Because Sporting are supposed to pay the fee - of £2,6m - and not Spurs. And they agreed on that....only for Sporting to change their minds overnight.
So this is not a Levy thingy.

We deserve better.
Tbh don’t really care.
Just chatting shit and have decided that a player I’ve watched a few times will definitely make the club less of a laughing stock and more likely to finally win something.
Don't bother mate
If he was in charge we'd be paying £170m more than we receive every year .
Just think about that for a second, that would be a debt of £3.4 BILLION in trying to SpEnD MoRe MoNeY
They're letting Cancelo out on loan to Bayern... so maybe there is some truth in this ...

I think it’s to do with the factoring fees.
Sporting want all of the money now so they are using a lendaer to factor all of the fees up front. The lenders who offer this service charge chunky fees and interest.
I think they are trying to get spurs to pay this.
This very well may be a last minute issue from Sporting. Maybe they changed the requirements last minute, and maybe it's some gray area that needs last minute sorting out.
The reality is though that we've had WEEKS to get this done. Weeks and we're screwing around at the very end of the window.
As far as I can tell, there's absolutely nothing else in the works either. If this falls through, which it looks like it might, all we will have accomplished as a club is a couple of young and unproven kids, and a bench player.
It really is shocking still, while not being super surprising, how inept we apparently are.

I don't care. They're not having my money anymore. Or my time.
And then they signed Lewendowski, Raphinha and Kuonde. Plus a load of freebies on big wages
But none of this comes as a shock, this sort of thing has happened before a few times.
As you say, weeks to get this done, why are we still negotiating last minute, as one of Europe's wealthiest clubs, this makes us look like second hand car dealers.
I know it's The Sun but in case the Perro deal falls thru Spurs could do worse than getting Kyle Walker in (he's been a bit in...

What happened to the don?
It’s Paratici job to identify players to buy and line up deals, why has he done such a bad job of doing this? What happened to him lining up multiple deals a one time in case a situation like the porro deal collapses?
IF and I mean IF the money is there to buy porro why do we seem to have no alternatives?
It all skinks of Levy imo, he won’t spend the money on conte players while conte won’t commit to a long time contract and conte won’t commit until ENIC spend the money.
If we don’t buy anyone tomorrow the heat will/should be turn up on ENIC enough is enough.
GET OUT OF OUR CLUB
Yes, a year after they trimmed their salary bill significantly.
A load of freebies was 3 players...
Yes.
Davies is decent squad player.
Yes.
Lenglet ONCE UPON A TIME got into Barca side.
But right now Lenglet is not even decent squad player. He is not good enough to play in EPL. There are so many examples when he also gets ripped apart by wingers. Only to turn off from Lenglet one does not have to be even good. Pace above average is already enough. Seriously look how slow his first steps are.
True that on the ball Lenglet is better. But defensively Davies is better. And difference in defensive side is bigger and it outweighs the passing.
You're right, the story about Paratici was always that he always had multiple irons in the fire. Either that was never was or isn't the case now, Levy handcuffed him, or maybe his legal issues threw everything into chaos. I don't know which it is but it's going to get ugly for Levy.
I have no idea where this quote comes from, but Kim Min-Jae didn't join Fenerbahce until August 2021. Mourinho was sacked in April that same year...
Why do we not loan to Premier league teams anymore? What good is a loan to Rennes? About as good as Rodon loan I suppose.
I’m not having we couldn’t loan out Spence, Rodon and Gill to premiership clubs to get USEFUL experience
