I'd much rather this kid. £25m release clause apparently and isn't just a headbanging lump like the ones I've seen discussed over the last page or two:
Almost zero pro football tho. And benfica hype machine is dangerous

The correct answer is Raul Jimenez
Signed permanently for Wolves earlier this week.
Casemiro would be fantastic.Madrid want to sell Kroos, Isco, Rodriguez, Casemiro and Bale this summer according to the Daily Fail
I guess we can do better than their rejects
I'm really glad people have come away from the Andre Gomes faff

Tottenham looking to snatch £30m-rated Andre Gomes from under the noses of Everton
Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy is willing to sanction a £30 million summer move to try to snatch midfielder Andre Gomes from under the noses of Everton.www.telegraph.co.uk
Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy is willing to sanction a £30 million summer move to try to snatch midfielder Andre Gomes from under the noses of Everton.
Gomes has impressed during his season-long loan spell at Everton and the Toffees are desperate to sign him on a permanent deal from Barcelona.
But they are set to face stiff competition from Spurs, as well as other clubs, who believe the 25 year-old could prove to be a bargain.
Tottenham considered signing Gomes on loan in January 2018 and have monitored his progress ever since.
Chief scout Steve Hitchen was at Anfield to watch Gomes in the Merseyside derby between Liverpool and Everton in December and manager Mauricio Pochettino is an admirer of the player
Pochettino has made it clear that Tottenham need to spend this summer, as he plots how to refresh his squad.
Following the departure of Mousa Dembele and with doubts over the future of Christian Eriksen, one of Pochettino’s main priorities will be to strengthen his midfield
Gomes is ready to wait until the end of the season before considering his options, but does not expect to return to Barcelona.
Asked about his future, Gomes said: “To be honest, I try not to think about that. One thing football has given to me is teach me how to manage situations and how to enjoy it day by day
“Every day is a new challenge and every weekend in the Premier League is a new challenge. So I try to think only in the present.
“If I think further ahead than that then I will probably lose my mind in some way. So I am trying to finish the season in the best way possible, give my best in every training session and in every game. We will see in the end.”
Tottenham also retain an interest in Ryan Sessegnon, who is expected to leave Fulham following their relegation, and have previously considered a bid for striker Aleksandar Mitrovic. Norwich right-back Max Aarons and Swansea City’s Daniel James are also on their radar
Despite needing to pay for the club’s new stadium, Levy will make money available to Pochettino this summer that could be boosted substantially by player sales.
Other than Eriksen, there are doubts over the future of Toby Alderweireld, while the likes of Kieran Trippier and Jan Vertonghen could attract tempting bids from elsewhere
Just as a thought experiment, I made a game
Don't like it, just ignore it
(To keep it simple: selling players doesn't provide you with extra credit)

He's really not.Maybe so but over the last few years he been quite accurate regarding transfers in and out of Spurs. Plus out of all the journalists his articles about Spurs tend to be the most balanced. I think he has a good source at the club.
I was listening him couple of times on Sky Sunday show and he was defending Poch and Spurs, just saying. Don't know about his writing though.Stopped reading at ''Matt Law''. The dude that was desperate to sell Poch to United.
A lot of them are suddenly making up for spending the past 4 months being wrong about Poch to United by now being our guardians.I was listening him couple of times on Sky Sunday show and he was defending Poch and Spurs, just saying. Don't know about his writing though.
Bad move for him, imv but fair play
Will be interesting to see if there’s any change to our general transfer model.
Take someone like Rakitic. Regardless of whether he is the right fit, will Levy stump up for experience that won’t necessarily have significant sell on value.
