be at before returning for next season if he does make a loan move away.
