The reason they gave us, is that the flag is 'a political' flag and political flags are not permitted inside the stadium. The Cyprus flag is 100% NOT a political flag. We have been part of the furniture for years and many fans describe the flag as "iconic". We have had this flag up for 15+ years inside White Hart Lane and now the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and not had a single problem. This is not a football club. 'We have been part of the furniture for years and many fans describe the flag as "iconic". Now all of a sudden it's 'a political' flag and is no longer allowed inside. Another said: 'Used to love seeing this flag in the corner of the Paxton. Now all of a sudden it's "a political" flag and is no longer allowed inside.

Elite Tottenham target agrees summer switch, with early January ... (Teamtalk.com)

An Inter Milan superstar wanted by Tottenham and PSG has verbally to a summer switch, and a report claims an early arrival in January may yet occur.

In that scenario, PSG would likely only be willing to pay a fee if they feel they’re in danger of seeing their Skriniar move hijacked. [cut a frustrated figure](https://www.teamtalk.com/tottenham-hotspur/antonio-conte-throws-daniel-levy-under-the-bus-after-tottenham-do-something-thats-never-happened-in-his-career) in the aftermath of his side’s 4-2 capitulation against Man City on Thursday. The Slovakian colossus, 27, is out of contract in the summer and has been stalling on penning fresh terms. Instead, it now appears Skriniar will simply move to Paris as a free agent once his Inter contract expires in the summer. Given he’s in the final six months of his deal, he’s now free to negotiate a pre-contract agreement.

Tottenham news and transfers LIVE: Porro release clause, Trossard ... (Football.London)

Tottenham news: The latest updates with all the Spurs headlines and gossip after the x-x xxx against Manchester City.

Trossard could have been the answer to Antonio Conte's need for a new attacker this window with a flexible forward on their shortlist. Spurs are said to be in the race to land the 23-year-old in January, with West Ham and Borussia Dortmund also chasing a potential deal. Emerson Royal was presented with a spot in the Tottenham team against Man City after having to watch on from the bench recently. Zaniolo is said to be free to leave Roma in the transfer window after a difficult return action in the past few months, even receiving boos from fans in a clash with Bologna. He doesn’t care about possession of the ball, he sees that Spurs had two or three good chances, but the defence and goalkeeper weren’t good enough, so when he says we need to improve he means we need two or three defenders and a goalkeeper of Conte’s going to challenge and if Conte’s going to stay. Tottenham have attempted to sign the 6ft 3ins attacking midfielder during the past three windows but have a limited budget this time around. The former [Atletico Madrid](https://cms.sportsjoe.ie/football/atletico-madrid-players-shirts-fans-stadium-270717) goalkeeper earns a reported €400,000 a week on his current contract but is expected to sign a new deal on reduced terms. Sometimes you are in situations that are not so positive but we have to continue to work and believe in ourselves. "Yeah but you know we are really disappointed because many times, you have try to justify the goals that we are conceding," he said. Tottenham aren’t winning, and haven’t got the players to be in a position to yet. "This season, yesterday we played a good game and a game a team like Tottenham has to play, face-to-face and open. “When you look at the Arsenal goal, I can be in a good position but the deflection hit the ball on my chest and with the spin it goes over [the line].
