As I said previously. There is definitely something going on behind the scenes . We have gone from having to sell to buy ...now we have splashed out on a full back and Bale. Now a bid goes in for Danny Ings.
To get him it would have to be circa 50m as Soton don’t need to sel.
Levy reportedly in a behind closed door meeting yesterday.
Employing Dennis Birch to take over some parts of Levy’s job. Jonathan Turner now on the board, he is a specialist in mergers and acquisitions.
Joe selling some of his stake.?
Got to be Amazon involved or certainly USA interest.
Don't agree.
We had (and do still) need to sell to create spaces for players to be registered in the squad, and in turn that has generated some funds to buy players.
Moneywise, right at the start of this TW I suggested we would spend maybe a net £50m (about 40% of what we spent last summer) on the basis that we certainly made money last season up until March - but since then of course there has been almost no revenue generation from either football matches or the many non football revenue streams (non football events, exhibitions and conference business etc) whilst much of the cost base has remained intact, hence much less than last summer might be available.
So far we have spent probably that £50m on fees for the 5 players coming in so far (Hojbjerg, Doherty, Hart Bale and Reguilon with KWP going the other way) but doesn't surprise me that DL has found a bit more money for one to three extra players (most likely one or two ?).
And the money required for players doesn't require the sort of money which selling parts of Spurs might generate (eg selling 10% of Spurs valued at £1.5 bn would generate £150m......and I very much doubt we are spending £150m from now until end of TW !)
More than likely that we are spening more this summer, but next summer's transfer dealings wil be less than it might have been.
