Tottenham midfielder Mousa Dembele tops list of players Mauricio Pochettino wants to sell
MOUSA DEMBELE tops a list of stars Tottenham plan to offload.
Boss Mauricio Pochettino wants to freshen up his squad in January after not making a single signing last summer.
Belgian World Cup midfielder Dembele, 31, will be out of contract at the end of the season.
He could go for nothing if he does not move in January or agree a new deal.
Poch will also listen to offers for out-of-favour duo Victor Wanyama and Georges-Kevin Nkoudou.
And the Argentinian coach who Real Madrid are desperate to land also wants to axe £17million flop striker Vincent Janssen.

But Danny Rose is set to stay after forcing his way back into Poch’s plans.
Hugo Lloris was sent off in Spurs' 2-2 Champions League draw with PSV that saw their European hopes go up in flames.
But that error has not seen Poch's star dim.
Real are making a last-ditch attempt to sign Pochettino following their poor start to the season under Julen Lopetegui.
And it appears Los Blancos chiefs have turned their back on ex-Chelsea boss Antonio Conte.
His brother and agent Daniele revealed they have had “no contact” with Real.
He declared: “Antonio is on holiday, he has not received any calls from Real Madrid. Yes, Real is a great team but there has been no contact.”
