And that's prior to moving to the new stadium
 
Don’t have much time before the new season, I’d like to see us avoid the usual deadline day signing shenanigans and get things done early for a change.

But what the fuck am I thinking, this is Tottenham and this is Daniel Levy we’re talking about...!

This is the path that levy has always been keen on, purchase younger upcoming talent, then polish it up and sell on for big money then do it again whilst remaining competitive to a degree.

I agree that this was our first business model, but nowadays I do think the focus has changed a bit.

The "buy young with big potential" strategy in my opinion now is also an extra protection barrier against acquired transfers not working out/ players wanting out after a couple of years. If we buy them young, age won't become a factor that decreases their value if we 'need' to sell them afterwards.

You could see it as an attempt for some kind of insurance for their resale value if they don't work out.

In addition, young players have lower wage demands in general (I believe) so that fits in with our model of a 'modest' wage structure.

Bookmarked. Define "soon" for us Sammy. For me that would mean the next 2-3 seasons. And I am not one that has ever rated Maguire. I also understand 10x is hyperbole and wouldn't hold you to that. But if Tanganga is a starting CB in the PL in 2-3 seasons I would be surprised nevermind your statement.
 
With considerable hesitation, I add this ramble from dragon1 to the thread.

----------------------------
Main striker target is playing in prem not at a bottom 3 team or top 4 from last seasons table so that gives u a good clue he will cost around 50 mil will only happen if we shift Tanguy we have interest in Tanguy but not at the 42 mill DL wants...(1/2)
...the striker will only happen if Tanguy goes imo unless we sell others and as things stand no firm interest in our players apart from serge. my feeling is serge and Tanguy will go and the Korean lad , 1 of the 3 right backs Ive spoken about and the striker will come in. (2/2) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With the caveat that this is likely BS, the site that shall not be named thinks the main striker target is Danny Ings.

I disagree.

I think it's Raul Jimenez, given Wolves will not have European football this season.

I also note that RJ's agent is Jorge Mendes.

Ings and Jimenez are probably the only two that fit that description and price.

I'd argue there is probably value out there across Europe that'd see us spend half of that on someone that can play up top on his own, with Kane or out wide.
