Kicker broke the Son news before everyone so could have some truth in it. Smart signing, not only one of the best young players on the planet but he’s the Son equivalent of the USA.
 
Super Jacky Grealish supposedly edging nearer and nearer, club now set to enter talks with Villa.
 
You reckon he's going straight into the first XI?
He'd likely be first-choice on the right, especially with Son at the Asian games, but he;s versatile enough to play across the attacking band to further increase his chances of starting regularly.

For clarification, here's a breakdown of where Dortmund deployed him for the past couple of seasons
Right wing: 59
Left wing: 13
Attacking midfielder: 10
Centre forward: 1
Right back: 1

At Gatwick at the moment and there's a guy in one of the restaurants who is either:
Daniel Levy
A Clone of Daniel Levy
Daniel Levys identical twin.

I'm wearing a Spurs shirt so I dont think it would be that rude to ask him "Is that you Daniel?".

Daniel Levy doesnt do Business Class does he? Even when he's on business.

I need to finish my beer and get back there before he buggers off.

He wouldn't use Gatwick surely <laugh>

If he’s flying to Dortmund, you know ****’s about to get real!

Google translation: The only offer so far comes from Tottenham and goes back several weeks. Offer of €45m considered insufficient. Discussions with other clubs (Manchester United, Manchester City, Juventus, PSG). If Ndombele does not leave this summer, it will extend with revaluation

Tutto Mercato Web are reporting we've had contact with Milan about a move for Ricardo Rodriguez...which would likely cost more than if we made contact with Wolfsburg last summer, considering he had a release clause of £18.5m at the time.

No fights to Dortmund, Stuttgart or Berlin, any of those close? My German Geography is not good.

Edit
Hes reading the Sun, it cant be him, Levy wouldnt read the Sun. Looks like him though.

Kicker are reporting that we've made a €50M bid

Sirens at the ready?

It's got a Spurs feel to it. For some time, there have been suggestions that there's a buy-out clause in the kid's contract, at a level that we could afford - $50m or Eur 50m? Plus, I bet Nike would like to have the best US player [and one who has a Nike boot deal] advertising their kit for his club and seen a lot more regularly on US TV. Now, we're entering into the realm of clubs where stuff like this starts to really count for us, not against us, as previously.

He's a young lad who'll want to sign for a team that will give him game time. That takes Utd. out of the mix. Citeh don't really need any more fast wide players, do they? Chelsea are up **** creek and Arsenal couldn't afford him.

Liverpool could be interested but should be more interested in spending their money in sorting out a goalkeeper who doesn't wear a revolving bow tie and take size 25 shoes and Dortmund may not want to encourage Klopp to start buying their players. Bayern might be interested but wouldn't Dortmund want to sell to someone else before Munich take him for nothing in a couple of years time?

Barcelona still have to settle in his former team mate, Dembele and he's a bit young for them and Real, so playing time could well be an issue. Davinson Sanchez turned down Barcelona and Juan Foyth did the same to PSG. Ditto Kovacic at Real. Good young players want to play. Juve would be possible but it's another new language and different culture and they have Douglas Costa and Cuadrado. I'm sure they'd be interested in a top young talent becoming available, though.

So, let's hope Daniel does read The Sun and a meeting's set for Munich and we can get the siren out.......

Area Napoli are reporting that we've been offered Dries Mertens, going so far as to claim a £44.4m fee and wages of £67k p/w have been proposed to us by his representatives.

This doesn't sound like an example of our name being used to up the ante from a third party, third parties such as Roma or Chelsea who both just so happen to be linked with him...

A £44.4m fee? His release fee is a little over half of that, apparently.
