How and why Spurs moved so quickly for Timo Werner

Not much we don't already know but nice little piece - I especially liked:
In the case of Werner, Spurs acted quickly for a few reasons. One is that Postecoglou has demanded publicly and privately that the club don’t hang about this window. And among the Spurs’ hierarchy, there is a desire to give the head coach, who has made such a good start, what he wants.

Technical director Johan Lange was acutely aware of this need for speed and worked to get as much in place as possible heading into January. He was one of the key figures in this deal, along with Postecoglou, who has admired Werner for a long time and is confident the former Chelsea forward can do well in his system. In other recent deals, including ongoing ones such as the pursuit of Dragusin, Spurs’ former managing director of football Fabio Paratici — who now works for the club on a consultancy basis — has played a big part. But this was not one of them.

This so-called 'signing' has got Mr Bargain Basement Byrite's grubby little paws all over it.

"By all means get someone in, as long as he/she doesn't cost me anything."

"But Boss, he can't hit a barn door from 2 yards."

"So what. It'll give the suckers a bit of hope for a week or two, and that's all they need. Suckers."

"Shall we go for the option to buy, Boss?"

"Do what you like. He'll have failed long before June, so it's irrelevant. Just get a shirt on his back. We need to boost sales. Oh, and how are the Timo Teatowels coming along?"

Mate, here's a thought why don't you fuck off? Support the fucking player not your stupid agenda.

I’m very happy to be here, I’ve joined a very, very big club.
A lot of things attracted me here – first of all, the talk with the manager.
Also the tactics and style. For me I thought straight away that it fits perfectly.
Then the stadium, to play there every game is something special.
And also the team, I think we have some very good players.
The people who have followed me a little bit in the Premier League, they know that I can bring my speed, that I can be a threat for the opponents
Off the pitch I think I can be a funny guy and I hope that I can arrive well into the team and that they are happy with me and my personality.
I think it shouldn’t be too bad to say that I’ve come here to also win titles and to win something.
Also this was part of when I spoke to the manager, that it’s important for him and also for me that I can play every position up front.
I think that’s one of my strengths, to be flexible up front.
It should be even more special to score for Spurs as the home team, and to have the whole crowd behind you when you score is even better.
