Spurs Transfer Rumours

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.

21 Aug 2021 16:51:14
Is Pape mata Sarr joining ed002? Many thanks.

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

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.}

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.

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.

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.}

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).

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.

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
😂😂😂 be nice though.

30 Jun 2021 22:03:41
I thought The Raver claimed he looked like Lamela?

01 Jul 2021 08:19:09
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.

04 Jul 2021 18:17:12
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.

11 Jul 2021 19:51:06
Nuno gets appointed and The Raver reappears . I’m telling you, he doesn’t look anything like Lamela.

15 Jun 2021 14:21:23
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.}

25 May 2021 19:48:56
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.}

27 May 2021 10:48:32
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.}

10 Jun 2021 02:46:45
Hi Ed, are we any closer to a resolution in the manager chase?

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

06 May 2021 17:26:51
Mouriho, is looking to take Lamela and Moura to Roma.

Please, please.

No wonder he got sacked.

10 May 2021 20:56:27
Hopefully he'll take Sissoko, Aurier, Davis, Sanchez, Dier, and Doherty aswell.

30 Apr 2021 10:57:55
Hi Ed002, thought I'd venture over here and ask the question, apologies again for blindly missing the page! With Harry Kane again mentioning he is after trophies etc, is there a chance he will be leaving Spurs? He is currently in the peak years of his career so wondered if there had been any discussions with any other parties, either in the UK or abroad? Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - There is always the chance he could look to move on but he has a long contract and Spurs would look for a very high fee if they decided to sell. There have certainly not been discussions with other clubs.}

30 Apr 2021 13:51:33
Thanks Ed.

15 Apr 2021 10:25:33
Any talk on the safety of Mourinhos job. Seems some serious unrest, not just with the fans but also in the squad right now. I'd expect him to see out the season, but it's been a hard watch (not that that comes as a surprise)

{Ed002's Note - I don't want to get in to the issue too much but Spurs have taken advice from a third-party over managerial options in the future. It does not mean anything will happen immediately.}

26 Jan 2021 18:20:22
I see the PSG Deli Ali deal is not with an option to buy.

I wonder if that’s because Levy wants to see how Jose finishes this season.

11 Jan 2021 16:57:27
Wolves fan here. Pop over here when we play Spurs. Come back The Raver the site needs you. Crowdfund for The Raver.

06 Jan 2021 20:44:57
Spurs have made a bid for Milenkovic of Fiorentina.
