Tottenham are not interested in a move for reported Aston Villa target Weston McKennie, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The 22-year-old is reportedly up for sale, and Romano provided some more details on the USA international on Twitter.
Romano admitted that Spurs and Juventus are not in talks over a transfer, ruling out a possible swap move involving Moussa Sissoko.
He then claimed that the Italian giants would only part ways with the central midfielder if they receive an ‘important bid’ of more than €25/30m.
