Transfers January Transfer Thread 24/25

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Tbh with the rose tinted glasses off you can see why players who aren’t Spurs fans themselves are going to choose Juve.

I know there’s a certain element of “pay the wages and they join” but let’s be honest a lot of these players look at the table and the prospects of the club, we’re 13th, and people will be in his ear telling him how we’re run. At this moment in time this is very much our level for me.

Young, fairly unknown, promising players might look at us, but the slightly older players who have a bit more name to them I think are always going to look at clubs other than us until we show we’re taking this whole ‘winning things’ idea seriously.
 
Really disappointing if we end up missing out on a top target. We badly need attacking reinforcements.

How do you know its a top target?

Press were reporting we were contemplating a move for Sam Johnstone just 2 days before we signed Kinsky, someone we literally heard not a peep about.

Every window it's the same.

In the summer we were linked to Hudson Odoi and all other kind of players which we seemingly didn't target at all.
 
Ah the past. The historic past that certain people want desperately to cling too. Folk like the late Silvio Berlusconi, and Co. They don't have a pot to piss in. If we wanted him we have the only things that count money. Juve talk big and the fact that once upon a time a French bloke played for them is about as bonkers a reason as I can think of for why any transfer would not happen.
This did not age well…

 
Personally I dont want Rashford on loan, a permanent, or a buy one get one free.

Why would we want him here sulking and acting billy big bollocks? Our team lacks leaders and bottle, he adds neither.

I’m hopeful the links (outside of this thread) have died for a reason.
 
Always have to doubt a player that picks Serie A over the best league in the world, certainly took the easy option
Italy.

Extremely reliable jounalists such as Fabrice Hawkins, Romano etc have all said Muani was our top target for January and it was essentially between Juventus and Us. We obviously did what we could to entice him but it wasn't to be. Just because we didn't sign him, you don't have to now pretend he wasn't a top target, that's just silly.

Sam Johnstone was never linked to us as a top target, just that he was on our list, which I am sure he was.
