Kevin Danso has left Tottenham Hotspur to complete a loan move to Sunderland on transfer deadline day

Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed that Kevin Danso has left the club to complete a loan move to Sunderland. The deal for Danso could now open the door for Spurs to complete the signing of Tosin Adarabioyo from Chelsea.

As reported by The Athletic, Spurs will receive £2.5million as a loan fee for Danso to move to the Stadium of Light, which will also include an obligation to make the move permanent next summer for a further £22.25million.

The clause that would see Danso leave Tottenham on a permanent basis to join Sunderland will reportedly come into effect if the Wearside outfit avoids relegation from the Premier League.

Danso joined Tottenham in January 2025 from Lens and has made 52 appearances for the club, but has just made one cameo appearance from the bench so far this term before his exit.

In an interview with Sunderland’s club website, Danso explained his decision to leave Tottenham on deadline day.

“I’m really happy to be here and I can’t wait to get started,” Danso said.

“Sunderland is a big club with huge ambition, and I’m excited to be part of what we’re building this season.

“I know Florent [Ghisolfi] well from our time together at Lens, so that was an important factor in my decision.

“I’m looking forward to working with him again, meeting my new team-mates and experiencing the atmosphere at the Stadium of Light.”

The deal for Danso could now lead to Spurs completing the signing of Adarabioyo from Chelsea, who would arrive on a permanent basis.

As previously reported by football.london, Spurs are closing in on a deal to sign the centre-back for a fee believed to be worth around £7million, plus add-ons.

Mykhailo Mudryk is also expected to arrive from Chelsea on deadline day, this time on a loan deal which includes the option for the transfer to be made permanent next summer for £75million.

Should Adarabioyo and Mudryk be confirmed before the 11pm deadline, Roberto De Zerbi would have added 10 new signings to his squad.

Earlier in the summer, Andy Robertson, Mateus Fernandes, Sandro Tonali, Jan Paul van Hecke, Martin Dubravka, Marcos Senesi, Omar Marmoush and Savio all completed moves to Tottenham for the current Premier League campaign.

Full confirmed list of 54 Tottenham ins and outs for summer transfer window with £469m bill

Submitted by daniel on

Tottenham have completed their summer transfer window with 10 new first team signings for Roberto De Zerbi and a flood of departures amid a huge rebuild at the club.

In all Spurs committed £394million in the transfer window with the option to add another £75million to that next summer with on-loan Ukrainian winger Mykhailo Mudryk, while they could recoup a potential £264million from outgoing deals this summer.

The transfer window closed at 11pm on Tuesday night and it ended a summer in which the north London outfit smashed their transfer record twice and joined the club of just five Premier League sides that have bought a £100million player when they completed the deal for Sandro Tonali with Newcastle United.

They also sealed the fourth highest sale in their history as the north London outfit's sporting director Johan Lange and CEO Vinai Venkatesham were busy with the highs and lows of the transfer window, with help from new director of football operations Rafi Moersen.

Tottenham midfielder posts emotional message after completing deadline day transfer - Football London

The Tottenham Hotspur midfielder has made a transfer deadline day move to Italy to join one of his former team-mates

Pape Matar Sarr has posted a heartfelt message to Tottenham Hotspur after sealing his move to Juventus on transfer deadline day.

The 23-year-old has fallen down the pecking order at Spurs after the £185million swoop for Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes from Newcastle and West Ham respectively. Roberto De Zerbi told football.london that the Senegal international had asked to leave the club.

Sarr had interest from clubs in France and Turkey but ultimately made the move to link-up with Guglielmo Vicario at Juventus. The midfielder sealed a loan move that will turn into a permanent transfer if he meets performance related conditions. The loan itself will cost Juventus £2.4million and then the permanent transfer would cost them a further £23.5million.

Spurs signed Sarr from Metz five years ago before loaning him back to the French club for a season. He played 141 games for the club, with 11 goals and 11 assists and one of his best performances came in the Europa League final victory against Manchester United last year.

On Tuesday he wrote on Instagram: "Thank you, Tottenham, for all the wonderful years we've spent together. A special thank you to the fans for their incredible support and love. See you again very soon."
