Considering that a fee to make his loan permanent was included in his loan, this means we're either trying to Levy them when it'd clearly be counter-productive (at least until July 1st...) or Espanyol are playing silly buggers. or AS is telling porkies. I wonder who the source is for this story?
After his one year loan, he's now got 12 months left on his contract. This has Levy's dabs all over it.
Lopez Saga Update Lopez himselfhas said that talks between Spurs and Espanyol are still ongoing in an interview on Spanish radio.
I am right in thinking that this guy is the one and same as our existing 3rd choice goalkeeper arent I ?
Yup ...unless either Comolli is back at the club, at which point it's safe to worry that we're signing Lisandro Lopez to understudy Lloris.
Wasn't Velasquez the one we snapped up from Brentford only like a year or so ago? Bit surprising to see him go so soon.
Some good fun stuff building up now. 1. We're going to pay £30m for Mamadou Sakho. Err..........no, we're really not. We've never paid £30m for anyone. When we do, if won't be a centre half with mental issues who can't pass the ball. 2. Apparently, we've cottoned on to the fact that transfer prices have gone up generally And Citeh have a lot of money to waste and won't be giving Kyle Walker away for less than John Stones. 3. Merse thinks (after a fashion) that United could buy Harry Kane for £90m. Oh Merse! Bless you, they could have Sissoko for that.......maybe. 4. Nobody has the slightest clue about our intended transfer business right now. Maybe including us?
Lopez appears to still be on the cards, although either we or Espanyol are playing silly buggers over the fee Another centre back appears to be on the agenda too, considering we're being liked with Harry Maguire, Mattias Ginter, Ben Gibson and Joel Veltman at the moment - which also points to us continuing to use three at the back next season
Was initially surprised when I saw his name as he looked pretty decent in that one outing. However, then considered the excellent business plan: 1. Young reserve team player with no 1st team experience = £2-5m max 2. Young first team squad player with PL experience = £5-10m I wouldn't mind quessing that the decision around Lesniak was made a few weeks ago!
Southampton recken that they will not sell Van Dijk for less than 70M. That makes Walker worth 140M plus Levyage 140 +30 =170M; plus CITEH tax, which is 30M, well it was on Stones anyway. That makes Walker worth around the 200M mark. You could buy a decent gold mining company for that. Perhaps that's what Levy is up to, solid gold toilet roll holders in the hospitality areas of the new WHL, something nice to wipe your Arsenal with.
While I try and recover from a horrific bout of acid reflux, let us all gather round this gif of Joel Veltman's inch-perfect last-ditch tackle to deny Chelsea Arnhem's Lucas Piazon please log in to view this image Shades of the great Ledders right there. Now if you'll excuse me, I'll get back to belching the atmosphere of Venus...
