Why don't we just go in for Sanches if we can't pull off the deal for Traore?
Here’s an idea. Let’s sign Renato ourselves. And let’s hijack Edouard. 20M spent. CM and striker solved.
I think we need a CM like him moreso than a creative CM. We have Dele, GLC and Ndombele for the more creative role and we can discuss all day whether they are good enough but none of them look likely to move, so we won't be getting a creative CM in my view. We still need somebody to support Hojbjerg and Skippy though.He wouldn't really solve our issue with creativity. A good player though.
Yes to first bit, no to second part! I don't think Edouard is worth 20 million or good enough.Here’s an idea. Let’s sign Renato ourselves. And let’s hijack Edouard. 20M spent. CM and striker solved.

Dele - PEH - Sanches would be first XI for me and an upgrade, assuming Sanches can adapt to the premier leagueDele isn't creative enough, GLC I'm not sure and Ndombele should be nowhere near our first eleven despite his talent. Sanches wouldn't improve our first XI, a creative midfielder to replace Dele would however.
Apologies if already posted but Valencia are being linked with Helder Costa who is represented by Mendes.
He could be a direct replacement for Guedes who is also a Mendes client and is linked with Wolves.
That could pave the way for Traore to join Spurs.
Could all be coincidence and speculation but it does seem to line up with some of the previous info we have had about Mendes brokering the Traore deal.
I'm not a massive Moura fan either, and I'm also able to acknowledge the fact that Traore’s shooting/finishing can be frustrating (his crossing is NOT as bad as many suggest. He puts the ball into dangerous areas that Wolves players fail to put away).
But I can't agree that Moura is twice the footballer that Traore is.
Both players can be frustrating, but Traore does what he does EVERY single game.
Whereas nearly all of us sit on here saying we wish Moura would do what he's capable of every game.
Onions!

This.The problem with Traore's end product isn't how bad it is, it's no worse than three quarters of the premier League, it's that it's out of sync with his other qualities. He can carry the ball from his box to the other box beating a bunch of opposition players on the way as well as any player in the league and his ability to come away from a gang of three or four defenders with the ball still at his feet is second to none not to mention the fact that nobody ever bullies him.
