Transfers January 2018 transfer thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Looking at the squad, it seems to be fairly clear we need at least one CM, another AM/wide forward with plenty of pace, and another wide forward/striker candidate (in case Son cannot get a deferral). I would hope that we're scouting hard for those kinds of players, but we don't seem to get linked in the press with very much. Not that media mentions are really a sign of anything, in any event.
 
These 2 sound promising but would Ajax want to sell to us again?

They seem to take pride in the fact that Eriksen, Jan, etc started with them but being asset stripped every year must piss them off.
I'm sure that it is irritating for the fans, but this seems to be the Ajax model, no? As long as we aren't doing anything improper to their players and we work fairly with them it really shouldn't be a problem.

Isnt it how they survive?

Agree but it must get to a point when enough is enough. These lads are only 18.
I'd be freaking if it was happening to us.

These are exactly the sort of January signings that I like.

Probably just on our radar if anything.

Not sure how they're performing this year but Kluivert had quite the breakout year last season.

DVDB has been highly rated for years.

In all honesty, if we were to sign anyone from Ajax, I'd go for their young centre half de Ligt, but I think we are pretty stacked there.
 
Donny has his own song already. We have to sign him now. Sung to daisy, daisy, obviously. I thank you.

Beek-y, beek-y, give us a goal, do
i'm half crazy, over that pass from you
you don't have the shins of Sturridge,
i'm not going to mention Claridge,
but you'll look sweet,
with your dancing feet,
if your bicycle kick comes through.
