Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Waiting till there's 10 days left in the window in order to do a deal with one of the biggest clubs in the world and new richest teams in Como is so Spurs.

Unbelieve levels of incompetence
 
The Paz deal will drag on until deadline day with Romano tweeting that we are still trying to get it done, but it's complicated.

Will probably get agreed and then fall apart over image rights or some shit or some third party nonsense.

We've seen this movie a hundred times before.
 
I also question why we are still pissing around trying to sign a 10 and LW with essentially just over a week left until the window closes.

We do it every year, always run out of time and leave the team and manager and fans well short on quality, and our season suffers as a result.

It's almost like, wait for it, Levy wants these deals to fall apart so he doesn't have to spend.
 
The Paz deal is a logistical nightmare with both Real's buyback and the clause that gives them 50% of any transfer fee. If we wanted this player we should have made a serious bid earlier in the window, we are never going to conclude such a complex deal in 10 days. Levy just lining up another "we tried".
 
There are many quote about levy being difficult, moving goal posts and such. Fergie said his hip replacement was less painful than dealing with levy.
Levy been at it for 25 years and the other chairman are probably sick of him and don't want to deal with him if they can help it

"Difficult" doesn't mean they wouldn't happily take his money.
 
Looks like more and more picking up on the Paz rumours

They will have to overpay but that’s what happens when you are faced with a disaster of a window and you’re staring down the barrel of getting no one,

Have a feeling that if they could get Paz done they might have accidentally staggered into a player better than MGW or Eze within 2 seasons

Never gonna happen

I wouldn't trust Levy and Lange to run a bath at this point

We already looked into him a few weeks ago, at least according to the media, and clearly learned back then that any deal would be too difficult. Shameful they’re going back in now.

I wouldn’t hold my breath on it. It has the following perfect ingredients for a Levy clusterfuck:
- A rich, ambitious, reluctant seller.
- Complicated sell ons and buybacks.
- A player dying to get back to Real somehow.
- That little cockweasel Fabregas.
 
Its very much Daniel Levy's M.O. Surely after this window he can't expect to keep getting away with it?
Any grief he receives at The Lane will be brought on by himself!
 
Could people stop talking about Savinho? He’s not coming, never was. After the MGW and Eze clusterfucks how can anyone think Savinho is possible ffs.
We’ll end up with bek or Elliot or most likely no one at all. I wish I could believe like some of you but I’m too scarred
City not said much about the injury, probably out until the end of the year and will fail them medical.
