Transfers Summer 2019 transfer thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

According to CIES, we are committed to investing $170m from the 2019 transfer window, which is only €7m less than Man City spent. Nobody can have a moan about our goings on or the investment from the board this summer surely!

Bale improves us big time.
He is the quality of player we are unable to sign and therefore don't see it happening unfortunately.

Seems like a pretty humble lad with a massive twat of an agent pulling the strings.
So far it's worked, and he has made an absolute fortune and won everything he could have dreamed of.
The lad still has at least 3-4 good seasons left in him. For 60mil and 300k per week - sound like a great marquee signing with a lot of commercial value. Expect it would be a huge boost for the dressing room too.

If the problem is he left us - sorry but you should probably get over that.
If the problem is his injury record - I would expect 30-40 games a season from him. Thats good for us.
If the problem is the salary - 300k isnt that bad compared with some players on bigger money. It would be a serious statement of intent.
If the problem is his age/resale - why? Every player eventually has a club that they either retire at or move on for negligible fees relatively.

Am I not right in thinking we all want us to be competing at the level of PSG, Utd, City, Madrid, Barca, Juva both financially and on the field? Rather us sign youngsters and convert them to world class and hope they 'dont do a Bale' on us? To be on that level we need to sign world class players. We aint getting close to signing anyone else near his level. Fuck off if you want to tell me that Lo Celso bloke is anywhere near Bales standards.

Personally I would love us to dominate world football with 100% academy products. Next best is to buy youngsters cheap and develop them into world class footballers. Reality is that simply wont happen unfortunately. Nor will Bale - but to suggest re signing him wouldn't be a huge benefit to the club seems ludicrous to me.


Bale says stop ( dice basta)

Bruno Fernandes has revealed he was furious to have a potential move to Tottenham in 2019 blocked by his club at the time.

Spurs were interested in the Portuguese star three years ago, when Mauricio Pochettino was in charge, but Sporting Lisbon turned down their approaches.

Fernandes got his move to the Premier League a few months later, joining Manchester United in the January transfer window, but the midfielder admitted he was incredibly frustrated when he was preventing from moving to Tottenham…
