Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

According to Fichajes, Tottenham Hotspur are now eyeing a move for Alexander Sorloth from Atletico Madrid.

The 29-year-old Norwegian is looking for a change. After the arrival of Julian Alvarez, he is not the first-choice striker for Diego Simeone.

Even after scoring 24 goals in 53 matches, Sorloth feels inferior to Alvarez. That is why he wants to return to the Premier League.

Nah, us fans don't need to recalibrate anything. Levy does. If you want to deliver Brighton-level signings, then charge Brighton-level ticket prices.

We play in a £1bn stadium and pay £1600 for our season tickets. We have every right to demand a squad with more established players. If Levy wants us to sit in the stands and watch youngsters learn the game, then he should be charging us 75% less.

I was obviously being facetious mate.

I just can’t understand how anyone who genuinely supports the club could honestly give that rose tinted assessment of our transfer/recruitment strategy.

Your narrative paints a picture of a club that knows what they’re doing.

Well, I simply looked at the players we have bought - i gett he feeling you aren't really talking about strategy though. You are talking about quality of player or something else - of which im not quite sure to be honest.

Ill ask the same to you - try to be impartial, if at all possible.

Looking at the players we have purchased the last few seasons, what do you think our strategy has been?

Fichajes don’t know shit. Atleti want to raise money after a load of buys and think Sorloth might have a market in the PL. he’s a donkey but would do well Brentford or ok at Villa, even replacing Wilson as Newcastle back up striker

He's shite, he's done well in Spain because he's a big fucking lump and they don't have many of his type there and defenders are generally shorter/less athletic so kick it to the big man as a plan B can work. England has lots of his type and generally big central defenders.

Same story with that Dovbyk at Girona.
 
Also Van Der Vaart and the point still stands.

As for Micky, that was one of the risky punts, he'd one season at Bundesliga level. Think Wolfsburg accounts aren't doing too well as it happens.


As reported by Braunschweiger-Zeitung, the German Football League (DFL) have now published the financial figures of each club in the top-flight from the 2023/24 season - and it doesn't make good reading for Wolfsburg.

The accounts show that the 2009 Bundesliga winners have made a loss of just over €15 million (£12.63million), a staggering drop from the €118,000 (£99, 362) profit published in the previous calendar year.
 
Yup

But we are safe from this one.

Probably ... no link really matters currently, the media have gone in to overdrive on us since missing out on Eze because they assume we're gonna scatter gun .. that and they like winding up Spurs fans.

I think we'll go back in for Savinho again and submit a bid which is big but not quite big enough and then Levy can say we really tried and we offered a record fee.
