With Mings signing for Villa for £26m, I expect: £55m for Wanyama, £55m for Lamela, £70m for Trippier and £45m for Aurier. Not a damn penny less. World's gone ****ing mad when players as gash as Mings is going for that sort of money.
ITK Watch Tottenham Hotspur Blog News (THBN) has three claims i.) A deal for Lo Celso is "imminent" with him claiming a fee of €68m + add-ons...while he slags off anyone who claimed the club has an interest in Fernandes and/or Zaniolo ii.) Dani Ceballos will not be flying out with the rest of Los Ladrones' squad on Tuesday for their pre-season tour of Trumpland...before he crowbars in talk about Mariano Diaz as if we're doing a 2-for-1 loan deal, which is real 2 + 2 = Czechoslovakia stuff iii.) Danny Rose is negotiating a new contract, which as I'm sure a few of you may notice is the exact opposite of what the Wail are claiming Somehow he doesn't have a single source or quote to back up any of this...
Doesn't Foyth qualify to be in the U-21 B list this season? He didn't last year because he hadn't played for us for two years but he has now and was U-21 on 1 Jan 2019. If so that will free up a place in the squad. We've got more of a problem with Association Trained players than Club trained ones though....Surely only Dele qualifies if Trippier leaves. Any of the Club Trained players would qualify so that means they are essentially a free option in the squad.
TIELEMANS !!! However, it looks though Leicester are going to have to pay the 40m that Monaco want (my angst was that Monaco would drop the price to a level that Spurs could have easily endured in order to get him as a decent squad player) .
Who wants to make something out of the fact that Trippier doesn't get a slow-mo shot and Eriksen is almost edited out of this?
It was clearly a joke I was just on the wum but seriously... There's no way you make a profit on lamela, even in this market. He's injured more than kane ffs
Ceballos Watch AS report that a loan deal is "close" Is there anything worse in a transfer story than being "close"? It's like how the Donner Party were "close" to their destination Anyway, given the presumption among various sources state it's a loan deal with an option to make it permanent, here's the obvious question: the quoted figure is £44m, but is it worth paying more than that if that removed the usual buyback bullshittery that Los Ladrones are so keen on?
No way Levy would allow a buyback clause. Madrid can set a transfer fee X for if Ceballos is meh while on loan. If when signed he transforms into the second coming, then they can negotiate beforehand for this possibility by doing what Levy does and requesting "performance" clauses that would raise X to a fee Y.
Andersen Watch Joke's on them: we'll be signing him for £60m next summer Exodus Watch Leggo report that Roma are considering a bid for Moussa Sissoko at the urging of a controversial member of club president James Palotta's inner circle, whose official role is described as a consultant but it was strongly suggested by Francesco Totti that his role within the club goes far deeper than that The name of this consultant? Franco Baldini.
If it's not Ben Davies or some random youth player, then I'll be quite surprised. It's not you is it, Roo?
