The Athletic have revealed that Tottenham Hotspur stood a serious chance of landing Jacob Ramsey earlier this summer but the move fell through after Aston Villa’s position changed.

Tottenham wanted Jacob Ramsey
The report reveals that Spurs had pushed ahead with a move for Ramsey soon after the transfer window opened and by late June, the transfer was very much on the cards.
However, just then, Villa managed to sell Omari Kellyman to Chelsea for £19m before they got another £42m from Douglas Luiz’s move to Juventus.
This meant that the dynamic had changed, and they were in a comfortable position with respect to PSR, thus making the sale of Ramsey unnecessary.

Aston Villa do not need to sell
It is pointed out that Unai Emery’s men now have even more financial breathing space after selling Moussa Diaby to Al Ittihad for £50m last week.
As a result, the Midlands club are under no pressure to let go of their academy graduate, with Ramsey now said to be focused on preparing for another season at Villa Park.
It seems Spurs will have to look elsewhere for midfield reinforcements this summer.
Spurs Web Opinion
With Ramsey now looking set to stay at Villa, with Gallagher seemingly heading to Atletico and with the Eze deal looking complicated, it seems like Tottenham’s quest to sign a homegrown midfielder is getting increasingly more complicated.
Even the more reliable journalists don’t seem to know what Spurs are doing this summer. Hopefully, that means secret deals and not just complete inactivity behind the scenes.
