Agree, impressed with that boy. pace, direct, can cross the ball.

30 Dec 2021 22:03:57
I agree ? but my original post meant as in who Conte wants ??.

26 Dec 2021 16:59:30
Players where interest has been shown:
Emiliano Martinez (G) Aston Villa will resist a sale but Spurs see Martinez as a Lloris replacement and West Ham see him as a Fabianski replacement. Manchester United have some ideas about adding a goalkeeper if they need to, but they are hoping they don't need to.
Dean Henderson (G) Manchester United want to keep DH but he wants guarantees with Ajax, Borussia Dortmund and Spurs considering their options. Newcastle may offer an immediate solution. Common sense dictates keep Henderson but I suspect the club think otherwise. Perhaps a loan again.
Sam Johnstone (G) Will not be sold in January but Spurs, Newcastle, West Ham and Southampton may look to offers in the summer.
Jordan Pickford (G) has been recommended to Spurs.
Keiran Trippier (RB) Atletico will sell. They are likely hoping for Spurs, Arsenal or Everton interest as well as Newcastle and Manchester United - but Everton interest may have left with CA.
Nikola Milenkovic (CB) Milan and Spurs have an interest in NM but Milan will need to sell to raise funds and that may be a problem. Something could be done with Spurs and he is their first choice.
Clement Lenglet (CB) Another player Barcelona are keen to move on. Very patchy and inconsistent season. Value is falling away and they will move him on as soon as they can. Spurs see him as an upgrade to what they have and something may be possible as soon as January.
Stefan de Vrij (CB) Inter value the player at €45M and as close to 30 finding a buyer at that price will be difficult. Paratrici and Conte may well provide an option at Spurs but he is not first choice. Something may still be possible for Spurs.
Gleison Bremer (CB) Carlo Ancelotti tried to take him to Napoli and also Everton. He could try again as an affordable option for Real Madrid. Spurs and Milan provide good options as Spurs look to upgrade on the CBs they have and Milan fear losing Alessio Romagnoli as a Free Agent. Again, he is of interest to Inter Milan who fear losing Stefen de Vrij, Milan Skriniar and/ or Alessandro Bastoni in the summer. Previously of interest to Leicester and Liverpool, but both opted for others. Juventus have him on a list of options should they lose de LIgt in the summer but there are certainly a couple ahead of him. Chelsea have a pressing need to add CBs with four out of contract in the summer and could look to him as a cost-effective solution - but a move seems unlikely. Torino will look to a new contract to end thoughts of a move but that has not stopped clubs scouting him as they expect him to be available in the summer as he has so far refused a new contract. Torino do not plan to sell in January. A move to Spurs seems unlikely.
Roger Ibanez (CB) Roma purchased the player on June 30 at the end of his loan with the intent of selling him on - Leicester, Spurs and Porto were keen on taking the player then but nothing happened. Spurs and Roma were still discussing options but Mr Mourinho would like to keep him.
Ruben Neves (DM/ CM) Wolves would look to get as close to €50M as they can should circumstances dictate Neves is sold, but they certainly don't want to sell and have made clear that he has a long-term contract and there have been no approaches at this time. Mr Mourinho is a huge fan and has tried to take him to three different clubs in the past - and he would, I am sure be interested in taking him to Roma but their focus right now is elsewhere. He has always been seen as an option to replace Matic at Manchester United, but they have other priorities to deal with first and preferred options - although Wolves might see an offer. His agent has been actively offering him around and has spoken with Juventus who are looking to offload players but none that I would expect Wolves to be interested in. The Spurs coach would like him as an upgrade to Sissoko (who has now left) and Ndombele but it is likely both would need to leave as they have added another in midfield as well - if Winks were sold an offer is more likely. Arsenal are likely now out of the picture. I would forget any chance of a move to Spurs and I expect him to stay with Wolves for now.
Nahitan Nandez (DM/ CM) Cagliari need to sell to cover themselves financially and will listen to offers over €30M which West Ham and Leeds see as too expensive - although Bielsa remains a fan after he tried to take him to Leeds when he left Boca in 2019. Inter have had several discussions with Cagliari and the player has made it clear that Inter is very much his preferred destination. Arsenal requested information when they were searching for a DM but it was made clear that they would not be considered an option. Paratrici took his Juventus interest to Spurs but has to make room before any bid is made with Oliver Skipp, Moussa Sissoko and Harry Winks being similar players. Napoli have asked about his availability. Roma provide an option as a Diawara replacement after being messed around over the Xhaka move, but they seem to have turned their attention elsewhere. Inter may well win out.
Yves Bissouma (CM/ DM) Brighton would like to continue to resist any approaches although time may be running out now - with the player having made known his desire for the club to consider offers for him although has not formally requested a transfer. He shares a "representative" with Pepe who he spent a season with at Lille and he failed to persuade Arsenal to move for him - and they have now likely moved on. Interest of Spurs may not have departed with Mr Mourinho with them moving on Sissoko and looking for an upgrade on Ndombele - although he will not be first choice. Monaco may have provided an option but I suspect the price will be too high for them and they have a first choice preference. he is not home grown makes him less attractive to most English sides although Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool and Leicester have spoken with his representative. He is not first choice for Manchester City but they could return - Manchester United do not currently have space in the midfield and have a preferred target to replace Pogba and clear DM targets, but don't lose sight of them - Liverpool interest remains but they may not have the money without sales. There is a further complication in that his family is directly involved in all major decisions. Brighton have made clear to one side who enquired that they will be looking to get as close as they can to £50M - although that seems rather unlikely now. Very doubtful anything will happen with Spurs.
Corentin Tolisso (CM) Bayern Munich would be happy to use him in a part exchange deal for either Bastoni or Chiesa but Inter and Juventus will look to trying to include different players in a deal or even look at cash. Atletico could look to offering up Saul. Spurs just might be open to taking him, but it seems unlikely to me. PSG interest has shifted elsewhere. Whilst his agent is offering him around Barcelona have also been approached.
Houssem Aouar (CM) Lyon were frustrated by Arsenal previously not taking a realistic approach to trying to complete the transfer of the player and now they no longer need him. PSG failed to make a suitable offer and have other targets now but if they were to change coach that interest may return. With the impact of the broadcasting losses, clubs in France are facing a difficult time and Lyon may reduce their €60M asking price this summer to ensure a sale as he will be entering the final year of his contract. Juventus interest has drifted as they have a preferred target in mind. Real Madrid have been approached by his agent but have suggested that they would ideally want to offer a player in any deal as they seek a Modric replacement - but they are interested in finding a solution. Lyon want cash so it may be difficult but it is the preferred choice for the player. Barcelona were approached but they will not be in a position to do anything unless Frenkie de Jong is tempted away from the club. Paratici has taken his prior interest at Juventus to Spurs and may look to including Ndombele in a deal - I doubt that will suit Lyon.
Franck Kessié (CM) Efforts are being made to secure a new contract, but the issue is over the wages continues with Milan struggling. Could potentially be sold but I expect agreement to be reached eventually else there will be a lot of interest with Juventus looking to meet his demands. Interest of Mr Mourinho at Spurs and now Roma remains. Spurs also want him as an Ndombele replacement, but the player remains keen to move to Chelsea to eventually replace Kante - but Chelsea turned down the offer from his agent initially although a proposal is on the table that would suit both clubs and the player. Conte may press Spurs to add him. His agent has also approached Manchester United and PSG but both sides would need to move a player on in order to add Kessie - but both are interested. An option may exist with Barcelona considering a deal for Kessie that will involve Umtiti. His agent has also spoken with Liverpool and Leicester who may be interested in agreeing a pre-contract in January but both have preferred targets. Something could be done with Spurs.
Mattias Svanberg (CM) Milan are considering a January offer but Conte would like him at Spurs. Certainly a possibility.
Weston McKennie (CM) Fiorentina would like to take the player and Juventus are looking to add a leading CM and need to raise funds and offload, ideally Ramsey and Arthur - but an option would be to sell Weston McKennie to Spurs or Bayern Munich who have both have shown an interest - although it seems to be waning. A representative of Juventus was in London for talks with Chelsea and was asked to meet with West Ham who have declared an interest. I am not so sure the player would be interested. Juventus will keep him if they cannot raise €30M from a sale.
Nicolo Barella (CM) Don't be surprised of a significant offer from PSG or Spurs. It will be rejected and the player has signed a new contract and will stay. No chance.
Philippe Coutinho (AM/ CM) was available in the summer and was actively being offered around to English, Italian and German sides - but the clubs approached like Spurs, Arsenal, Wolves, Leicester Liverpool and Everton had preferred options or no interest and would only look to him if options dried up and if a loan to buy option were available - but Barcelona ideally wanted cash and still do. Italy may provide an option on loan but that won't suit Barcelona which might well rule out Lazio. Milan would not be a surprise at the right price. If Barcelona cut their losses then they may look to an exchange and might see who clubs like Juventus have available. Kia wanted to get him in to Arsenal ahead of Odegaard or Aouer - but that came to nothing. Kia will knock on Edu's door again in January and try and strike a deal - but with Odegaard signed it is hard to see where he would fit in without Smith Rowe departing. Kia will also try Spurs again, who do have space in their squad but unless they soon turn things around their focus might be elsewhere. A deal involving Ndombele may be suggested. Kia has approached Newcastle but they have no immediate need for a superagent and need to resolve other issues before buying players and it is an unattractive option for Pipco. Liverpool will likely also be approached but I doubt would be interested - but you never know. Raheem Sterling (W) At the right price his sale will help the start of a rebuild. He will be available for perhaps £60-70M. Could be one of the players offered to Spurs for Kane or Barcelona if any part exchange is possible. Arsenal may offer an option as a Pepe replacement. Else he will have to settle for a new contract.
Brennan Johnson (LW) Interest from last summer from Leicester may have gone but the interest of Brentford, Leeds and Brighton remains. Spurs have had scouts watching him all season.
Julian Alvarez (S/ RW/ F) was looked at by Aston Villa but they opted for Buendia. Milan at one point thought that they would lose Alexis Saelemaekers and declared an interest but that has likely passed. Spurs have several versatile forwards they have shown an interest in and see value in Alvarez. Bayer Leverkusen are looking to the player as a potential Bellarabi replacement. There are significant changes coming at Inter Milan in the summer of 2022. Fiorentina see him as an option to replace Vlahovic. Joaquin Correa arrived on loan but they continue to look for options who can provide more width and Alvarez is very much on their list. Do not be surprised by an offer from Bayern Munich. A move to Spurs will be unlikely.
Jonas Hoffman (RW) seems unlikely to be available. I would scratch him but his goalscoring has been impressive this season.
Jarrod Bowen (RW/ LW) I am still not aware of any formal approach to West Ham by Liverpool, but Bowen is a player who would be an ideal replacement for the now departed Shaqiri - and he is HG. Liverpool have a good relationship with his agent and have apparently spoken with him. I don't know if West Ham would be open to selling. Their focus is on other positions. So it makes some sense if West Ham are open to a sale and if the player accepts a bit-part role. Previously Leicester had an approach turned down by West Ham. Spurs want to add competition to Moura but Bowen would want to be a starter. Very unlikely.
Dejan Kulusevski (RW/ CM/ AM) Juventus have told Spurs and Atletico Madrid that he is not for sale but if a decent offer of €30M or more were made that position might change, even as early as January as Juventus look to raise funds. Has been rather inconsistent this season.
Gareth Bale (RW/ F) Expect him to see his contract out in 2022. Real Madrid could look to buy him out of it, but time is running down. Hard to think of a club who would match his salary package outside of the Middle East. A return to Spurs may be an unlikely option - but I doubt it.
Eden Hazard (LW/ RW) Real Madrid have problems one way or another with all of their wingers and there is no guarantee any will be at the club next season. He will be another that Real Madrid listen to offers for and has been offered to several Premier League sides including Spurs - won't happen.
Andrea Belotti (S) of Torino is out of contract in the summer and may provide a solution for Barcelona to add cover. Spurs could also look to him as cover and as a Free Agent he provides a potentially viable addition for Arsenal. Cannot move in January due to injury. I think this is one MIlan may win out - but don't discount Spurs.
Raul de Tomas (F) His agents see the coming summer as the last chance of a major move and have been offering him around - back to Real Madrid (which won't happen) , to Atletico (unlikely) , Leeds and to Spurs (as a Harry Kane back up or replacement option) . Runs hot and cold - most clubs won't want the risk but is scoring well this season.
Gianluca Scamacca (S) Juventus interest is sustained and Paratici may well have taken his prior interest to Spurs as a more viable alternative to Vlahovic if they are to lose Harry Kane. Milan also see him as an option to Vlahovic and if Inter were to lose Martinez then they too could look to him. Perhaps if Fiorentina lose Vlahovic they too could look to him.
Mauro Icardi (S) Efforts will be made to engineer a move for Icardi from PSG to Juventus. Others may also show their hand. Spurs see him as a potential Kane replacement.
Dusan Vlahovic (S) Fiorentina eventually managed to hang on to the player last summer regardless of the interest of Manchester City and Atletico Madrid and now want a new contract. The player's agent has made it clear to the club that the player needs to make a step up and move on. There is significant interest in the player. Milan are keen on the player as an Ibrahimovic replacement - Spurs have the same view in respect of Kane and Antonio Conte is an admirer of the player. Whilst Paratici is keen he may be scared off by the price and could turn to an alternate solution Spurs have in mind. Dortmund see him as a Haaland replacement but a move seems unlikely. Manchester United have had him watched but, like Roma and Arsenal are an unattractive option and can be discounted; whilst the rising cost of the transfer will remove Atletico Madrid from the equation, and they have a far more economically viable solution in mind. Bayern Munich and Juventus offer attractive options which would see him at the top of the game. Juventus have an advantage as the player is keen to remain in Italy - but the club are being pressed to sign another. Bayern Munich are looking for a long-term successor to Robert Lewandowski and know that their first choice is very unlikely to join them as it stands right now. Chelsea are still a striker short and may put a proposal to Fiorentina but it is difficult to see the move happening. Barcelona may become an option if they lose out on Haaland and, critically, if Fiorentina would accept players as part of a deal. I think it unlikely. PSG cannot be discounted as an Icardi replacement. Inter want the future of Lautaro Martinez resolved else they will also look to him. Manchester City should still not be discounted and he I seen as a very clear option to Harry Kane. The player was happy to stay this season but there will be efforts made in January to agree a transfer, perhaps for the summer. The compelling case for him to stay where he is for this season has proven correct with his value increasing and a wider range of clubs interested. The best advice would be to see what happens in Munich and Turin - and don't rule out a bid from Spurs if they lose Kane or Manchester City if they cannot sign Kane or Haaland. Fiorentina will look to €90M or €100M.

Thank you for all that ED . very comprehensive.

04 Jan 2022 11:37:17
Thanks Ed!

11 Jan 2022 12:20:59
Anything on Youri Tielemans ED? I hope we’re still interested.

{Ed002's Note - Not related to Spurs.}

14 Dec 2021 08:24:00
I see Conte has now approved Ali to leave the club.
It sickens me. These boys have the world at their feet. Paid absolute fortunes and still cannot put a shift in.
He’s had 3 mangers to impress and failed miserably with all 3.

Swap Dele for Georginio Wijnaldum possibility maybe. I’d take that.

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Nov 2021 02:34:53
Hi Ed, can you tell us about Spurs' plans for the winter window?

{Ed002's Note - Clubs do not usually plan for January sales so buying in January can be expensive and clubs may not get the players they want. As such it is difficult to say which of the targets might be available in January. I suspect de Vrij would be available "at the right price".}

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Dec 2021 12:26:55
Thanks Ed!

01 Nov 2021 10:53:46
Hi Ed02.
Can I ask which managers Spurs are considering for the vacant position? I have a friend who's a fan of Spurs, and he would like to hear! :)

{Ed002's Note - Paulo Fonseca nearly took the job before and perhaps will offer a very good option but Paratricia is not a fan. As I said before the club have had tentative discussions with Antonio Conte and he is a great coach - but it could go horribly wrong, but I suspect soimething can be done subject to guarantees. A good fit for Paratrici.}

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2021 10:46:04
Ruben Nevez… any interest in him from Spurs Ed?

{Ed002's Note - Ruben Neves (DM/CM) Wolves would look to get as close to €50M as they can should circumstances dictate Neves is sold, but they certainly don't want to sell and have made clear that he has a long-term contract and there have been no approaches at this time. Mr Mourinho is a huge fan and has tried to take him to three different clubs in the past - and he would, I am sure be interested in taking him to Roma but their focus right now iselsewhere. He has always been seen as an option to replace Matic at Manchester United, but they have other priorities to deal with first and preferred options - although they are not working out well so Wolves might see an offer. His agent has been actively offering him around and has spoken with Juventus who are looking to offload players but none that I would expect Wolves to be interested in. The Spurs coach would like him as an upgrade to Sissoko and Ndombele but it is likely both would need to leave as they are looking at another addition in midfield as well. Arsenal have preferred options but his agent is keen to have him move on so they cannot be discounted - although failing to sell Xhaka will likely take them out of the picture.}

You having a laugh ruben neves. He's wolves through and through. And if he does eventually leave it will be to a big club. Also forget adama you had your chance last year but we're to tight to pay up.

28 Aug 2021 01:07:46
Im hearing we have a strong interest in Doku. Also looked at Cherki off Lyon and Hlazek of Prague.

Its hard to know because Paratici starts talks for lots of players at the same time.

Is Pape mata Sarr joining ed002? Many thanks.

{Ed002's Note - Spurs are very keen.}

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Aug 2021 15:20:50
Hi Ed002, it's been revealed that Ndombele will not be taking part in the next spurs game. Lots of rumours they are attempting to sell the player.

May I ask:
1) Why are Spurs so keen to offload Tanguy?

And

2) What fee would they look for and who is interested?

Thanks!

{Ed002's Note - Tanguy Ndombele (CM/DM) He is not want the coach wants and he wants to leave. Offered to Lyon and Sevilla but no takers at the moment. May talk with Lyon again. Will look for £0M I would think.}

Agree0 Disagree0

21 Aug 2021 13:45:10
That's cheap!

21 Aug 2021 18:41:36
Spurs will look to loan him if no one comes close to their valuation, which they wont.

He's lazy and a bad influence on the squad with his clique of Aurier and Sissoko.

21 Aug 2021 19:34:40
I think Juventus are interested btw.

20 Aug 2021 15:20:43
Hi Eds

Any updates on Ndombele. It seems like Spurs want to sell him? Also any insights on futures of Winks and Sissoo are appreciated. Why aren't Spurs selling more?

{Ed002's Note - Moussa Sissoko (DM/CM) Available but no interest being shown by clubs in Europe. MLS does not appear to be an option but Chinese and Middle Eastern clubs may be interested.
Harry Winks (DM/CM) Spurs have told interested sides he is not for sale but if the player were to ask to leave the coach would be supportive of that. Aston Villa moved on from Pape Sarr and made an enquiy about his availability. If West Ham were to sell Rice they might offer an option - as perhaps Manchester United might as a possible Matic replacement. He would provide an interesting option for Everton. Leicester might also be a possible destination if they were to lose Ndidi, but they have a preferred target in mind. Southampton have declared an interest. Likely to stay.
Tanguy Ndombele (CM/DM) Offered to Lyon and Sevilla but no takers at the moment. May talk with Lyon again.}

16 Aug 2021 05:51:15
Hi Eds

Any updates on more incomings? There is talking of Milenkovic and Nandez, any truth there? Also has the Tomiyasu deal stalled? Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - The idea of Sanchez plus cash for Pau Torres has been rejected and the player has no intereest in moving to Spurs. Takehiro Tomiyasu (CB/RB) Spurs have expressed an interest because of his versatility and Atalanta are looking for discussions as an option to Doecki. Spurs value the player rather less than his club so would need to up their offer. Leicester have requested a meeting to discuss a transfer as a matter of urgency. Nikola Milenkovic (CB) Inter Milan, Manchester United, West Ham, Spurs and Juventus have all expressed and interest in Milenkovic who Fiorentina were open to selling for €40M-€50M in the summer but may have to accept half of that. His representatives were pushing him toward Manchester United who already have a lengthy list of targets and their prior interest could return - he was an alternative to Maguire. Borussia Dortmund may offer an option at the right price as they value him much lower with his contract running out in 2022. West Ham have held talks but Fiorentina are not convinced they are committed. Spurs have held a meeting with his representatives to discuss the player. Juventus provide an option but the player will get less game time.

Agree1 Disagree0

17 Aug 2021 17:49:00
Thanks for the great detail on Milenkovic Ed002. Any truth in Nandez rumors? Fab Romano seems to have mentioned Cagliari want to sell the player. Also any potential for Khvicha Kvaratskheliato be moving this summer? Any Spurs interest? Cheers.

{Ed002's Note - Nahitan Nandez (DM/CM) Cagliari need to sell to cover themselves financially and will listen to offers over €30M which West Ham and Leeds see as too expensive - although Bielsa remains a fan after he tried to take him to Leeds when he left Boca in 2019. Inter have had several discussions with Cagliari and the player has made it clear that Inter is very much his preferred destination. Arsenal requested information when they were searching for a DM but it was made clear that they would not be considered an option. Paratrici took his Juventus interest to Spurs but has to make room before any bid is made with Oliver Skipp, Moussa Sissoko and Harry Winks being similar players. Roma provide an option as a Diawara replacement after being messed around over the Xhaka move, but they seem to have turned their attention elsewhere.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (LW) Spurs, Torino, Borussia Dortmund and Lokomotiv Moscow have spoken with Rubin Kazan who are telling clubs they not looking to sell at this time in order to get a premium. Previously the player has been watched by Bayern Munich and his agent is hawking him around the Premier League clubs including Everton with, according to him, Leeds and Wolves showing some interest in addition to Spurs. CA was open to the idea of replacing Bolasie and Bernard with him but it is not going to happen now he has left. Borussia Dortmund have him down the list of Sancho replacements but he is a lot less versatile and very much a LW.}

19 Aug 2021 08:36:14
Before you get your hopes up on signing traore just remember you won't be getting him cheap. 2) I don't believe traore wants to move to London. 3) he is playing better football under Bruno lage than he ever did with that retard nuno. As you will see Sunday when we beat you, and all you will have to offer is defend and hit us on the counter attack.

23 Aug 2021 16:32:15
3 points - enough said…!

01 Aug 2021 14:20:11
H Eds,

Any news on who’s looking at Sanchez, Dier, Winks, Sissoko, and Aurier,

{Ed002's Note - Davinson Sanchez (CB) is wanted by Sevilla. Harry Winks (DM/CM) Spurs have told interested sides he is not for sale but if the player were to ask to leave the coach would be supportive of that. Aston Villa moved on from Pape Sarr and made an enquiy about his availability. If West Ham were to sell Rice they might offer an option - as perhaps Manchester United might as a possible Matic replacement. He would provide an interesting option for Everton. Leicester might also be a possible destination if they were to lose Ndidi, but they have a preferred target in mind. Southampton have declared an interest. Moussa Sissoko (DM/CM) Available but no interest being shown by clubs in Europe. MLS does not appear to be an option but Chinese and Middle Eastern clubs may be interested. Serge Aurier (RB) Was a fall back option for PSG - number 4 on their list but that can be scratched. Cheap option for Milan - but he will need to be very cheap - they will walk if Spurs want to play hard ball - I would scratch it as he would be no more than cover. I am not aware of any interest in Dier (DM).

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Aug 2021 17:06:21
Thanks Ed

No interest in Dier - That sounds about right
Levy probably has 60m price tag on him.

06 Aug 2021 19:29:48
Hi Ed, anything to share more on the incoming? There are talks about Tomiyasu, would that be something that is happening? Also, anything on Damsgaard, or other midfielders we may be looking to sign? Much appreciated.

{Ed002's Note - Mikkel Damsgaard (LW/AM) Spurs asked after a price for the player at the behest of Mr Mourinho who may have taken his interest on to Roma. Now Spurs have lost the plot rather and have made a particularly low offer. Real Madrid consider him an option at the right price if they sell Isco. Sampdoria saying Southampton and Leeds have both enquired about the availability of the player who only joined last summer. Juventus see him as a potential addition. They have told Milan that they are not open to being given their "off cuts" in exchange and want a huge cash deal - but Milan would need to sell Leao to bring him in - and they also need the money to complete the Tonali deal. Sampdoria are reluctant to sell but I suspect more clubs will be showing an interest.
Takehiro Tomiyasu (CB/RB) Spurs have expressed an interest because of his versatility and Atalanta are looking for discussions as an option to Doecki. Spurs value the player rather less than his club so work to do with others interested.}

07 Aug 2021 17:49:30
Thanks Ed, any truth to Dusan Vlahovic rumors? Are Spurs only looking to sign a striker only if Kane leaves, or would want to sign one otherwise too? Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - Dusan Vlahovic (S) Milan see the player as an Ibrahimovic back up and possible replacement - Spurs have the same view in respect of Kane - and Dortmund do in respect of Haaland. Roma, Juventus and Atletico Madrid offer options which would see him as a starter. Inter want the future of Lautaro Martinez and Lukaku resolved else they will also look to him and Zapata. Manchester United have had him watched. Manchester City approached Fiorentina and were told that the asking price will be set above €50M which came as a surprise and it would need to be a single cash payment but I rather doubt that would tempt them to sell now. An ex-player has recommended to player to the club as a lower cost solution to Haaland. I am not aware of any approach by Liverpool to Fiorentina but Spurs have already jumped the gun if it looks like Kane is leaving. Player wants to stay another year and Fiorentina want a lengthy contract extension. I would think he will stay another year. There is a compelling case for him to stay where he is for at least another year and perhaps sees what happens in Munich.}

08 Aug 2021 09:57:46
Thanks Ed, that sounds complicated. Any insight into who Spurs are looking at as a Kane replacement, if not Vlahovic? Also any truth to rumors around City offering Bernardo Silva or Jesus as part of offer for Kane? Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - They want Vlahovic but have looked at other more versatile forwards like Marcus Thuram and Joaquin Correa, as well as traditional strikers in Sasa Kalajdzic, Alassane Plea and Matthew Hoppe.}

08 Aug 2021 12:34:05
You are awesome Ed002, do you see Spurs signing any of them this window? The media have only reported interest in Hoppe.

Also, Times and Gary Jacob are reporting that Spurs have agreed a fee with Inter for Lautaro Martinez, any truth there? It is completely out of the blue! Cheers.

{Ed002's Note - I should have included Lautaro Martinez on the list. Spurs have certainly made an enquiry but I discounted it as the player would also want Champions League football - so he will need persuading. Inter had been trying to avoid selling him but they must raise funds to buy and they are looking to add Zapata to replace Lukaku and Joaquin Correa if Martinez leaves. Giacomo Raspadori is another an option. Inter may have been pushed in to a corner with offers from two sides being rejected for the impressive Martin Satriano.}

Tottenham's pursuit of a new manager is now said to be down a two-horse race between Nuno Espirito Santo and Graham Potter

If Levy names either one of these as our new manager. When things don’t work out. Levy should be sacked.
I cannot believe we aren’t going back in for Conte. Levy needs to start listening to people who understand football.

As for the new director of football. I don’t see the point. As Levy has to approve everything anyway. And let’s face it, he’s made some serious f**k ups of late.

Agree0 Disagree0

28 Jun 2021 11:28:45
At the rate supposed candidates are falling by the wayside I’m beginning to expect The Raver to reappear and be appointed as the new manager.

30 Jun 2021 18:28:47
I’m hoping he’s waiting to appoint Mancini after the Euro’s

I thought The Raver claimed he looked like Lamela?

Nope you have got our castoff manager nuno. So enjoy the boring stale football you will watch and listen to the garbage he spouts after every game. By xmas you will be singing nuno out. Why? Yes he done good at wolves, but that's it. We are wolves, when did we last do any good, any half decent manager could have done the same.

Demon, so what happened to the Managers before him?

I seem to remember him getting Valencia to play very attacking, so maybe he just adapts to the squad.

Nuno gets appointed and The Raver reappears . I’m telling you, he doesn’t look anything like Lamela.

Could you please give a list of clubs that are interested in Harry Kane Ed? And how likely do you think it is that he'll move this summer?

Thanks a lot.

{Ed002's Note - Harry Kane (S) If the player decides he wants a step up in his career then Manchester United might be willing to meet any demands that Spurs have. As for Manchester City and Real Madrid, he would be a fallback position and not first choice but I can see Manchester City looking to sign him. I very much doubt he will move this summer.}

Hey Eds,

Any news on manager targets for Spurs?

{Ed002's Note - Spurs had already taken advice over managerial options and right now it looks something like this as far as I know:
Julian Nagelsmann (C) - preferred choice but expensive and moving elsewhere.
Brendan Rodgers (C) – probably first reserve Nagelsmann who is no longer an option - but would he be allowed a free hand? Regardless, seen as a good solution but I would say very unlikely.
Erik ten Hag (C) An excellent coach but needs the freedom to do what he wants - and that may not be possible at Spurs.
Marcelino (C) would be a good option but it is likely not an ideal move for him.
Jurgen Klinsmann (C) - advisor says no but someone senior the club has a different view.
Antonio Conte (C) I would not be surprised to see an approach but he will need a free hand. Will be available.
Simone Inzaghi (C) Wildcard
Roberto Martinez (S) a cheap option that I understand the advisor was not asked about.
Max Allegri (C) - advisor says no.
Nuno Espirito Santo (C) Jorge Mendes will offer him up. Don't be surprised by at least some discussion.
Gareth Southgate (C) Probably not available until after the World Cup but Spurs could potentially decide to wait a year.}

Hey Ed2
There are news reports of Poch coming back to Spurs. Do you think it might happen? If so, why would be leave PSG for Spurs?
Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - There has been direct intervention by the owner who cost a lot and they would have to compensate for an illegal approach. Seems doubtful that RSG would let him go easily - and there is interest in him from elsewhere.}

Hi Ed, are we any closer to a resolution in the manager chase?

{Ed002's Note - A day closer than yesterday.}
