Transfers Summer 2020 Transfer Thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

What’s the deal with Coutinho? Barcelona pay an ungodly sum for him and then loan him out as soon as they can and now Bayern don’t even want him. Every transfer window they are trying to offload him.

The last couple times I’ve seen him against Spurs he’s looked great.

I think he struggled to live up to the hype at Barca. 10 goals in all comps in his first season over there. 13 in his second. 9 goals for Bayern. And then we can add on a bunch of assists as well. Which to me is perfectly fine numbers.

My guess is that maybe he is better off at a club on the level below the club that subscribes to the league title year after year.
 
Fix our midfield and our RB won't be a problem anymore. But let's suppose it's our major problem, who would we buy to fix that? Fucking Max Aarons? The guy is far worse than Aurier, and the fact he wasn't even one of the best player in a relegated side should say something to you. Only one that maybe we could bring in is Dest, but also, nothing guaranteed and will cost probably more than 40 million quid.
I'm going on the record Max Aarons is NOT joining Bayern Munich. He is not good enough to play for us yet he MAY be good enough in three years to be a starting RB for us but I want us fighting for titles and a top four place.

What's the deal with Bale?
RM don't want but that doesn't make him a bad player.
Coutinho to Spurs and Ndumb to Barcelona makes too much sense for it to happen.
 
Would anyone be happy with this outcome this summer?

Out:
Aurier 16m
Foyth 20m
Rose £5m
Walker-Peters 12m
Carter-Vickers 5m
58m

In:
Hojbjerg 18m
Aarons 20m
Muriqi 18m
Coutinho loan.
56m

Would you take that?
 
Swap Callum Wilson for Muriqi then probably yes i would, although leaves us one right back in Aarons and maybe Tanganga as cover. Big risk. Could add Amos to the outs.
I like Wilson, but I don’t believe for a second Bournemouth would sell him for £10m. Anything over £20m is too much for someone who’s had bad injuries. I like Muriqi, he’s strong, a real nuisance for defenders, a bit nasty. A little bit Diego Costa. And Fenerbahce are in all sorts of financial problems.

Havent seen Muriqi but with a short turn around i think prem experience could be important. I think with Wilsons current form and wages he'll be pretty cheap, no more than 15m.

I still can’t see it. With King’s contract running down they’re more likely to sell him. Why sell a proven scorer for so little when he could score you the goals that would take you back to the PL and 100s of millions?

Lamela £15m
Foyth £15m
Rose £5m
Amos £5m
Walker-Peters 12m
Carter-Vickers 5m
79m

In:
Hojbjerg £18m
Aarons £20m
Wilson or King £18m
Eze £20m
76m

Think this is better - Wilson or King both HG and know PL, Eze can replace the ever injured Lamela and would probably develop into a key player for us.

Coutinho's wages probably impossible for any club, so Barca might need to bear 75% to have it done.

Might also think of selling 30 year old Sissoko, maybe add the Korean CB with the money
