  • Wolves and Spurs to fight for Danso
  • The defender was set for a medical at Molineux
  • However, Spurs seem to be the frontrunners now

  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    Wolves had been on the verge of completing a deal for the 26-year-old Austrian international, with agreements in place and a medical scheduled for Sunday. However, in a late twist, Danso’s representatives informed Wolves on Saturday night that the move was off, citing Tottenham’s interest as a key reason for the change of plans, according to The Telegraph.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    The centre-back, who had a brief spell in the Premier League with Southampton in 2019-20, has been a regular fixture for Lens, making 128 appearances across four seasons. His solid performances in Ligue 1 had attracted attention from multiple clubs, but it now appears that Spurs are leading the race for his signature.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    Initially, Spurs attempted to bring in Fikayo Tomori from AC Milan, but the English defender rejected the move, forcing the club to explore alternative options. They had also expressed interest in Chelsea’s Axel Disasi, but their focus now appears to have shifted entirely to securing Danso.

    For Wolves, losing out on Danso presents a major setback. Strengthening their defensive ranks has been a priority following the summer departure of Maximilian Kilman to West Ham United and the long-term ACL injury suffered by Yerson Mosquera, which ruled him out for the rest of the season.

    WHAT NEXT FOR TOTTENHAM?

    With the deadline fast approaching, Spurs will need to move quickly to finalize a deal for Danso. They have been actively searching for reinforcements throughout the January transfer window with key players like Micky van de Ven, Cristian Romero, Radu Dragusin, and Destiny Udogie all injured.
