Rio Ferdinand has revealed which two Tottenham Hotspur players he wants to see at Manchester United.
It was previously reported by TEAMtalk that there could be a mass exodus from Spurs this summer if the Lilywhites go down.
The report revealed Tottenham Hotspur would ‘become the place to go for major clubs’ to add to their squad in the summer should they be relegated.
Additionally, it has been suggested that Spurs could be forced to offload their highest earners in the event of relegation, as the club would need to cut down their wage bill considerably.
Rio Ferdinand admits he would take Tottenham duo at Man United
According to Opta’s Supercomputer, Tottenham are now the favourites to go down, following the latest weekend of results, which has seen the Lilywhites fall two points adrift of West Ham in 17th place.
Ferdinand was initially hesitant to name any Spurs players he wants to see at Old Trafford, before naming the defensive duo of Micky van de Ven and Djed Spence as players his former club could do with.
When asked which Spurs players he would like the Red Devils to sign, the pundit said on his channel, Rio Ferdinand Presents: “Not right now, no. Can’t think of any that I’d take, especially the way they’re playing now. Van de Ven, maybe. Van de Ven and Djed Spence, actually. Djed Spence.”
