The claim that Luke Shaw is still avaliable is more to do with the kids talent and the current stature of his club Southampton.
Whilst the saints are now a financially stable club they are not a big powerhouse that can truly turn down a mega offer for one of their talents, just like we couldn't turn down Man Utd when they wanted Carrick, and that's why he's still avaliable. His club are likely to listen to offers and if they get one that meets their valuation then they'll sell as they could do with the money to run the club/fund more transfers.
Former club official Antonio Sese, who retains strong links to the Mestalla outfit, reveals that Spurs have agreed to pay the striker's buyout clause, with a deal imminent
Tottenham's €30 million (£25.9m) purchase of Roberto Soldado is set to be imminently confirmed, says a former Valencia director.
"They tell me that shortly Roberto Soldado will be officially transferred," Sese wrote on Twitter.

15 upfront and 15 in instalments.
Say what you like about Levy, he knows how to bully a club in crisis.

Any player is available at any time for the right price. Signing a contract doesn't take the player out of some kind of pool of gettable players. It only increases his transfer price.
As does, say, playing super well. Or being homegrown. I'm not sure why you expect it to be otherwise. If I just got a pay rise at work, am I somehow not allowed to be prised away by another company? Like, some kind of one-year period in which I'm only allowed to wear black must elapse before I can listen to offers from other companies? Sure, I might feel bad that the company I've worked for put their faith in me and I turn my back the first chance I get. But surely I'd have to do that, say, for a better job, no?

If, by the end of the day we have confirmed Soldado, I don't really see any great need for additional signings. Left back being an area we can improve but it isn't imperative.
How much of a benefit is it to us to pay in instalments?
Depends on current cash flow.
Of course but beyond that I mean
If this $50 mill interest free loan from the owner is true then payment in instalments would be good as more money available for future signings plus earns extra cash (interest) I reckon Levy would make the most of maximising the benefits of this.
Making signing a contract to play at a club for 5yrs pointless. Which is what Ive said from the start.
Call it what it is instead, which is a revaluation of the player and a price hike of 10-50M. Its not a contract "extension".
lol he gets a bee in his bonnet about the funniest things.
I AM RIGHT. I AM ALWAYS RIGHT!!!!! GAAAAAA
I AM RIGHT. I AM ALWAYS RIGHT!!!!! GAAAAAA
I see what you are saying. However, it is changing the terms and duration of the contract. Which is kind of a new contract.
Its a contract within a contract!!I see what you are saying. However, it is changing the terms and duration of the contract. Which is kind of a new contract.
Can't we just be happy that we got a player we needed and levy finally stumped up for a guy in his PRIME
BENTEKE!?
Happy as a pig in shit!! But I also want Damiao
Has he signed ?
According to some ex director yes.
Too young to be considered in his prime but you never know with these African types
