Tottenham Hotspur defender Ben Davies praised for Wales display v South Korea
Regarding Davies’ performance for Wales against South Korea, WalesOnline had nothing but praise.

Ben Davies struggling for playing time at Spurs
Davies, a very talented defender who joined Tottenham in 2014 after leaving Swansea City, has been a member of the club ever since.
Although the Wales international has performed admirably for Spurs over the years, head coach Ange Postecoglou of Tottenham does not now seem to have him in mind too much.
After all, this season, Davies has played for Tottenham once in the EFL Cup and twice as a substitute in the Premier League.
Even if the defender performed admirably for Wales, we do not believe that his status as a squad player at Tottenham will change.

After Davinson Sanchez and Tanguy Ndombele, he left.
With reports about Maksim Paskotsi, Tottenham Hotspur has decided to sell another player after Davinson Sanchez and Tanguy Ndombele left for Galatasaray.
Who has left Spurs this summer?
Over the past few months, Ange Postecoglou has successfully managed to significantly downsize his team.
The head coach of the Lilywhites granted the go-ahead for players like Dane Scarlett, Joe Rodon, Harry Winks, Alfie Devine, and Troy Parrott to leave either permanently or on loan during the summer transfer window.
The star striker Harry Kane’s multimillion-pound transfer to Bayern Munich may have been the hardest to accept because worries about Tottenham’s perceived firepower without the Englishman started to arise.
Even Nevertheless, the north Londoners have benefited from Kane’s absence as Postecoglou reorganizes the team to play his exhilarating, electrifying brand of “Ange-ball”
Prior to the international break, Spurs secured stunning victories in the Premier League over Man United, Bournemouth, and Burnley, scoring nine goals in the process and effectively ending the Kane era.
Additionally, Sanchez, a defender, left Tottenham for Galatasaray on a permanent basis, and Ndombele was loaned to the same team by chairman Daniel Levy of Tottenham.
Journalist Dean Jones claimed that the latter player’s circumstance was unique and that Ndombele had no choice but to go.
Jones added, “The Ndombele situation has been very peculiar.”
He ought to be one of the greatest midfielders in the Premier League, but he has never been able to seize the chances. Finally, I’m informed that Tottenham were eager to get rid of him.
He was given a second chance by Ange Postecoglou this summer to establish himself and demonstrate that he might have a future at the club, but he failed to impress, and they just didn’t have place for passengers, so he was forced to move on.
As long as the Turkish window is open, rumors continue to surround players like Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, who was unable to finalize a transfer before September 1, and goalie Hugo Lloris.
The age of Postecoglou has exploded into existence, and several team members, like center-back Eric Dier, have very unsure futures under the Australian.
What will be intriguing to watch is which veteran players leave after Sanchez and Ndombele.
Makisim Paskotsi, 20, has reportedly left Spurs to join the Swiss team Grasshoppers. This is according to Spurs themselves.
Despite some early plaudits for his enormous potential, the Estonian international has signed with them on a permanent basis and is now permanently departing the club.
Paskotsi did in fact make an appearance for the first team, making his debut in the first leg of their 2021 UEFA Europa Conference League play-off match against Pacos de Ferreira.
What’s been said about Maksim Paskotsi?
Despite commentator John Wenham earlier praising the defender’s potential, he simply wasn’t given enough opportunities at Spurs.
Wenham said in 2021, “He came in and immediately made an impression with the Under 18s.
“As a center back, he scored five goals in a very short period of time, three of them were volleys.We are discussing an extremely technical player who, last season, was called up to the Estonian national team because of a COVID epidemic.
Interestingly, he has maintained his position in that lineup and has six caps at the age of 18.
“Estonia may not be well-liked, but they have achieved some respectable results. They won over Finland and Belarus and left Wales with a really commendable draw.
