Report: Luton Town are eyeing a January move for 24-year-old Spurs player - Spurs Web - Tottenham Hotspur Football News
The Daily Mail have revealed that Luton Town are considering a move for Tottenham defender Japhet Tanganga. There was plenty of optimism about Tanganga when he first broke into the Tottenham first team nearly four years ago but since then, the centre-back has not been able to do justice to his...

Japh needs to get a new agent.
He is at least a champ quality player.
OK he has had a few injuries but still..
At the age of 24 he needs to be playing week in week out now for the sake of his career, whatever the level. A couple more seasons like this and he'd be 26 with only a handful of professional appearances to his name.
Realistically even if he went to League One for the rest of this season, he should be a standout performer and then be in line for Championship level, and then again, if he has any right to be thought of as a Prem footballer, he should stand out at that level. Then season after next he could be looking at being a regular Prem starter.
At his current rate his career is going nowhere, better to start lower and build his way up rather than trying and failing to get football at the top level just because he started a few games for us and looked ok a few years ago now.
Think that's where he's off to.
Finally I am putting you on ignore, you miserable wretch.
Pretty sure they were linked in the summer........ I guess the promise of game-time at Ausberg was greater.
Have Luton got a settled CB combo? If so it'll only be more bench-riding.........
He's going to be 25 next month. I think the Championship is the next destination to figure out his level, that's by no means something to turn your nose up at. Find him a club in the Championship, see how he gets on and maybe come the summer he'll be able to have his long term future sorted out.
As with all Spurs academy players, I wish him the best.

This guys career can be measured in minutes, not games.
Thanks Jose, for plucking him out of the academy and giving him a 4? 5? year contract off the back or a half decent debut.
Let's he totally serious here, he's either been injured or shit ever since that Liverpool game. There are people who aren't genetically able to cope with elite sport. They get injured constantly. He is one of them. We should be figuring these things out when they're in the academy. If they're missing a lot of games there, they have no chance in the mens game.

Who are both better than Tanganga.
Tanganga isn't even better than someone like Tuanzebe and he can barely get a kick in the Championship.
I sort of feel for Tanganga. He was never really of the required level. Even at youth level, he was never really highly rated or touted as this next big centre back like say Caulker was (who's a much better player than Japhet is) - I don't even think Tanganga was any better than TJ Eyoma who was in the same youth team and he's forged himself a decent League One career.
Japh is nowhere near their level, not even close. Japh has made 27 league appearances in his entire career and he’s 25 years old.
I think if he had stayed fit he could have had a good career at lower PL level but he hasn’t been fit for most of the last four years. No player can overcome that, he hasn’t been able to develop at all because he hasn’t been fit to play. He still looks like a raw academy player as his injuries have totally stymied his development.
