Tottenham's transfer plans are in turmoil - because Gylfi Sigurdsson and Michael Dawson will not leave.

Supremo Daniel Levy wanted to sell the pair for £15million to land new signings for new boss Mauricio Pochettino.

Icelandic midfielder Sigurdsson is available for £10 million and teed up to go back to Swansea where he starred on loan two years ago.

However Sigurdsson has told Tottenham he does not want to move and is keen to impress Pochettino - starting with the pre-season tour to America.

Sigurdsson's departure would have seen Ben Davies and Michel Vorm heading for White Hart Lane in part exchange.

Levy also faces a setback in the plan to let centre half Dawson go. He has been cleared to speak to Hull City but Dawson is refusing to leave in a £5million deal unless he gets a four-year contract with the Tigers.

Hull have left it with Dawson to get a pay-off from Spurs, where he still has two years left on his contract but neither side are budging.

Dawson's decision to dig in his heels has put a Tottenham bid for Nottingham Forest's Jamaal Lascelles on hold.
