We will sign Eze instead.

Also I dont understand why so many are assuming that we want a right winger. We won't sign someone to replace Brennan Johnson on the right who we signed for nearly 50m and actually had a good season last year. The club also signed Odobert last summer who they still regard as a top prospect. They aren't going to sing a third right winger in 3 years. We were never in for Mbeumo either. Was all nonsense reports by brentford that spurs played along with just to get United to pay the full fee.

I don't mind is signing KWP because it's so convenient but I hope this doesn't stop us signing a proper left back. Udogie needs proper cover and even some competition. The drop off to Spence is huge and he is also needed on the right to cover Porro.

Often a creative force on one side is best complemented by a player who focuses on getting into goal-scoring positions.

Brennan excels at getting into goal-scoring positions and if we can get the right player for the left, Brennan will become a 25-30 goal a season man. All we have to do is let Brennan do what he's good at and get someone else on the other side to do all the man-beating and chance creation.

Both Odobert and Johnson are right-footed and Frank prefer to play with inverted WF. But Frank may well, of course, for now play Johnson as RWF.
Spurs, again, have the following LFW: Son, Yang, Moore, Johnson, Solomon, Odobert, Tel, Richarlison. So presume that Spurs will spend big on another LFW when they are over-crowded makes less sense then.
Even if Son, Richarlison and Odobert are sold, Spurs still have plenty of LFW.

He's played in the championship and for the best team in Portugal with 13 teams that are absolute cannon fodder.

Can belittle Solanke having a good season all you want but you don't get 19 goals in a premier league season in off your arse. He's no mug and he's proved it in the best league in the world. Not stat padding against muck for the champions of the league.

Thats just a very narrow minded view though. Many outstanding players have come from the Portuguese League and to dismiss him out of hand is just silly.

And at no point did I call Solanke a mug. I just don’t think he is or ever will be a top level striker and I think spending 65 million on him was poor business.
Many, many strikers have scored high numbers of goals in a single season in the Premier League, does not mean they are top strikers.
Chris Wood for example scored 20(!) PL goals this season, would you take him at Spurs ahead of Gyokeres?

Who are you selling to create a squad place in CL - a maximum of 21 Overseas and HG players (so less than 2 players per team position) plus CT and List B allowed in CL squad.

Don't be silly that doesn't matter, I just want 10 of the best brands (footballers) that are the buzz news now then I can kick off later and blame levy for not giving youth a chance
