Spurs news: Janssen departs, Foyth's Champions League boost, Lo Celso deal

It's a busy time for Tottenham.

The club are in the Far East, taking part in the International Champions Cup, where they have already beaten Juventus 3-2.

Another game follows on Thursday, against Manchester United, but back at home, work continues apace on summer trnsfers.

Here are the latest stories doing the rounds from Spurs in the past 24 hours.

Janssen departs

Vincent Janssen's Tottenham nightmare is over.

The striker has reached an agreement with Mexican side C.F. Monterrey for the transfer of the 25-year-old who made 42 appearances for the north London side.

He fell out of favour under Mauricio Pochettino, and while he was brought in from the cold towards the end of last season, the writing was on the wall for him.

While many fans took to social media to send their wishes to the frontman, the others had only one thing on their mind.

Read all about that here.

Foyth boost

Young defender Juan Foyth has handed Tottenham a Champions League boost.

And it's from nothing he's done himself.

Spurs have had plenty of issues in recent seasons with too many foreign player for their European squad and it impacted on what players they could them target during the transfer windows.

Manager Mauricio Pochettino had to make the tough decision to leave certain players out of the Champions League squad. Young Argentine defender Foyth missed out on a year of football in the world's biggest club competition as there was simply no space.

But he has freed up a space in the Champions League squad for next season.

Here's why.

Lo Celso deal

The Argentinian has been on Spurs' radar for much of the summer so far, and he was tipped to be a replacement for Christian Eriksen.

However, Eriksen may yet stay with Spurs, and that does not mean a Lo Celso move will end.

Here's what we know about the transfer and when it could be completed.

Dele Alli learning

Dele Alli's 2018/19 was not his best.

But as a young man, he has few seasons to compare it to.

The fact that he scorched onto the scene with some stunning displays does not help him when it comes to having a slight dip in form.

The 23-year-old had a tough season with injuries and was often playing in a deeper role, where he was unable to reach the levels of goalscoring in his previous campaigns.

But Alli intends to learn from it and come back stronger.

Read what he has had to say about the upcoming season here.
