Blackpool lodge Tottenham player enquiry

Blackpool are trying to secure the loan signing of Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Harvey White this month, according to Football Insider.

The report states that the Seasiders are one of several EFL clubs who are battling for his signature during the late stages of this transfer window.

The 21-year-old recently made his Premier League debut for the North London club as Spurs mull over what his immediate future will look like.

Leicester City saw an initial bid rejected for Stoke’s Harry Souttar in the week and a further report from Football Insider indicates that they are set to up their bid to £15 million.

The 24-year-old’s, whose stock has been raised after a fantastic World Cup with Australia, is certainly one of the finest defenders in the division.

It remains to be seen if this is a figure that the Championship club are impressed with, or if they will knock back the Premier League outfit’s second approach.

Middlesbrough are considering a seven-figure move for Leeds United defender Charlie Cresswell, as per a report from The Sun.

The report states that Sunderland are keen on a loan move for the 20-year-old, whilst Boro are inuring about the possibility of the defender signing permanently.

Cresswell is still on loan at Millwall, however, he has been restricted to one appearance from the bench in the last six games as speculation about his immediate future continues.
