Spurs slumped to a fourth straight Premier League loss as strugglers Leicester fought back from a goal down to claim their first win in nine games at a mutinous Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The home fans aimed chants of 'we want Levy out' at watching chairman Daniel Levy as Ange Postecoglou's injury-hit side conceded twice in four minutes straight after half-time. They then booed at the final whistle as Spurs' dismal season hit a new low.

The hosts had led courtesy of Richarlison's first-half header from Pedro Porro's cross but Jamie Vardy levelled from Bobby De Cordova-Reid's low cross only 57 seconds after the break.

The hosts were stunned by the equaliser and conceded what turned out to be the decisive goal when they backed off and allowed Bilal El Khannouss to find the bottom corner from outside the box.

Spurs came into the game having enjoyed some respite from their wretched Premier League form with a Europa League win at Hoffenheim but it came at a cost, with James Maddison joining their double-figure injury list due to "soreness" from that game.

Richarlison's goal put them in command at half-time but Leicester exposed their defensive vulnerability ruthlessly, with Vardy and El Khannouss turning the game on its head in front of the delirious travelling fans, whose celebrations contrasted with the discontent of the home supporters.

Spurs tried to rally, with Porro's deflected free-kick striking the crossbar, but they lacked ideas otherwise in the latter stages, with Heung-Min Son having twice been denied by Leicester goalkeeper Jakub Stolarczyk in the first half.

The defeat extends their winless run to seven Premier League games, deepening the sense of crisis at the club and keeping them in 15th place in the table. Leicester, meanwhile, climb out of the relegation zone into 17th.

Levy was the main target for the home fans' ire but there were also boos for Postecoglou's decision to withdraw goalscorer Richarlison, although the Spurs boss later explained the forward was "feeling his groin" having only recently returned from injury.

Spurs' woes in stats

Spurs lost their 13th Premier League game of the season. Only Leicester, Wolves and Southampton have lost more.

Spurs have failed to win any of their last seven Premier League games (D1 L6), their longest winless run in the top-flight since a nine-match stint between May and October 2008.

Spurs have now dropped 21 points from winning positions in the Premier League this season, the most by any side in the division.

Lauren Price: I'll win every round against Natasha Jonas

Eubank Jr and Benn - the sons of great rivals Chris Eubank and Nigel Benn - were originally meant to face each other in October 2022, only for the latter to fail two drug tests.

Benn's two-year battle to clear his name saw his suspension lifted in November.

Since the cancelled fight over two years ago, Eubank Jr lost to Liam Smith but won the rematch in 2023 and only fought once in 2024, with a stoppage victory over Kamil Szeremeta.

Benn spent 525 days out of the ring before boxing in America, beating Mexican Rodolfo Orozco in September 2023 in Florida, then Peter Dobson in Las Vegas last February. He took both of those wins by unanimous decision.

Yarde, Billiam-Smith feature on stacked undercard

An all-British showdown tops the undercard, with Anthony Yarde and Lydon Arthur continuing their pursuits of global light-heavyweight titles.

Liam Smith returns to the ring for the first time since he was knocked out by Eubank Jr in September 2023 against Aaron McKenna, who puts his 19-fight unbeaten record on the line.

Latest from Sky Sports News' Dharmesh Sheth:

Arsenal will work until the final seconds to try and improve the squad on Deadline Day.

A forward remains a priority - but Mikel Arteta is insistent it has to be the right player.

He said "anything is possible" following yesterday's 5-1 win over Manchester City.

Interest in Bayern Munich’s Mathys Tel remains. And lines of communication between the clubs is open.

Tel one of a number of players they are looking at.

Bayern will allow him to leave but prefer a permanent deal - or at least a loan with an obligation.

It's possible Arsenal won't sign anyone on Deadline Day - and revert to their plans for the summer.

‘It’s possible’ | Arteta hints at transfer activity on deadline day

Mikel Arteta hinted that Arsenal may be active on deadline day as they continue to try to acquire forward reinforcements.

Trabzonspor 'working' on Onuachu deal

Trabzonspor are still working on a deal for Southampton star Paul Onuachu, according to the Daily Mirror.

The Nigerian international impressed on loan at the Turkish side last season and they are reportedly keen to bring him back.

'Asensio deal close but Villa hoping for no further bids for Watkins'

Sky Sports News reporter Kirsty Edwards at Villa Park:

"We are expecting confirmation of the Marco Asensio deal.

"He'll bring a wealth of experience to Aston Villa after winning it all with Real Madrid.

"The question, like with Marcus Rashford, is how match fit will he be and can he hit the ground running, but it is another positive addition to the Villa forward line.

"Two things then remain for Villa. One is a centre back because we've seen how short they are in that position because of injuries. Axel Disasi is a key target.

"The other thing Villa fans will be hoping is that there are no further bids for Ollie Watkins."

When are the deadlines?

Here are the key times to look out for today...

Al Ahli set to sign Porto star Galeno

Saudi club Al Ahli have agreed a €50m deal with Porto to sign Wenderson Galeno.

'A day of departures for Chelsea'

Sky Sports News reporter Jamie Weir at Stamford Bridge:

"In terms of incomings, it looks like it is going to be a quiet day for Chelsea.

"The name of Man Utd winger Alejandro Garnacho continues to tumble around, but there's been no advanced talks between the clubs over him.

"But today is going to be a day of departues for Chelsea, and of course, there's a match to look forward to tonight as the Blues host West Ham."

Celtic reject opening West Ham bid for Cummings

Latest from Sky Sports News' Anthony Joseph and Dharmesh Sheth:

Celtic have rejected West Ham’s opening bid for striker Daniel Cummings.

Talks are ongoing with the Hammers considering an improved offer.

It’s understood the Premier League club made a bid in the region of £500,000 for the 18-year-old.

Cummings has agreed terms on a pre-contract but West Ham are pushing to sign him in this window.

He’s been a prolific scorer for the Celtic B team this season and he made his senior debut against Aston Villa in the Champions League on Wednesday.

'Fresh start for Ward-Prowse under Potter'

Former Premier League striker Charlie Austin on Sky Sports News:

"James Ward-Prowse is heading back to West Ham to work under a new manager in Graham Potter.

"He has to see it like a fresh start and a new opportunity.

"Hopefully West Ham give him the chance to show what he can do."

Will Rashford be guaranteed a first-team role at Villa?

Sky Sports' Patrick Rowe:

"Rashford has played his best football on the left so this move arrives at an interesting time for Villa given Jacob Ramsey looks to be recapturing his finest form.

"The 23-year-old scored against West Ham and provided two assists against Celtic. If he maintains this run, there are no guarantees that Rashford will have the starting role he desires at Villa.

"Versatility is held in high regard by Emery so playing with Watkins up front or out on the right, given Leon Bailey's struggles, are also possibilities.

"The other problem is which Rashford Villa will get. Emery has a track record of getting the best out of players so if he could get him close to the player we saw in 2022/23, who scored 17 goals in the Premier League, it's a gamble worth taking for Villa.

"But as the saga with Jhon Duran also demonstrated, Emery has little-to-no patience for off-the-field antics."

Ward-Prowse heads back to West Ham

Latest from Sky Sports News' Rob Dorsett and Dharmesh Sheth:

Nottingham Forest have agreed with West Ham to terminate James Ward-Prowse's loan deal.

He has only made three late substitute appearances in the Premier League since Christmas.

There was no recall option, but the clubs have mutually agreed.

Rashford can 'prove the doubters wrong' at Villa

Former Premier League striker Charlie Austin on Sky Sports News:

"I think it''s a good move for both Villa and Rashford, because if he goes there and performs then it's great for Villa.

"They are pushing in the right direction. But he has to hit the ground running and prove the doubters wrong."

'Arteta wants a forward in'

Sky Sports News' Gary Cotterill at Emirates Stadium:

"What buzz there was at this stadium on Sunday. Five goals and an incredible performance in beating Man City.

"The five goals came from all over the pitch, five different goal scorers, and that has tended to be the Arsenal way.

"The fans came away from the game buzzing and if anything, perhaps that has taken the pressure off the recruiters here at Arsenal a little bit to try and find that out-an-out 25 to 30 goal a season striker.

"But Mikel Arteta would still like one. He had a glint in his eye when he was asked after the match if there would be a signing. He said: "Anything can happen."

"We know that those looking at the market are looking short-term, medium-term, long-term for anyone that can improve the squad.

"There have been all kinds of strikers linked this January. Top of the list as we go into Deadline Day are Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins and Mathys Tel.

"The difficulty with Watkins is Villa don't want him to go, even though the player might be keen. With Tel, it's different. The player himself doesn't seem keen to leave Bayern Munich on a permanent deal or on a loan with an obligation, event though the club seem happy for him to leave."

What can Man City expect from Gonzalez?

Football expert Sam Tighe on the Transfer Talk podcast:

"He's a good player. He came through at Barcelona along with Gavi and Pedri, and was seen as like the more kind of physical, sort of dominant holding player of the three.

"And there was a nice dream that Pedri and Gavi and Nico Gonzalez would rise through the ranks together.

"Pedri is a bit older than the other two but as a trio, they are La Masia born and bred and they've got the perfect skill set.

"It's the No 6, it's the No 8, it's the No 10. Oh, look, it's Busquets, Xavi and Iniseta reborn.

"It hasn't really happened, obviously. Lots of Barcelona financial issues playing into all of that, and injuries to both of the others too.

"Nico has ended up at Porto and has kind of flourished. We know that players coming over from Porto and Benfica and the Portuguese League, they tend to adapt really, really well.

"Nico's a good player. And I think he does bring that frame and that physicality that Rodri has, that City have really lacked without him.

"He's 6ft 2ins and a strong boy. All the other players they have in there, don't really fit that brief.

"And we've all watched City getting played through in midfield all season long, thinking why can't you shut down attacks?

"Nico is an attempt to fix that. But my one question over it is, if this was the answer all along, why wasn't it done 33 days earlier?

"We know that they sort of approached this deal at around £40m and ended up paying £60m, probably because it was so late.

"That would suggest that this is no perfect solution. However, they were clearly feeling the pressure of time and felt like they had to do something because right now they're not guaranteed to finish in the top four.

"Forget the title. And Nico is probably as good an attempt at fixing this as I can really see on the market at this late stage."

Villa and Galatasaray only teams to engage over Rashford deal

Sky Sports News' Melissa Reddy:

"It was evident that Ruben Amorim was frustrated with the forward's lifestyle and lack of application, and from the moment Marcus Rashford stated he was ready for a new challenge, it was clear that he did not intend to change his habits at the club.

"Despite all the links, the noise and the PR, the fact was that the only teams to engage United over arranging a temporary move were Galatasaray and Aston Villa, the latter acting in response to losing Jhon Duran to Al Nassr.

"Borussia Dortmund enquired over the terms of a loan, while AC Milan and Barcelona spoke to Rashford's camp. The former actively pursued Kyle Walker instead and the Catalans made it very clear that contract renewals were their priority.

"At United, it was well known prior to this season that the 27-year-old was coveting a move to Barcelona. Juventus, meanwhile, prioritised Randal Kolo Muani and got that switch sealed."

'Danso will fit in with Angeball'

Football expert Sam Tighe on Kevin Danso, speaking on the Transfer Talk podcast:

"He's a good defender. He's comfortable with the ball at his feet.

"He's seven out of 10 in most categories.So that's that's that's a that's a big tick. I like that.

"When he plays for Austria, he plays super aggressive high line football .Obviously, we know the Austrians press like crazy under Ralf Rangnick.

"So if you're asking if he suits Ange Postecoglou's style, I would say we have enough evidence to say yes.

"And with that athleticism, it means that he can recover in behind as well.

"It's a nice second crack at Premier League football for him because a lot of people won't know that he went on loan to Southampton a few years ago and it just went disastrously for him.It was not really his fault.

"I think he played most of his football from left back under Ralf Hasenhuttl. He made about six appearances and then just disappeared again.

"But Danso spent a lot of time in England as a youngster in the academies, MK Dons and other places.

"So actually, he's been waiting for this for a long time, this crack at Premier League football. It went horribly the first time. I'm really pleased for him that he gets another go at it."

How Spurs' long pursuit of Tel unfolded...

Sky Sports News senior reporter Dharmesh Sheth on the Transfer Talk podcast:

"This whole story started quite early in the window, and it was Chelsea who started it off.

"They were the ones who were interested in him because Bayern Munich were trying to do a deal for Christopher Nkunku.

"We thought that that would ease the passage for Tel to go to Stamford Bridge. That one kind of came and went pretty quickly. And then towards the last week of the window, there was lots of interest in him.

"On Friday, Tottenham agreed £50 million with Bayern for a permanent deal for Tel.

"Daniel Levy reportedly went out to Munich to convince the player. He couldn't convince the player and he said, ‘I don't want to go to Tottenham. I would prefer to go to either Manchester United, Arsenal or Aston Villa.’

"But they weren't really pursuing it as hard as probably Tel would have wanted – and the big intervention came from Ange Postocoglou.

"He calls up Tel, has a long conversation with him and says, ‘this is how I want you to play, this is how I see you playing, this is how much football you're going to get.’

“And he convinced him. And at the time, we thought it was just going to be a loan deal. But it turns out that that loan is coming with an option.

“And if he does sign the option, I think Spurs will pay around £50m-52m. He'll sign a six year contract. That's if Tottenham do take up the option to sign him.”

Rashford 360: How his wild window ended up as a Villa player

Sky Sports News senior reporter Dharmesh Sheth on the Transfer Talk podcast:

"Milan wanted to do a deal. They ended up getting Kyle Walker because of their non-EU player rule, so that was out of the equation.

"Borussia Dortmund wanted to do a deal, rather like they did with Jadon Sancho. Last January, the finances simply would not work.

“Marcus Rashford himself, his preference, was to go to Barcelona. But if you want to find a club who's got financial problems, then Barcelona will come top of that list. And they would have had to create all sorts of salary space to even contemplate a deal for Rashford.

"And all of these deals would have required Manchester United to pay a substantial portion of Rashford's wages, which they were really pretty loathe to do. Because this, as far as they're concerned, was of Rashford's making.

"We had this long, drawn-out saga where his agents and his brother and his representatives were going all around Europe, hawking off Rashford, basically, to clubs who couldn't effectively afford to do that deal.

"And then come February 2, he finally gets his move. Now, that is a pretty long time to sort out a move, considering that you've said you want to go.

“Man Utd had to make it work for them. I was told that it was Aston Villa, plus one other unnamed Premier League club, who made viable financial arrangements to try and sign Rashford which would have been acceptable to Man Utd.

“Rashford will move to Villa on loan, with an option to buy for around £40m. But for the loan, Aston Villa will pay a minimum of 75 per cent of Rashford's wages.

“That could go up to 90 per cent, depending on Rashford's performances, his appearances, his goals, and how well Aston Villa do for the rest of the season.

“So, for me, because they've attached this option, because there was all this talk that it was just going to be a straight loan, I just wonder whether we've seen Marcus Rashford kick his last ball for the club.”

Disasi explains why he chose Villa
