Tottenham Want Danny Welbeck On Loan

Tottenham are actively pursuing a loan deal for Manchester United forward Danny Welbeck but have ended their interest in Barcelona midfielder Alex Song, according to Sky sources.

Sky Sports reported earlier on Thursday that Spurs were discussing potential loans for Cameroon international Song, 26, and England's Welbeck, 23, after both players were told they were no longer wanted at their respective clubs.

While they do not want Song, Tottenham have now offered to take Welbeck on loan but would not be interested in signing him on a permanent deal this summer.

Welbeck is also wanted by Newcastle, Sunderland and Hull City but is believed to be keen on a move to White Hart Lane.

And Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino watched the 26-capped striker feature in United’s humiliating Capital One Cup defeat to MK Dons on Tuesday night.
