Tottenham Hotspur will allow Harvey White to depart on loan before the transfer deadline, according to Football Insider.
The Lowdown: White's career so far
The 21-year-old has made just one appearance for Spurs in the Premier League this season, appearing off the bench for four minutes, and he is at the stage where he should be starting to push for a place in the first team.
The youngster previously played for Portsmouth on loan during the 2020/21 season, but that is his only prolonged taste of senior football, and Spurs are now eager for him to have another spell somewhere else where he would get regular game-time.
The Latest: White allowed to leave
According to Football Insider, Spurs have told the midfielder that he is free to complete a loan move before Tuesday's transfer deadline, amid interest from Championship and League One clubs.
Blackpool had made an enquiry about the starlet but they are now believed to be out the race as they are prioritising a defensive signing, so it is unclear where he may end up.

The Verdict: Right call
If the youngster is ever going to stake a claim for a starting berth at Spurs, Antonio Conte needs to ensure that White has experience in men's football rather than just youth games, and the aim should be to find him a move as soon as possible.
Hailed as a 'brilliant player in the making' by journalist Ben Haines, the left-footed midfielder has been showing some promising signs in Premier League 2, with five goals and six assists in 18 outings at that level last season.
However, he is unlikely to get any game-time in the Tottenham first team at present, considering that Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg has been fantastic this season in boasting the squad's second-highest Sofascore performance rating, and a loan departure is the right move for White at this stage.
