In FourFourTwos view, speculation over a Spurs move for Pisilli - who is valued at 12million by Transfermarkt and is under contract until the summer of 2029 - would look to be somewhat premature at this stage.Spurs are fairly well stocked when it comes to young, central midfield players and should they beat the drop this season, they will have bigger squad issues to fill and would be best served bringing in proven Premier League talents.Talk of a swap deal involving Udogie also appears far fetched, given that the Spurs defenders Transfermarkt value is almost three times that of Pisilli at 35million.TOPICSTransfer newsJoe MewisSocial Links NavigationFor more than a decade, Joe Mewis has worked in football journalism as a reporter and editor.
