Harry Winks has confirmed that he will not be signing for Sampdoria on a permanent basis by taking to social media to thank the Italian club and wish them well ahead of his return to Tottenham.
It was a season to forget for Sampdoria who have been relegated to Serie B after finishing rock bottom of the table with just 19 points from 38 games.

Winks himself endured a frustrating start to the campaign as he did not kick a ball for the first half of the season due to ankle issues.
However, not only has the midfielder managed to stay injury free since January but he has also got consistent game time under his belt and has been one of the Italian side’s most consistent performers.
No Sampdoria move for Harry Winks
The England international will perhaps be hoping that his performances in Genoa over the last few months are enough to attract plenty of suitors this summer but the one thing that seems clear is that Sampdoria will not be exercising the £20m option to buy the 27-year-old permanently.
After playing his final game for the club against Napoli on Sunday, Winks took to Instagram to post the following message:
Spurs Web Opinion
The chances of Winks resurrecting his Spurs career do seem low and conventional wisdom would suggest that he would be one of the players who are shipped out as part of the club’s mass clear-out this summer.
However, there is no doubt that the England international has the technical quality and engine to play in Postecoglou’s system.
If the Australian can give him the freedom to make mistakes in possession and be brave (which Mourinho and Conte clearly did not), there is a chance that his best can be unlocked.
