Transfers Summer 2022 Transfer Thread.

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Evan Ndicka is making the rounds as a possible CB signing this summer.
22 years old, plays for Frankfurt in the Bundesliga since 2018, left footed. Ticks a lot of the boxes for us. Contract until 2023.

He's a really good player and a nice option on our list if we cannot get Gvardiol or Bastoni.

6'4 as well, need some much needed height in our back line
 
It was to get round the payment we were due to make to PSG if I recall.
I think it was to do with the sell on fee Betis had agreed when signing from PSG, it only applied to the sale transfer fee, but not any loan fees.

So we heavily weighted the initial loan fee, reducing the cut of the total deal that PSG would get, and so reducing our overall outgoing without impacting on the amount that Betis were getting.
 
Let's not overcomplicate this. He wants to stay at Villareal, they want to buy, we want him off the books and Villareal offers us a fair price.

No need to instigate a bidding war and possibly tanking the entire deal.
If other clubs are genuinely interested they will reach out. There's no need for us to start fishing when we seem to have a good deal more or less ready.
And we want Pau Torres....:levystare:
 
We didn't have it to spare before then. We were in the thick of a 1bn stadium project.

Bout time people final learned to deal with that inconvenient fact.



So blow the bulk of the kitty on one player and then go on a scavenger hunt for for the rest of the long list of players everyone's convinced themselves we need?

Torres... Lamptey or some other 50m flavour of the month RB.... Some flash LB... A CM... A striker...... A GK......Whoever else???

All from the bargain basement?

Consider the sale of TN & GLC enough to cover the price of Bcur & Kulu, you really think the rest of that can be done on 50m do you?

You're dreaming.
I don’t think we need all that. A stellar CM and RWB and we are good. If the former is Savic then go for it

I’m expecting naming rights and / or outside investment this summer so 150M net is conservative. With 2 or 3 new players, we could win the PL next year. That will drift Away as Kane and Son age if we dont gamble now. 22 years of frugal, value based decision making hasn’t worked. Trust Conte and Paratici and back them.
