AC Milan never contemplated Suso sale despite Tottenham links, reveals Montella

AC Milan boss Vincenzo Montella has insisted that Suso is not for sale despite being linked with a move to Tottenham this summer.

Following the flurry of high profile talents which AC Milan have brought in this season, Suso has managed to prove he still has something to offer the team this season, following his 70th-minute free-kick to win the game for the Black and Reds on the night.

It had been reported earlier in the summer that Spurs were considering a €22m move for the 23-year-old Spaniard. The club's only outfield signing this summer remains Davinson Sanchez from Ajax for a reported £36m.

Suso scored the winning goal at the weekend to keep Milan's 100% win record this season intact and following an impressive display, Montella was quick to assert that the Spaniard would not be leaving this summer.

"Suso is part of the Milan project, he is very well thought of by the coaching staff," Montella said as reported by Football Italia.

"We never thought of putting him up for sale. He is a decisive player."
