Tottenham ready to make final £15m bid to land Jack Grealish from Championship side Aston Villa
Spurs’ chairman Daniel Levy aims to put their cash woes to the test — they must find £11m for outstanding payments
TOTTENHAM are to make a £15million take-it-or-leave-it bid for Jack Grealish.
Spurs’ chairman Daniel Levy aims to put Championship Aston Villa’s cash woes to the test.
Villa’s board met yesterday to discuss how to avoid a winding-up order — the club must find £11m this month for outstanding player payments.
Chairman Tony Xia wanted a bidding war for midfielder Grealish ,22, to ease Villa’s budget by £40m and satisfy Financial Fair Play.
A rumoured Chelsea bid has yet to materialise and Levy may take advantage.
Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino is also looking at Norwich midfield ace James Maddison, 21.

Meanwhile, Mousa Dembele is at the centre of a three-way tussle for his signature in Italy.
Serie A giants Juventus, Inter Milan and Napoli are all interested in signing the Belgian, who looks likely to leave Spurs this summer.
Dembele is in the final 12 months of his contract and the North Londoners would be willing to listen to offers upwards of £30m.
Inter could take a backward step in their pursuit should they complete a deal to sign Radja Nainggolan from Roma.
