This guy is a WUM I believe. He said AVB was house-hunting in London when he was reportedly still in Fiji on vacation.
Also, new ITK suggests that RM is trying to offload Kaka before getting Modric and there are two deals in place regarding Modric. One is just cash. The other is cash + Sahin. You can read more about it here.
Thought wages were sorted with Adeabyor a while back and that the stumbling block was negotiating a fee with City?
people jumping gun as usual.. wages always issue with spurs when it comes to big name players. so annoying. i see scatter gun approach coming by spurs in few weeks. if ade rejects us we are in serious trouble with regards strikers

The information we've had is that wages were OK.
There are other moving parts here. So calm down before you get all negative. (Again). It's also only mid-July and half of our first team haven't even returned to training.
I don't doubt we have options but I don't necessarily want us embarking on a wild goose chase which I can envisage with Leandro and being left with a horrifying strike force of Defoe and Kane!
I will caveat this by saying I really don't believe this will be the outcome post 1st September but I don't want a repeat of last season with question marks hanging over major areas of our side and lose ground straight from the get go.
And so it begins..............

what are these moving parts????? haha
dont care what u say how negative again i supposedly am.. this is about money and money only to why its not done. levy palying hardball and adebayor not budging either. if its done its done. im more concerned on who else we have as targets cos to me that spurs squad is still littered with shite.
Presumably just agent talk bigging up his player but we have been linked in the past. Could this be everyone's favourite Aston Villa supporting, Spurs ITK football writer big moment...?!

Di Frisco (agent Tasci, Stuttgart): "Besides Milan, also Barcelona and especially City and Tottenham are interested in Serdar." [milannews]
You've quite clearly never run a business. And to be honest, you don't actually know what it's about. At all. Not saying that I do, but when you say "money", it's not quite as simple as that. Because, quite frankly, if you don't have it, you can't spend it or commit to spend it. Yes Mr Ridsdale, you can't commit to it without it eventually coming in.
Moving parts? There are plenty of rumours in relation to a potential investment, a potential sale of a star player for £30m+ (Modric) to factor in. If one or more of those don't come off, is paying his wage and transfer fee instalments financially viable? In the same way that you only buy a house once you know you've got mortgage approval. You don't say "yeah I'll pay XXX" and then go to the bank and ask for that do you? No. You don't.
We're getting way off track here.
Any interesting Spurs gossip from around the place?
if spurs were offering adebayor wages close to what he wants or what his team would find acceptable then this deal would be done and he would have been playing tonight.
if we were clever we would and should have already got both striker and his replacement in already. persoanlly thought offering inter a wheelbarrow of money for leandro and oscar way back in may that would have been paid off and guarenteed by madrid buying modric was a no brainer but for some reason we act the maggot./quote]

I guess if Gallas foillows King out the door then we would be rather short on the CB front with Dawson, Kaboul, Vertonghen and Caulker.I'm sure Tasci's agent has the right of it. Another CB is just what we need.
