Tottenham Hotspur and Danny Rose will hold decisive talks over the England left-back’s future this week.

Rose’s future at Spurs has been uncertain ever since he publicly criticised the club’s wage structure and transfer policy in a newspaper interview earlier this month. Manchester United and Chelsea are both interested in signing Rose, and he is certainly open to a lucrative move away from Tottenham.

So far there have been no official bids for Rose as Spurs have refused to countenance a move. But chairman Daniel Levy will make his position clear when he meets with Rose’s representatives on Wednesday. This will determine whether there is still enough time this window for Rose to move away or whether he will be at Tottenham for the rest of the season.


If Rose were to move in the final days of the window Tottenham would demand at least as much money as they received from Manchester City for Kyle Walker: an initial £50m with another £4m in add-ons.


Rose, like Walker, signed a five-year deal in September 2016, meaning he has another four seasons left at Spurs, including this one.


Danny Rose apologises to Tottenham for 'ill-judged' interview

Rose and manager Mauricio Pochettino have always been very close but their relationship has cooled after Rose’s controversial comments, which went down badly at Tottenham. He was fined by the club for his outburst and issued an apology for the timing, if not for the content of his comments.

Rose has not played for Spurs since January following a knee ligament injury. He was initially scheduled to return to the team at the end of last season but recovery was slower than expected and he underwent surgery in May to clear up his knee. Rose is still in rehabilitation and is due to return to training in a few weeks

Danny Rose set for decisive talks on Tottenham future - sources

Dan KilpatrickTottenham Correspondent

Danny Rose is set for decisive talks with Tottenham Hotspur this week after a breakdown of his relationship with manager Mauricio Pochettino, sources have told ESPN FC, with Manchester United interested in the defender.

Rose's agent, Mark Rankine, is due to meet to Daniel Levy for crunch talks on Wednesday but the Spurs chairman is expected to reiterate that Rose is not for sale, despite the left-back's desire to leave the club before the transfer deadline.

The sources said that Rose and Pochettino have not spoken privately since the defender's explosive interview with a national newspaper a fortnight ago, even after Rose issued a written apology.

The England international, who was fined two weeks wages' for the outburst, was once so close to Pochettino that he was jokingly referred to as the "gaffer's son" by his teammates but their relationship, which was already cooling, has deteriorated since Rose broke ranks and criticised the club's transfer policy and wage structure.

United boss Jose Mourinho said afterwards that he had "nothing to do with interview" and that Pochettino and Levy "would not be happy" if he commented on the situation.

The sources said United are interested in Rose, although Spurs are yet to receive any bids this summer, and the Yorkshireman -- who has said he will play in the north of England before he retires -- would welcome the chance to move to Old Trafford.

But, with fewer than 10 days remaining in the transfer window, Rose is increasingly resigned to staying at Spurs for now. The 27-year-old has not played since January due to a knee injury and he is not expected to return to full training until next month at the earliest, which further dampens his chances of leaving the club before Aug. 31.

In the interview with The Sun on the eve of the new season, Rose -- who signed a five-year contract worth around £65,000-a-week last September -- questioned Tottenham's ambition, said he should be earning more money and admitted he was open to offers from other clubs.

Speaking on Aug. 11, two days after Rose's interview, Pochettino said he was yet to speak to him but insisted their relationship remained intact, saying: "Nothing has changed in my perception of him."

Pochettino and Levy have the final say on who to buy and sell and, if the club does not allow Rose to leave this month, the manager faces a difficult decision. No player who has crossed Pochettino has ever played for Tottenham again, and Pochettino could either integrate Rose back into the squad when fit or choose not to select him.

That would be ideal Pollo but after Martial start he's had I don't think they will want to get rid.

You mean Martial starting every game from the bench?

Jose, isn't fond of him, and if he wants Rose enough I hope that's the price we would make him pay.

In my dreams, I can see it.

But I don't think we have hope of making that happen.
 
Jose definitely wants Rose or he wouldn't have been as respectful of the situation as he was. Jode not commenting is like a solar eclipse. Rare.

I do believe we will sell, but not now , Jan is a posibility- I have a number of reasons for believing that.

If Manure want him now, they'll have to pay a tapping up penalty that will make even them wince - and that is I'm told going to be in excess of #15 mill of an already hefty valuation., whilst they have money to burn, I'm told that there is no uniform view of his necessity - and that means a brewing conflict on the horizon between Mourinho and the board - and be under no doubt, that ground is already very fertile...imho


I think Jan is a more likely scenario.
 
As soon as his bredgin left this was on the cards they gave the same agent.
Maybe said agent has lost a bit of his clout with us.... just a guess

I think he's gone, no point keeping him now.

Get in Sessegnon and be done with him.

Levy is going to have to pay 30m plus for sessgnon. Fulham know they have a star that is attracting big interest.
 
We would get at least double that for Rose so in today's market I'd say it was worth it. He's going to be a big player in the future no doubt about it.
 
Isn't it a bit of a worry to those who just say sell Rose and get in Sessegnon, that he is a relatively inexperienced teenager who plays in the Championship?
 
Rose wants out. And Dog is right. It's all about the Walker deal and those two having the same agent.

It is naffed. I'd make him stay and play.

Rose is at the height of his powers - losing him would be a huge blow, Davies isn't made in the same mode and without a fast wing back, we'll be weakened - unless of course we can 'find' someone as good or better - and that simply can't be Sessegnon - as good as a prospect that he is - he's currently a couple of tiers away from Roses' standard.

That said, I think Luke Shaw can become better and if the deal involved a swap + money, it might well be a deal worth doing,...
 
I would like to see Anthony Georgiou push on this season. Very strong, fast, sweet left foot but can use his right too. Showed well against Roma but that's all I've seen.

Has anyone seen more of him and thoughts. ? He looks to be a left winger with pace. I can see him with Davies behind operating together.

he's everything you say, saw him a couple of times season before last, but not last season - he's very highly thought of, and I believe his future is likely to be further forward from what was said - but a step back could easily be within his talents - is he good enough?

I haven't seen enough of him to really form a sensible judgement, but he has a growing list of admirers.
