Well, We Tried Soccer Club
player rejected move.
depends on player reasons whether we go back with a different bid
Meh isn’t he going for like £80m to PSG?
That’s not dithering that’s just an unrealistic price
I don’t mind not overpaying for him
Hugo - Numerous clubs linked. Faffing about at his end.
Dav - Had 3 offers on the table earlier in window, told he could choose.... All gone quiet until new link surfaced a couple of days ago,.
PEH - Linked to Atletico all summer, but AM acting like they don't get CL dosh every damn year.
Reg - Loan offers only.... Will probably happen before the window closes tho'.
Japh - Now linked to Luton & AC Milan....... Won't start for either so no way he accepts Luton loan until AC are confirmed not an option.
Dier - Think links to a few PL clubs; but wants to stay.
+ Ndombele - Refused Turkey..... Otherwise; known dosser
(Of course none of this equates to a solid outcome; but the idea that nothing is happening and it's all just held up by Levy wanting big money is simply not true.....)
Which is why if no sale, then loans are preferable.
Maybe they won't, or not all of it but if that gets us some money back and off our books isn't that worth it?
I'd rather that than he stays until next summer and then walks out on a free. Same with some other players we want to get rid of.
Or we keep them all become nobody wants them or willing to pay the required price of won't agree to pay x % of their wages and they all stay, stinking out the place.
I know what Ange would prefer but how about you?
It's ironic, cos someone will be lecturing you or I for lacking ambition again before too long.

Try so desperately to find any shred of evidence to go against Levy when you in fact were the one who said that Paratici is in charge of recruitment when the story doesn't even add up anyway
Laughable.
The tweet mentions this as the source - no mention whatsoever of Spurs.
So this prat whose tweet you've posted has made it up to make it more interesting - and you've fallen into his trap ! He describes himself as a 'media personality' ....... not a football expert , but he does need media exposure which you've kindly given him.

....Nor know the difference between TO and FROM. : P
Seemed like he's been linked to PSG for most of the window........ When was he deemed to be 'available' to Spurs?
I assume no-one here actually knows or how that alligns with the other activities within our trf window (Kane sale being one very pertinent example)......?

I've seen Ndombele. No way that fucker has ever refused Turkey.
What utter nonsense. As if a player is going to reject his favoured option just because it took too long for them make their move. Seems a million times more likely that we were just never his favoured option, given our recent woes. People on here sometimes talk about players 'stealing a living', it's nothing compared to what so-called journalists do.
We heard similar shit about Diaz; but we were never his prefered cub either.
Turkey is the low fat option........
Perhaps sprinkling large chunks of it on a super-sized deep pan stuffed crust might have got the deal done.....?
Yeah that guy is on the wind up. Sure we could’ve gotten Kolo Muani we also could’ve gotten Tapsoba and my guess is we maybe even could’ve gotten Eze; it’s just that they’re demanding totally crazy prices for them.
I don’t see Muani as a £80m+ player to spunk the entire Kane money on. That’s fine.
The problem is that we haven’t brought in any front 3 player aside from Fulham’s rotation winger on a free. Not that we didn’t fork over gigantic fees for Muani.

Wages, wages, wages.
You think Kyle Walker stayed at City for football reasons?
City offered him a better deal (more money) to stay. This guy earns 8M a year and he re-signs for a little more money.
That's what football is today. Put that in your transfer window pipe and light up.
So as I said - we've got to pay the wages regardless, so loan them out to anyone that will have them and subsidise the wages.
Even if we get away with only paying half, that should still be a substantial saving on paying their full wages for them to be doing nothing.
He’s been going to PSG all summer. Tovelieri gets very little correct (check his ridiculous feed). He made a clickbait link to spurs and is now trying to cover his tracks.
If you think Kolo Muani was ever coming to us over PSG then you are too hysterical to reason with.
Tbh if prefer the idea Orban for 30m.
And then getting Nuamah as well.
Turn Kane money into 2 players with the potential to be world class instead of 1 that might be borderline world class.
What I don’t understand is why they are dithering on Orban as well??
