Because they bent over for Southampton and it needed Southampton to press for sanctions for tapping up.Well they were pretty much forced into doing this by Saints publicly outing them and reporting them.
Did they face any sanctions? No.
Loan today as opposed to offering €5m euros less than Genoa’s asking price yesterday. New version tomorrow.
Football Insider have shared an interesting line on the story today, with Tottenham already making an under-the-radar offer.
Spurs have loan bid rejected for Dragusin
Indeed, according to their information, Tottenham have tabled a bid to sign Dragusin on loan, but Genoa swiftly rejected that proposal as they hold out for a permanent deal.
The Serie A side want what FI describe as a "big January cash windfall", and won't entertain offers of a loan or loan-to-buy this month. In any case, it is also believed that Tottenham remain confident they'll sign the Romania international after agreeing terms with him.

We always do loan with an obligation these days. Think there must be some accounting reason, normally other side sign up so I don't think it's underpayingLoan today as opposed to offering €5m euros less than Genoa’s asking price yesterday. New version tomorrow.

What are you talking about you sausage?
He’s the one who brought up the tapping up nonsense, not me.
The person who started this debate was YOU when you questioned when do January deals get done early and I stung you with an answer you didn’t like or didn’t fit your agenda, remember?
So boring and predictable.
I guess it’s worth it for the 1.17m saved over 5 years.
Ok Mr third place.
Most of the agents and clubs, must all be aware of this predictable and boring strategy.So boring and predictable.

Blatantly going to play. This one is following a very familiar pattern. Expect it to drag at least 2 more weeksI think Genoa play tomorrow night, will be interesting to see if he plays or not, depending on whether we agree a deal during the day.
Ok Mr third place.
You still enjoying your pre season with Davinson?
Need a CB now, but will gamble on the player wanting to come, so drag it out by asking if Genoa will pay for his flight over.Blatantly going to play. This one is following a very familiar pattern. Expect it to drag at least 2 more weeks
