Tottenham fans relieved as Alderweireld set to stay

Tottenham fans had a pretty miserable deadline day, but the end of the transfer window did bring some good news – Toby Alderweireld will not join Manchester United.Tottenham fans were raging yesterday when they became the first Premier League club since 2003 to not sign a single player in the summer transfer window.Daniel Levy looked to be tying up a deal for Jack Grealish in the closing weeks of the window, but his low-balling and waiting game backfired, and Aston Villa’s new leadership blocked the sale.[brid autoplay=”true” video=”278420″ player=”12034″ title=”Pochettino Has Been Betrayed By Daniel Levy”]However, despite all the disappointment, the fact that Alderweireld will not join a direct rival is a huge relief.The Belgian beast had seemingly been stalling on a new contract, and was heavily linked with a switch to Old Trafford.He could still leave to a European club, and while that would leave Pochettino quite short of options at the back, it is a million times better than sending him to Old Trafford.You can find some of the best Twitter reactions down below…
