Tottenham defender Tony Alderweireld wants to leave Tottenham this summer.
The Belgium international, whose interest in the Euros was ended by #defeat to Italy ion their quarter-final defeat to Italy in Munich on Friday night, is now hopeful a move can be pushed through this summer.
Spurs, who are looking to rebuild their defence under new Director of Football Fabio Paratici,, are unlikely to stand in his way if they receive the right offer for the 32-year old, who has spent six seasons with them in North London.
Alderweireld is attracting interest from clubs in Italy and Spain, and has also been linked with a return to former side Ajax.
There is also the possibility of a return to Royal Antwerp, the club where he started his career, before moving to Ajax, with Alderweireld publicly saying that he would like to play for them again at some point in his career.
