Aaron Lennon has been this years transfer deadline day most talked about player. He’s been linked to half of the Premier League! But it seems he has finally found a new club in Everton, who he will join on loan – and Spurs fans seem pretty gutted about it!
The 27 year old winger has been at Tottenham for 10 years but his time looks to have come to an end as he has struggled for game time recently at White Hart Lane. Lennon has only made three Premier League starts under Pochettino as the Argentine grew frustrated with his inconsistent form.
Fans of Tottenham were generally gutted to see Lennon leave. However, interestingly, the fans of the clubs linked to Lennon didn’t seem too keen on his arrival. Many Spurs fans suggested it would be sad to see a player that has been at the club so long, leave. Interestingly, many are suggesting he is a better option than Townsend, and even Lamela. Here’s how the fans are reacting on Twitter:
Quite sad that Lennon is leaving. Even though he could be endlessly frustrating, there were some real moments of magic. #thfc #coys

I will be genuinely gutted if Lennon does go as he's been one of our own for the last decade. I wish him nothing but success #Yiddo #THFC

Sad to see Lennon go. May be loan but option to buy worries me as I still think he can do a job for us. Wish him all the best at Everton tho

Will be gutted if Lennon leaves Spurs tonight. Still think he’s better than Townsend or Lamela. And he’s only 27. #COYS

Little bit underwhelmed by Lennon. Always seemed to have little end product. However pace, experience and eager to do well #EFC

Gutted that Lennon is not wanted, he has been here 10 years, put in a good shift and deserves a testimonial!

Sad Lennon is leaving #Spurs on loan for Everton. He still has more to offer. Ironic that he was instrumental in defeat of Everton #thfc
