Eds, do you know if ARSEnal have bid for Lamela or anyone else for that matter, He is a fantastic player and cannot understand why no one else is after him!

Also how complex are his ownership issues are they similar to Damiao' issues and do you know how close we might be to signing him? {Ed002's Note - Roma put the money in to ESCROW to overcome the ownership issues, so that is not a problem. There has been plenty of interest from elsewhere and other offers were put on the table. Spurs have the advantage of Baldini. The player is high maintenance.}

I don't think he's coming to Spurs now, seems like they are trying to get Hulk. An outside chance he may be signed

I thought he had a second Spanish passport so wouldn't need a work permit.

So eds002- do you think he will sign for spurs? How close is the deal (for Lamela)? {Ed002's Note - The deal is agreed subject to a work permit being provided. And you need to get yourself registered to use the site from now on.}
