Latest Tottenham transfer rumours: £40m Harry Winks move, AC Milan want Jan Vertonghen

Tottenham Hotspur boosted their chances of securing a top-four finish in the Premier League this season with a dramatic 3-2 victory over Aston Villa at Villa Park on Sunday afternoon.

With the game seemingly poised to end up in a 2-2 draw, Spurs snatched all three points in the dying moments when Heung Min-Son, who had earlier put Jose Mourinho's side 2-1 in front, capitalised on a mistake from Bjorn Engels, broke free and fired the ball beyond Pepe Reina.

It was a huge, huge win for Spurs and one that gave their hopes of securing Champions League football for next season a huge boost.

Aston Villa V Tottenham Hotspur: Match in a minute

But regardless of whether the North Londoners do secure Champions League football next season, you can be guaranteed that Mourinho will want to stamp his own authority on the squad he inherited from former manager Mauricio Pochettino.

With that in mind, here is a round-up of the day's very last Tottenham transfer news.

Manchester United plot Winks swoop

Tottenham midfielder Harry Winks is poised to become the subject of a £40m offer from Manchester United, report the Metro.

Winks, who is a boyhood Spurs fan, has been a key figure for Tottenham this season, racking up 28 appearances for Mourinho's side.

United have been heavily linked with moves for fellow midfielders Jack Grealish and James Maddison this summer, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is keen to add a more defensive-minded midfield man, with Winks fitting that criteria.

Winks is contracted at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium until 2024, meaning any move United wish to make will not come cheaply.

 

Spurs plan to raid Canaries

Tottenham are plotting a double-raid on Norwich City this summer, with the club lining up moves for right-back Max Aarons and centre-back Ben Godfrey.

In what has been a difficult season for the Canaries, who were promoted to the Premier League last term, both Aarons and Godfrey have made great impressions, with their performances most certainly not going unnoticed.

And Spurs are keen to bring the duo to North London this summer. However, if Mourinho is to get his wish it will set the club back by £80million, according to The Sport Review.

This term, Aarons has played 24 times in the league whilst Godfrey has featured on 18 occasions.

AC Milan eye Vertonghen move

Caught Offside are reporting that AC Milan have joined the chase to sign Tottenham centre-back Jan Vertonghen.

The Belgium international, who has been on Spurs' books since 2012, is poised to become a free-agent in the summer, meaning he will be available on a free-transfer.

Spurs, of course, could still tie the defender down to a new deal before his current contract expires in the summer.

However, Milan are sniffing around and could be tempted to make a move for the 32-year-old.
