Dan KP says Winks is closing on a deal to Leicester. Tears in my eyes. He also says talks are continuing with Leverkusen for Tapsoba.
I deserve this moment of joy. 6+ years I’ve longed for this day. Local Leicester reports say it’s an £8m deal with £4m add-ons if they get promoted. Potentially £12m for Winks when I would’ve taken him to Leicester and paid them to take him. Glorious, truly glorious.
If Maddison is coming to Spurs I assume Levy will be making the "add-ons" for both players "zero sum" .
surprised maddison is going to you guys for 40m without anyone else coming in. Think he's a cracking player. Only black mark is his fitness, seems to pick up a lot of niggling injuries in the past 2 years
Which PL clubs who finished above Spurs last season, would want him ?? And of those, who do you think he would consider to be a better long term prospect ??
I'm very happy with the deal. When you look at how much Arsenal are paying for Havertz or United for Mount, he is definitely the better value for money.
United could do with him. Eriksen is quite key for them and isn't getting younger. Arsenal could always do with him. They can't have odengaard playing ever game this season as well as putting him in for Martinelli sometimes City also like to stockpile players, he would add to their squad since i believe silva is going to leave, gundogan has gone and KDB has been picking up injuries of late. Newcastle i'm very surprised haven't gone for him (or maybe he prefers spurs). He's a talented player for sure
You think he’s got it bad? I still have a Winks reference in my sig So long, my prince, what could have been.
I suspect that his personal choice will be based on weighing regular playing time against possibly higher wages + "flash in the pan" possibilities (bar Citeh) for all of the above.] . However, if the Poool come in for him, I would be neither surprised nor angry if he went there.
Ehhhh, even when I saw it at the cinema (the one screening they had all week, as they were spamming James Bond all f'n week) I thought it would've worked so much better as a TV series
Winks is out. Wow. It’s happening. Now bring in Kilman, Tapsoba and Van de Ven, shift Lenglet, Dier, and Sanchez and we may have a flippin’ window on our hands. Amrabat for the icing on the cake.
