Guys it's time to put 2+2 together...

Paul O'Keefe confirms that we're going to sell Kane soon:



Fabrizio Romano reveals that we've bid one player plus money for Porro:



It's happening.

It might happen, the fucking about bidding under what the selling club is stuck firm on is very typical Spurs though. Feels like we're waiting to get outbid by a Chelsea so Levy can hold his hands up and say "we tried" when we end up with Walker-Peters or no one.
 
We often hear about the need to get players young with a potential resale value.

How many foreign players since 1990 have we sold for more than we paid? I might be wrong but I can only think of 4/5.
 
Kane plus cash for Porro I meant

On that basis I say keep him and see if anyone takes him for free.... If not, he stays.
If he isn’t prepared to sign a new contract this Summer, we simply have to sell him. It’s one of the few occasions where you really would want the club to look at the pure economics.

We’d get £80 million, plus move his £14 million a year off the books. That’s the same as a run pretty far into the CL.

We’d just be delaying the inevitable.
