SPURS CHIEFS IN PAY WAR WITH THEIR SENIOR STARS

- BY DARREN LEWIS

TOTTENHAM chairman Daniel Levy is battling a players’ pay crisis.

The defiant Spurs supremo will refuse to ditch his hard-line approach to wage control.

Danny Rose has criticised the club’s lack of ambition.

Despite interest in the leftback from Manchester United and Chelsea, Spurs will refuse to sell their £65,000-a-week

England internatio­nal. A number of Rose’s teammates agree with him that they are undervalue­d.

Although most of their key players have signed new contracts, none is paid more than Harry Kane and France captain Hugo Lloris, but their basic wages are less than £100,000 a week.

Midfielder Eric Dier is known to be frustrated at being denied a move to Old Trafford. Kyle Walker left to go to Manchester City.

And Spurs have yet to tie down defender Toby Alderweire­ld, who – on £50,000 a week – is now seeking parity with Kane.
