Report: Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy badly wanted Newcastle United to agree to an obligation to buy Danny Rose in January

According to The Athletic’s Chris Waugh, Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy badly wanted Newcastle United to agree to an obligation to buy Danny Rose at the end of the season when his loan deal was being discussed in January, but that didn’t happen despite his best efforts.

The 29-year-old doesn’t have a future at the North London club as it stands despite having one more year left on his current deal, and he isn’t guaranteed one at St. James’ Park beyond the end of the season either.

Newcastle want to extend Rose’s stay beyond the initial agreed date – June 30 – with their campaign now set to run until August, and both clubs have been in talks.
