Tottenham set to make decision on Antonin Kinsky exit after key transfer development
Plans are starting to align for Tottenham’s January transfer window.
The Lewis family have stamped their authority at Tottenham with their latest £100m cash injection sending a clear message to potential buyers.
Spurs boss Thomas Frank will be hoping for reinforcements in the January window as he looks to capitalise on what has been a good start to the season.
Mohammed Kudus has been a revelation of a signing, but another one of Tottenham‘s recent acquisitions may be set to depart after a short stay at N17.
Antonin Kinsky could leave as Tottenham look for a new goalkeeper
Goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky made a good first impression last season when he debuted for Spurs with a Man of the Match performance against Liverpool in the Carabao Cup.

Since then, Kinsky has faced criticism for performances as Guglielmo Vicario has taken back the number one spot for the Lilywhites.
The now 22-year-old Kinsky has only featured once this campaign, which came in Tottenham’s 3-0 victory over Doncaster, as the latest update means he may have to pack his bags in January.
According to Dean Jones, Tottenham have begun exploring options around signing another goalkeeper.
No names have been linked with Tottenham yet, as it’s also not been revealed whether or not Frank‘s side is looking for a first-choice goalkeeper or back-up.
However, with mixed opinions on Vicario, Tottenham could splash out on a first-choice keeper.
Why Kinsky will most likely leave Tottenham in January
Vicario has recorded incredible stats after starting all seven of Tottenham’s opening Premier League games; however, the Italian has faced heavy criticism in the past.
Even if Tottenham were to spend big on a new goalkeeper, that doesn’t necessarily mean Vicario will leave the club, as the Lilywhites could see it as an opportunity to push the goalkeeper to improve.
Kinsky, on the other hand, is in a lose-lose situation, as Spurs could very well be targeting a new back-up goalkeeper that they feel is more reliable than the Czech shot-stopper.
A loan move for Kinsky would be the most sensible option for Spurs, as they could look to raise the goalkeeper’s transfer value before a sale.
