Conor Coady has suggested that many Tottenham Hotspur players will not be best pleased following an announcement which the club has made in the last few days.
Of course, the last few weeks of this Premier League season are on everyone’s mind right now.The team led by Ange Postecoglou is still a strong contender to finish in the top four and advance back to the Champions League the following year.
