Don't think that's right, reported it was only if we qualified for CL that season and we negotiated the fee down.

Never clear on that as we qualified for CL in his first season at Spurs not 2nd season and the loan ran for a minimum 6 months with a possibility of 18 months.

So in theory we could have tried to exercise the break clause after 6 months only to be told an obligation to buy has been triggered but if you want an extra loan for a year that's fine

Without the detailed wording of the clauses its impossible to be sure : but we did buy him at end of 18 months, whether legally as an obligation or option unsure and it may have been at a compromise price as the wording of clause was imprecise and neither club wished to go to court over it.

We negotiated the fee down so didn't take the option - we wanted him. No suggestions of wording or court were made.

NOBODY PANIC ABOUT THE WINGER, EVERYONE! WE'RE SORTED

Don’t panic! (Dad’s army). Told we will not be disappointed. Agreement as good as in place on another wide player. If I had his name I would share it back office, but I do not.

He's spent in excess of a billion quid on players, which is arguably their revenue the entire time. That's before operating costs, wages etc etc. Dodgy as fuck.
Surely now they are just buying players to help survive the period they have an inevitable ban and transfer emb
