100% this. Last time the clubs did a transfer between each other was Gus Poyet in 2001.
It could be different with Levy and Abramovich away from direct negotiations. Likely to be Paratici and Boehly now.

I don't think the Chelsea fans would care too much anyway if selling Ziyech to us meant they could improve the squad elsewhere. I think most of us would have taken selling Bergwijn or Reguilon to Arsenal or Chelsea so we could buy a Bastoni say.

He's a good player, perfect rotation for us and the type of quality we should be aiming for but he's nowhere near Kulusevski's level.
That's not my point... it's how we sell the move from Chelsea to Tottenham to him :) ... first and foremost I bet he wants to play again... he's clearly not happy with his role at Chelsea... that's also back up/rotation player.

So he has to see us as a great opportunity. Especially coming from Chelsea.

Good signing if we can get him for good money. I think he offers enough to rotate in a larger group of 6 forwards.

He'd play loads this season. Look at our fixture list...

The only problem I see with this is someone would have to miss out on the CL. Considering we have 3 RWBs I think it would have to be Matt Doherty, as Spence is homegrown. That could well explain a move for Dan James actually, either replacing Lucas or Doherty in the squad which allows us to bring in Ziyech too. But is James even CL HG being Welsh? Not sure!

No he is not HG in the CL.

I believe we have mum or Nan ITK as someone on SC has connections to Dan James’s family, and they confirmed he was happy at Leeds and not looking to move. It’s in one of the random threads somewhere.
Surely he’d swap bench at Leeds for bench with us? Hope he doesn’t.. but getting chinned off by Dan James would be even more embarrassing than signing him

Certainly a cut above Adama and James in terms of quality on the ball.
