Sounds more like they don’t like the price.

There’s no way they get this deep into the recruitment process for someone to go “can someone go check his transfermarkt page and see how old he is?”

They wouldn’t have bothered scouting him and discussing things with his agent if that were the case. Age is basically the first thing you learn about a player other than their name.

They probably discovered this thread finally.

Or Paolo reached out to Napoli personally to convince them not to buy him so he wouldn’t leave Spurs.

Aurier said that he wants to stay, he will probably refuse most offers and he's probaby happy with being just a rotation option. Trips will want to start somewhere probably.

Hey Napoli, Trippier for £10m to Spurs and I’ll personally drive him to you for some pizza a bottle of Coke so you can save on the flight. Deal?

My plan would be to sell Aurier for as much as we can get, but def get on and sell him rather than haggle all Summer.

Then step two, use Trippier as part exchange with the Aurier money (plus a bit?) to get AWB.

Palace obviously won't want to sell, but Trippier would be a decent enough replacement for him.

Trippier wouldn’t go Palace

Plan blown!!! This isn't as easy as footie manager makes it seem!

Thank for the reply Herc, good to see you call by.

Edit, just sell both and use the money for AWB ;-)

France Football linking Aurier to Monaco for £15m plus bonuses. Would we let both go?

Would give us a decent £40m kitty for a proper RB like Wan Bissaka, Semedo or Atal.

KWP and Foyth as cover (especially if Toby stays another year).

Apologies to @DONOS10 missed your post
