Tottenham Hotspur are now looking to sell three first-team players this summer and two of them started on Thursday night.
The summer canāt come quickly enough for Tottenham now with three straight defeats indicating they have now ran out of steam.
It has been a big season for the Lilywhites who have overseen a lot of change since this time last year.
Over the last 12 months, Daniel Levy has brought in Ange Postecoglou as the manager, sold Harry Kane and seen various new players arrive.
And it has been a largely positive season as Spurs look set to qualify for Europa League football.
However, there has been some bumps in the road and the past few weeks have highlighted some issues in the squad leading up to the summer.
The upcoming transfer window will provide Postecoglou with another opportunity to fine tune his side and it seems he already has plans to offload a number of players.

Although Tottenham have done some fantastic business in the previous two transfer windows, there has still been some areas left to improve.
Players like Micky van de Ven have come in and offered an immediate upgrade to the starting XI at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
But the last three games which have seen Spurs lose on an aggregate scoreline of 9-2 have demonstrated thereās still work to be done.
The latest defeat came on Thursday night away to a depleted Chelsea side and two of those starting players for Spurs are now said to be up for sale.
According to The Telegraph, Tottenham are now looking to move on Richarlison, Emerson Royal and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg this summer.
The future of the Dane has been widely discussed ahead of the summer with reports suggesting heās already being offered about in Italy by his agent.
And The Spurs News have already provided some insight on Tottenhamās thoughts over the future of their Brazilian striker.
However, it seems Emerson has also not shown Postecoglou enough to make the Australian want to keep him this summer.
Who should Tottenham replace Emerson Royal with in the summer?
A new full-back is said to be one of the targets for Tottenham going into the summer.
The Spurs News understand the club are looking to sign a versatile full-back who is capable of playing on both sides of the defence.
And one player who is understood to be on the clubās radar is the former Spurs player Kyle Walker-Peters who is currently playing at Southampton.
Here is a summary of how Walker-Peters has compared against Pedro Porro this season.

Whether or not a move for the defender is realistic could well depend on whether the Saints are able to secure a return to the Premier League.
