Tottenham Hotspur will not move on the price they want for one of their stars who was out on loan last season, something which means an interested club are set to withdraw from the race.
Spurs finished in fifth place in the Premier League last season, missing out on reaching the Champions League, but qualifying for the Europa League.
Boss Ange Postecoglou is looking for his men to go one better next term, though in addition to bringing in fresh faces, Spurs also want to offload out-of-favour stars.
