What list.... What have I missed?
Probably no real surprises on the list - but who published the list ?
Add to the list Cameron Carter-Vickers and Luke Amos, both with a decent amount of championship experience.
I wonder what that list of players would fetch collectively. I’m gonna say maybe 50-55mill?
Not surprising really, but we shouldn't be giving up on him before the lad has done a full season. It might be beneficial if he comes back to us and trains with the first team.
Not a realistic signing and not doing well at Atletico anyway?
Interesting one going into this summer with all things considered. A lack of revenue, a strong possibility that we miss out on Europe altogether, not just the Champions League, players being linked at the c£20m-£25m mark across a lot of positions and a fair few fighting for their Spurs careers it seems.
I can see this summer being one where we artfully try to plug holes. We constantly seem to get linked with players entering the final year or two of their contracts (Vazquez, Castagne, Hojbjerg etc) so when thinking about a realistic and fair budget before anything made on player sales I can honestly see the club giving Jose £50m and telling him he needs to shift a few to bring that number up to what he would need to buy any remaining players to plug gaps.
Gabriel Meghales is a left footed CB so I absolutely see truth in that one to cover Ben and offer Vertonghen options.
Kim is one that would make sense as well with the Sonny/ South Korea link and an ability to hopefully add depth/ competition long term.
Castagne a RB so it was inevitable after Meunier went to Dortmund that we would start to see names in this position pointed in our direction.
Vazquez I don’t see the point in in all fairness, unless Mourinho is looking to shift Lamela out of the door.
Hojbjerg the only one I really know much about and just makes sense being a PL captain, one year left on his deal, pedigree at international level and champions league level etc so I honestly see this one getting done sooner rather than later.
All of these lads are apparently around the £20m -£25m mark but I wouldn’t be able to tell you much about them, it does intrigue me a lot to see our transfer strategy play out and how we implement certain changes.
£50m+ any money made on player sales sound reasonable fair to you lot?

Not sure about whether it's reasonable when top clubs will spend that amount on players individually at least.
But this is Tottenham and we do things differently especially now with the virus situation, I can see any signings we make will be solid if not spectacular, that is I suppose the best we can hope for given the situation that surrounds us as a club.
The past 2 games have showed Mourinho likes Lamela as a No.10, so we have Lucas, Bergwijn & Son which he may want one more hence Lucas number 2 links
Im not sure we’d get another top draw right back any cheaper. The fact that dortmund didn’t push the button on him must mean they aren’t expecting any money in during the next window so I suspect Sancho will be staying there another year.
Ive always been surprised that Man City haven’t gone for him saying how much Guardiola likes him. Mind you, they didn’t bother replacing their defence adequately when kompany left so who knows.
They got much better player, yes he's 30, doesn't matter.
Solid player. Great mentality, good condition and can also play LB if needed.
He isnt world class but I am sure he could do a job for us.
Bit like Davies but better going forward.
Can’t believe a swap deal actually happened.
