Based on reports, I don’t think Newcastle will pay that much either

He has one year left on his contract.
Leicester can fuck off at that price. Let Newcastle have him.
I'm of the mind that for that money we ought to be able to get a player far more specific to our needs and that doesn't have the dodgy injury history.
Square peg with a peg leg IMO

55m you say, onto option 2,3, or4 then.
Leicester aren't getting 55m.
If they had stayed up maaaaybe but relegation is taking 10-15m off that easy.
Anything north of 40m is crazy.
End up with option 6 lol
Agree, we've reached the heights and not taken the opportunity.
It's going to be very tough unless our scouting team or ange can get some under the radar gems.
It makes me question whether even 150 million is worth taking for kane now. But I do think he deserves it.
I'm talking specifically about STs.......
In terms of general attacking players the market is MUCH broader and deeper.
As a supporter of THFC first and foremost; that's just not part of the thought process to me......
I mean; "deserves" what, anyway.....? Afterall, he could very realistically go to Man U and yet not win a single big trophy.
(IMO City have shit locked-down at least until Pep leaves now.... Possibly including the CL.)
Can we sign Valentin Castellanos? Played for Girona last season and scored 4 against Real Madrid. Just a thought
sPuRz DoNt BuY 55m pLaYeRz
Nobody ever said that.
70-90m is what we don't do
He does know where the goal is but no
The few posts above mine are suggesting that very thing.... I wouldn't have made the post I did otherwise.
Agreed. Tbh I wouldn't go a penny above 30 mil if that was me footing the bill. He is 26 already. Comes from a relegated team. Guy pretty much never gets picked for England matches. Has had his fair share of injuries. Doesn't look like a hard worker...or a particularly nice bloke. But yeah, he can pick a pass & score a few.
I'd happily let the Geordies have him and focus on someone younger and with a better mindset.
Saw some suggesting we won't pay 55m for Maddison and will move onto cheaper targets.
Tbh, most of us would probably agree with Baldy for that decision.
We were interested in him before he went to Palace, now would probably have to pay close to 40m.
In terms of strikers at a premium, agree very few and far between. A year ago with conte we may have had a chance at a lautaro martinez, Raphael leao or osimhen before we fell to pieces.
As the second greatest spurs striker ever, and greatest spurs striker of modern era he deserves to go somewhere that is designed to win or at minimum surrounds him with players of a reasonable calibre. If not UK then a Real Madrid, Inter Milan, PSG, anywhere with serious title and cup ambitions.
Spent years carrying this club to new heights. He could have earnt and won more elsewhere. Showed loyalty by signing long term contract which gave us his prime years.
My biggest thing with him is his mettle, he's technically very good and all that but he supposedly Leicesters main man and they dropped him for games in a relegation battle.
Unless that was supposed to be Dean Smith's master plan to unleash him once opposition tired
Overall he is a good player though, has proven it in prem and if he went Newcastle and does well we will cry about it and bash Enic with it
Tottenham Hotspur Miss Out On Midfield Talent After Refusing To Match Rivals’ Offer
Tottenham Hotspur have missed out on highly rated midfielder Jamaldeen Jimoh due to being unwilling to match Aston Villa's lucrative offer.

Tottenham Hotspur have missed out on highly rated Jamaldeen Jimoh after being reluctant to match Aston Villa’s lucrative package for the West Brom academy starlet, according to the Birmingham Mail.
Spurs are keen to add talents to their academy set-up as they look to ensure a good flow of players through to the first team.
They zeroed in on West Brom’s midfielder Jimoh and were keen to take him to north London, but have been beaten to the punch.
It is claimed that the lucrative package Aston Villa put in front of Jimoh was one which Tottenham were unwilling to match.
Aston Villa are said to be paying £1m to get the deal done and West Brom will also receive ten per cent of any future transfer for the player.
Jimoh, 16, has so far earned seven caps for England Under-17s while bagging one goal and providing two assists, being considered a hot prospect for the future.
All eyes will be on whether Tottenham regret not going the extra mile to land Jimoh, who will continue his development at Aston Villa.
Spurs appointed Ange Postecoglou as their permanent manager recently and it remains to be seen how the proven boss wields his wand with respect to dealing with the academy starlets and giving them breakthroughs.

Shame, Sonny & Jimoh could have been a good combo. Ange could bollock them in one sentence. "Now listen here Sonny Jimoh"
