MOUSA DEMBELE is heading out of Tottenham next year for nothing.
The Belgian midfielder is a free agent next summer and will not be holding talks with Spurs to extend his stay in North London beyond this season.
Dembele, 31, was a summer target for Inter Milan, but the Serie A giants baulked at the Premier League side’s £26million valuation.
On top of the transfer fee, Inter failed to agree personal terms with the player and his representatives.
SunSport has been told Dembele turned down a number of offers from other European clubs after the World Cup.
A host of Chinese Super League clubs, including Beijing Sinobo Guoanare, are also chasing his signature.

Despite featuring in 87 games for club and country over the last two seasons, Dembele has struggled for fitness and is keen to move to a less physically demanding league to prolong his career.
A move to the sunnier climates of the Middle East is high on the agenda.
Dembele moved to White Hart Lane from Fulham in 2012 for £15m.
The playmaker hobbled off at half-time at Huddersfield Town last week with a knock and looks set for another spell on the sidelines.
