Morgan Schneiderlin is ready to demand a transfer from Southampton.
The Daily Mail says Schneiderlin is ready to ask for a transfer to push through his move to Tottenham Hotspur.
Southampton on Tuesday refused to sell Schneiderlin and Jay Rodriguez to the north London club as they reacted to fans and staff growing increasingly alarmed at the continued sale of players.
Schneiderlin, who joined in 2008 from Strasbourg for £1.25million, is believed to be valued at £27m while Tottenham are understood to have offered £13m and Arsenal were poised with a similar bid.
