No room in the squad due to the homegrown rules I believe. Dele has to be replaced with a homegrown I believe. Sabitzer will most likely replace a foreign player instead.

This is a time worth rolling the dice on Sabitzer. If he improves the team then we'll be a shoe in for top 4 (and all that lovely revenue) and lord knows if Liverpool faltered we could try and push them for the title.
Plus he'd be completely integrated into the squad ahead of next season.

Gedson, no?
Gedson is already not in the EL squad and barely makes room in the prem.
Could work but who do we drop from the EL squad to make room for Sabitzer? We could drop Lucas but he is our top scorer in the competition.
Sanchez, I assume.
Considering we have Alderwiereld, Dier, Davies and Tanganga available.
I assumed that Sanchez spot would go to Rodon.
This is getting tricky. In the prem it would not be an issue but if we get a weapon like Sabitzer in we would want him in the EL as well.
Might as well just not register Lamela in the expectation he won’t be available anyway.
I'd honestly de-list Lucas from the EL if it came down to it. But it feels mad disrespectful to de-list our current top goal scorer in the EL this season.
If we could move him on it would solve the issue of course.
Sign Sabitzer please.
No. Neither Gedson nor Gazzaniga are in EL squad, so does not create any space if they leave, Same with Rose
Need to sell the likes of Sissoko, Lamela or Mours probably
What about if we remove Winks and Dele? To allow space for Sabitzer?
Or does it have to be a foreign spot?
Winks, Whiteman, Bale and Kane are Club trained. (4) Dele, Clarke and Hart (one short) are the Association trained players.
Tanganga is u21.
Need to move on an overseas trained player as we have the maximum 17 already in EL squad PLUS Gedson and Gazzaniga.
If we sell Sanchez we can fit Rodon into EL squad
.
In a heartbeat.
Just a question of finding a buyer.
No buyers in summer for Aurier et al. Hence no leavers (except KWP as part of Hobjerg deal)
That's fair.
I don't think Rodon is particularly that good but it's probably worth having him in the squad if Jose sees his future here over Davison.
Yeah not sure who'd be in for Sanchez at the moment. Barnet?
Bringing in Rodon suggests that Mourhino sees him as having a big future - Alderweireld will be gone this summer (or possibly a year later), Sanchez too, so leaves Spurs to build CB's around Dier, Roddon and Tanganga plus one or two other bought in.
I don't see him loaning Rodon out either
Id hoped Rodon would be the one to finally rid Dier of our pain. Considering he plays left sided centre back and counts as HG.
Maybe next season.
Rodon counts as HG for PL, but is overseas trained for EL
