Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

What the fuck is going on? Every single deal we have tried to get over the line has failed? Despite making sizeable bids.

MGW? Eze? Paz?

Never seen a summer like it
I think the only one we got unlucky on was MGW who fell through because of Marinakis being Marinakis. The player wanted us.

Eze always wanted Woolwich and was pushing for it whilst we were in talks. Arteta even confirmed that Eze called him personally last minute to see if he definitely couldn’t join.

And Paz, well. We’ve already talked about it on here but with Madrid in the picture it was unlikely that he was ever going to be ours. They’re the biggest club in the world.

We had no business going for either of them to be honest. The rejections have just damaged our reputation by making us look undesirable.

What we need is Paratici to work some magic over the next 7 days because I’ve got zero faith in Lange or Levy doing anything of note.
 
If it was me I'd get alikouche and bounotte as AM options. Savinho as winger and lookman as another striker. We need another LCB as if vdv hamstring pops we dont have cover. That Hincapie has chelsea vibes about it imo.
 
Get Savinho over the line since it’s Frank’s number one target.

After that, it is what it is. The last thing we need to do is spend 35 mil on some 10 that’s really worth 18-20 who will just rot away on our bench for 3 years after he’s failed. We have about 8 of them in our squad right now already.

I’d rather just get by with what we have and wait for the actual answer.
