Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Don't worry lads the future is bright for our infrastructure, just ask this ITK

"Prof:

The club is close to finalizing an influx of funds. Much of it is earmarked for infrastructure projects (eg hotel and training ground). Trying to ascertain how much, if any, will be allocated to transfers."

I'm not even saying this for the sake of it...How fucking weird is this interview? with Marinakis watching over him like he's being forced to say these things. MGW looks so uncomfortable.

Really fucking odd.

Arms folded..
AI Overview

When someone crosses their arms, it typically indicates a defensive or closed-off posture in body language. It can suggest disagreement, insecurity, or a desire to create a barrier between themselves and the other person. However, the interpretation of crossed arms can vary depending on the context and individual, as it may also be a comfortable or self-soothing pose.
 
Don't know about anyone else I am more disappointed by the fact the original announcement claimed the deal was done and medical booked.

We can all be forgiven for experiencing (not my first) P.E. on hearing that news and the fiasco that followed can only be described as comedic though in the farcical sense.

The events leading to this conclusion will come to the fore eventually and if anyone on our side as indeed fucked up I expect them to held accountable.

Another matter I'm curious about is the deets of his new contract and what made him sign so quickly when he had held out for nearly 12 months despite being offered nearly double his wages....unless that info is also BS of course.

Shame really I for one really rated him as a player and one things for sure this will certainly some spice to our coming fixtures with them...can't wait.
I am also gutted, think MGW would have added a spark and energy to the midfield and brought a quick turn and pass through to the forwards that would have resulted in goals.
Equally I am confused about the yes / no *pause* new contract unless he was holding out for a Man City or Liverpool type offer. It seems unlikely we sent in the offer with no contact with at least his agent to sound out of he might come. I don't buy all the conspiracy theory stuff about Levy doing this on purpose, but the outcome from the point of view of rival fans is we are a laughing stock, but also more worrying questions the clubs ambitions and abilities for players both at the club and we are hoping to sign.
 
I’m not sure why people are shocked we have only made 1 signing , we appointed TF who is used to working with minimal investment.
Maybe we get one more in before the window closes but we have a big squad and the plan will be he uses it , Levy saying he wants to win it all was just gas lighting !
 
Activation of a release clause often causes indignation on the part of the selling party for whatever reason, even if it's more than good value for the said player.

WH fans were also pouting about selling Kudus for "only" 55M just because he had a release clause of 85M, even though the guy is not worth anything close to the latter.

Their owner probably felt the same indignation and stopped the move using a combination of carrots and sticks. Simple as that.
 
You were one of the ones last summer saying that the window was good and the kids would step up weren't you?

Did you enjoy the record league losses?

This window is shaping up to be even worse than last summer was, so maybe instead of having a pop at genuinely concerned fans who can see which way the wind is blowing due to years of experience watching ENIC operate you can stand in solidarity and realise we are all being shafted by these frauds.
He's a shill for Levy. A troll.
Nothing more...Nothing less
