Tottenham midfielder Eric Lamela is not going to join Southampton this month despite Spurs signing Lucas Maura from PSG for £25 million earlier today.

There had been stories linking Lamela with a potential move to the South Coast club but it now appears it’s going to be a very quiet evening in terms of transfers at St Mary’s.
The Argentine’s minutes could be severely limited following the arrival from PSG but there is nothing to suggest that he will be going out on loan anywhere as he has been named as a substitute for Spurs as they host Manchester United this evening.
Lemela has just recently returned from a long term injury which saw him miss over a year of football and he hasn’t really got back to the same level as he was at before the injury which has forced Spurs to dip into the market.
