Tottenham news: Memphis Depay decision made as Paulo Dybala urged to complete Spurs switch

Here is your Tottenham morning digest on Friday, April 1.

Tottenham move on from Memphis Depay

Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Spurs are ‘not prioritising’ a move for Barcelona forward Memphis Depay despite rumours to the contrary. The north Londoners have been linked with a move for the Dutchman ahead of the season, with his future at the Camp Nou up in the air.

However, he does not look likely to be arriving at Spurs. Speaking on his Here We Go podcast, the transfer expert said: “Yes, there are still some rumours about Memphis Depay, especially from Spain about Memphis Depay and Tottenham.

“What I am told is that there is no proposal from Tottenham, it’s something they’re not discussing now and it’s not a priority right now.”

Depay only arrived at Barcelona last summer and has scored 10 goals in 29 appearances in all competitions.

Dybala told to complete Spurs move

Whilst Depay does not look likely to be donning a Spurs shirt next season, Paulo Dybala has been told that a move to north London would be the ‘best fit’. He is set to leave Juventus this summer with his contract set to expire.

Speaking to Premier League productions, Don Hutchinson said: "Tottenham, I think would be the best fit for him. It just depends if he is fit enough and can play most games in the Premier League. It's a different task compared to Serie A and he hasn't played too many games for Juve this season.”

Kulusevski ‘proud’ to play for Spurs

One man who has already made the switch from Turin to north London is Dybala’s former Juventus teammate Dejan Kulusevski. The Swede has been talking about his experience with Spurs so far and has been hugely complimentary.

"It’s an amazing place to be. I’m very proud to represent this club, I’m enjoying my football here and that’s the important thing," the 21-year-old admitted.

"When you’re having fun, you play well, and right now I’m feeling loved, feeling happy to be here, and I enjoy playing with my teammates. I help them and they help me."
