Amidst reports linking Tottenham Hotspur with an audacious move for Morgan Rogers, Sky Sports journalist Michael Bridge has revealed whether there is any truth to the transfer rumours.
After missing out on Eberechi Eze in embarrassing fashion, there is no doubt that Daniel Levy and the Spurs hierarchy need to make some statement signings before the window closes to appease the Tottenham fan base.
Some reports indicate that they are now attempting to do just that by trying to poach Aston Villa’s best player.
A number of outlets have now reported that Tottenham view Morgan Rogers as their ‘dream signing’ and have made contact over a deal for the 23-year-old.
It has been claimed by several sources that Spurs would have to shatter their transfer record to bring Rogers through the door.
However, according to Sky Sports reporter Michael Bridge, there is no chance of that happening before the window slams shut on September 1.
In fact, the journalist took to social media to claim that there is no truth to suggestions that Spurs have initiated contact over a move for Rogers.

Bridge has solid sources at Tottenham and is usually reliable when it comes to news related to the North London club.
However, The Independent’s Miguel Delaney is convinced that Spurs have made a move through intermediaries to explore a move for Rogers.
When it was pointed out to Delaney that Bridge had contradictory information on the matter, he insisted that he was confident in his own sources.
