Fikayo Tomori has chosen not to join Tottenham after they agreed to pay £25m for his transfer.

Could Fikayo Tomori, the talented AC Milan star, be making a move to Tottenham? Recent reports suggest that this may not be the case, as Tomori has apparently declined the opportunity to join the London team. This comes as yet another setback for Ange Postecoglou, who has been facing a string of transfer disappointments.

It all started when it was announced on Friday evening that Tottenham had made a surprising bid for Tomori. With their defence struggling due to injuries to key players, the club was eager to secure a deal with the former Chelsea centre-back. It seemed like it was all coming together when they agreed in principle with Milan for a £25m transfer fee, the same amount the Italian giants paid for Tomori's services in 2021. But it now appears that the player has had a change of heart.

Sky Italy has reported that after discussions with Tottenham, Tomori has decided to stay at the San Siro. This comes as a blow to Spurs, who were also facing competition from Juventus and Aston Villa for Tomori's signature. This news comes on the heels of another transfer snub, with Mathys Tel rejecting a £50m move to Tottenham in order to remain at Bayern Munich.

With the January transfer window set to close on Monday night, Tottenham are in desperate need of reinforcements in defence. And it seems they have set their sights on another surprise target - Chelsea's Axel Disasi. According to various sources, including the Telegraph, the 26-year-old could be on his way to Tottenham as he has no future at Chelsea under Enzo Maresca.

Disasi has struggled to make an impact since joining Chelsea in 2023 and the club is now looking to offload him after recalling Trevoh Chalobah from his loan at Crystal Palace. It is believed that Aston Villa have already agreed on personal terms with the Frenchman, but Tottenham could still swoop in and hijack the deal. Chelsea are open to letting Disasi leave on loan, but they would prefer to include an obligation to buy or a significant loan fee in the deal.

Only time will tell if Tottenham will be able to secure a deal for either Tomori or Disasi before the transfer deadline. But one thing is for sure - they are in desperate need of defensive reinforcements and are willing to take some risks in order to strengthen their squad. Will they be successful in their pursuit? We will just have to wait and see.
