Transfers The Summer Transfer Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

They are right to ask for a huge amount. They don't need the cash, he's their captain and we have just taken their manager and bulk of good coaching staff so who can blame them for asking for such an unrealistic amount.
I would want us to do the exact same in their position so fair play to them

Exactly. It is the distinction between market value and club value.

As much as people are using Ben Davies as some new reason to bitch about the club, if someone wanted to buy him we could easily quote £10m as you're going to have difficultly finding a HG defender that is rarely injured and puts in a solid 7/10 regularly (ask us how we know..). Doesn't mean he's worth £10m on the open market, but its an idea of how much it would take for us to want to sell.
(bearing in mind £10m is apparently the price to get a free TAA 3 weeks early)
 
I still think we should offer £100m for Wharton and knock all the other transfers on the head for this summer. Get 1 massive upgrade and then let Frank work the rest of the squad out and make further moves next summer.

Whether we like it or not, this will be a transition season

Why he's coming to Spurs when he's destined for bigger things?
 
What a load of nonsense....he's 31 ffs lol
Hardly nonsense considering he is one of Franks all time favorites and he says to danish news he wants some experience on the pitch since the team is young. I think there are better options considering his age he is highly underrated though but also just signed a new contract so he wont be cheap. Morten Hjulmand or Frendrup would be better options in my opinion but to be frank i dont think TS cares much about my opinion.
 
Wouldn't be so quick to dismiss Johnson now that we have Frank, he wanted Johnson for ages.

Could be a genuine cheat code and could use him in a similar was to Mbuemo or if he lines up in a 3-5-2 could use him to play off Solanke like he had Wissa and Maupay playing off Toney, or could be a counter attack option off the bench.

He''ll definitely become a fixture in the team for Frank

The people dismissing Johnson are the people who have always dismissed him.

Top scorer last season.
Scored the winning goal in a cup final and numerous other important goals.

He'll be important for us again this season and he'll still get hate.

Brennan Johnson, a genuine cheat code.

TBH I would have been fine if the club sold him when we were linked with Xavi.

Would be silly to move him on from a manager who has been chasing him and now gets to use him.

Half the 'fans' shitting on him are idiots who think he should be bombing it down the wings Bale-style, taking on and dribbling past 3-4 players.

He did what he was supposed to do in the system we were using last season, simple as that. I look forward to seeing how Frank uses him.

This is one of the main reasons I'm not hung up on us signing a RW. I think Johnson can go up another level next year and I still hope Odobert can blossom into a top winger. Its why I'm happy for us to sign Eze instead of Semenyo.

He's just not aesthetically pleasing which makes him very underrated because he is very effective at what he does. He has always reminded me of Raheem Sterling. Tap in merchant who might lose the ball a lot but his numbers from out wide are top class.
