Yeah. Got to feel for the kid, though. Must be very disappointing.

Wow, that's unexpected...
Guess that drives his prices through the floor?

Potentially takes him out of being transferred anywhere for some time I’d say. No club would want to sign a kid who isn’t going to be able to play many games due to persistent medical issues.
I’m pretty sure Lamela actually hid the extent of the state of his back when we signed him and look what happened there.

This one won't go away, and Jacob Steinberg is far from a gossip merchant.
Clearly Chelsea (though I suspect not Poch) would like to move him on. I've always liked him, and as some have pointed out, his stats have been fantastic this season. He'd definitely improve the squad significantly. It's just odd to see these clubs putting such important players up for sale, I never thought we'd see financial rules having such an impact.

Some small talk in The Guardian the other day of a swoop for Joshua Kimmich if we don't get CG.
No hope in hell as he is on 322,000/week.

Football transfer rumours: Joshua Kimmich to shore up Spurs’ midfield?
Jonathan David to Chelsea? | Brentford to beat Spurs to Antonio Nusa? | Bruno Guimarães to PSG this summer?

Yeah I saw this and also thought it ridiculous. Our nackered old horses go to Bayern; theirs don't come our way!Some small talk in The Guardian the other day of a swoop for Joshua Kimmich if we don't get CG.

Paratici cannot conduct any transfer market activity directly - he cannot talk to agents nor negotiate deals, which is a fundamental part of his job as managing director of football - but he can work internally at Spurs, including attending meetings.
Why is this news?

You know what... Benzema for a season wouldn't be a bad shout in the Prem...
Like to see how he shaped up.

I've even seen the word "wonderkid" touted for this one. Clearly as he's now signing, he's the new Ronaldo/Messi/Neymar rolled in to one.

Hopefully not the new Erik Edman…..
Beating Barcelona and Bayern to 2 signings in a window says alot about what we as a club can offer

It's said that Kulusevski met up with him and talked up the club to persuade him to join.
If it's another Don Fabio special then we're going to have a hell of a squad when he joins up in the summer.

2 up & coming players chose Spurs over two teams in the highest tier.
It really looks like the stars have finally aligned in terms of our organization & we're starting to reap the benefits while other clubs are struggling financially & have lost some of their magnetism.
That's why I believe it has more to do than just financials. Ange is creating an appealing culture & competitive mindset within the club & his reach carries beyond. Players are taking notice.

I can see the summer being busy with players leaving. Gill, Hoijberg, Skipp, Big shorts just off the top of my head.
Just need to keep all the lads fit now and the project moving forwards...
Be great to see the side after a Ange Pre-season too... But let's get this season and CL footy boxed off first...

The financial piece is big, but being a club where players think they might have a chance to break through (as opposed to Citeh, where players like Kalvin Phillips wither on the vine) will always be important. It also means that we get smart players who have planned out their development.

Ange at his presser .. "The only disappointing one for us was that I felt there was a good opportunity for us, but the club didn't feel it was right and he ended up going elsewhere. He went to Ferrari instead.....I got you all going there didn't I?"
