Report: Tottenham could greenlight attacking midfielder’s move as host of English clubs circle
According to GiveMeSport, Tottenham Hotspur are open to loaning out Jamie Donley this summer, with a whole host of EFL clubs interested in a temporary deal for the attacking midfielder.
Jamie Donley had an impressive 2023/24 season
Donley had an outstanding campaign for Tottenham’s Under-21s last season, playing a crucial role in their path to Premier League 2 success.
Ange Postecoglou evidently rates the Spurs academy graduate very highly, with the Australian handing him three Premier League appearances in 2023-24 (Transfermarkt).
GiveMeSport have now claimed that the 19-year-old could be allowed to leave the club on a temporary basis ahead of the new season in order to get competitive minutes under his belt.
The report explains that several EFL clubs have expressed an interest in taking the teenager on board, with Tottenham ‘tempted’ to allow the youngster to test himself at that level.
However, it is revealed that the Lilywhites are cautious about the decision and want to ensure that Donley gets regular game time if he is to make a loan move.
Oxford United are keen on Donley loan deal
The latest club to express interest are Oxford United, who have secured promotion to the Championship via the Playoffs and will be playing in English football’s second tier for the first time in 25 years.
The publication adds that Tottenham are ‘open-minded’ about Donley’s future and are ‘waiting to be convinced’ where he has the best chance of developing next season.

I would not be surprised if Postecoglou decided to keep Donley, Will Lankshear and other youngsters at the club for the first half of the campaign and give them some game time in the Europa League, before exploring loan options for them in January.
