Your description of why we shouldn’t go for him has convinced me that we will. Typical Spurs.I don't think Soumare is what we should be going for. He is a CM masquerading as a DM. His skill set is more in line with a Winks or Ndombele than a Wanyama or Ndidi.
Lille are also quoted as wanting 50+ mil for him.
I would rather see us go for an actual DM than a converted central midfielder that doesn't tackle as much as his new position requires.
Some part of me believes that Campos will only sell him to us if he deems it a good deal for us too.I don't think Soumare is what we should be going for. He is a CM masquerading as a DM. His skill set is more in line with a Winks or Ndombele than a Wanyama or Ndidi.

Has been in the last 12 months.

Since he might join is later anyway.
If we wouldn’t already have Ndombele in the squad, it would be a no brainer (for the right price)
I would be pretty surprised if the club didn't have full knowledge of Soumare. We bought in Joao Sacramento (Ass Man) and Nuno Santos (GK coach) from Lille
He's having 'issues' at Schalke as well. There might be something wrong 'up top' there. But coming 'home' can help those matters. He would be cheap (like Schalke might even pay us to take him), HG, and potentially useful. Would have to be a pay to play situation but CP is also interested.Now that Pochettino is gone I would absolutely love for Bentaleb to come back. Still at a good age, loves the club, homegrown and gives us nice depth in the midfield. Plus he's a good footballer, better than our other DMs.
We are a club at the highest levelFor some reason Sky are running quotes from Jose on Bruno Fernandes from last month.
"I would definitely say no, because Bruno is a player of a level and value that is not for us," Mourinho said last month.
"We are not a club that is going to make big transfers in the market, nor is it going towards players who are already developed or at a certain level of expectation. We are a different club at this level”
my question. Is what level are we ?
Having brought in mourinho I'd be amazed if levy isnt splashing the cash.
