Tottenham turn down Sunderland loan bid for Kevin Danso
Spurs have rejected Sunderland's request to take centre‑back Kevin Danso on a season‑long loan, leaving his future at the club uncertain.
Tottenham Hotspur have rejected Sunderland’s season‑long loan offer for Austrian centre‑back Kevin Danso.
Danso featured as a second‑half substitute in Spurs’ Carabao Cup victory over Charlton, marking his first appearance of the campaign.
His prospects for regular first‑team action appear limited after the arrivals of Marcos Senesi and Jan Paul van Hecke, while Micky van de Ven has signed a new deal and been appointed captain.
The 27‑year‑old joined Tottenham on loan from Lens in January 2025 and secured a permanent transfer later that year for £20.9 million, having already made 37 appearances for the club.
A season‑long loan typically sees the borrowing club assume a portion of the player’s wages and may include recall clauses or options to buy, depending on the agreement. For context, Tottenham recently arranged a loan of Omar Marmoush with a future purchase . Sunderland’s interest now hinges on whether they will pursue the deal further.
