Danny Rose News

England Under-21 international Sessegnon has been on Tottenham`s radar throughout the close season and they are reported to have paid a transfer fee that could rise to 30 million pounds ($36.4 million).

Pochettino has always had lofty ambitions for Spurs, ever since he took charge in 2014 and talked about the need to change the club`s mentality after repeatedly finishing outside the Premier League`s top four.

England`s 5-1 rout of Montenegro in Podgorica in March was soured by racist abuse from fans and the hosts were ordered to play their next European competition match behind closed doors as part of sanctions handed out by UEFA.

As it turned out, the penalty awarded by VAR against Danny Rose for handball was missed by Sergio Aguero and Tottenham went on to earn a crucial 1-0 win in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final at their new ground.

UEFA have opened an investigation after England players Danny Rose, Raheem Sterling and Callum Hudson-Odoi said they were victims of the abuse during their 5-1 win in Podgorica.

Vertonghen doubled Tottenham`s lead in the 83rd minute when he got on the end of Serge Aurier`s cross, but it was his assist for the first goal that was one of the main talking points of the match.

EPL was the earliest of the major European leagues to start this season, kicking off on Aug. 10, a week before Spain`s La Liga and Italy`s Serie A.  

England defender Danny Rose has told his family not to attend the World Cup because he fears they may be racially abused in Russia.

The Danish international`s uncanny habit of scoring against Sunderland made for a second miserable trip to north London in a week for Sam Allardyce`s men.
