If this happens - surely one of 3 things have happened 1. we have reduced our interest as someone is available elsewhere. 2. the player doesnt think he will get sufficient playing time at Spurs. 3. his club have balked at our demands to sign him in January.

I doubt very much this is down to wages or fee. Brentford are clearly not as big as a pull as Spurs.

Short sighted on our behalf if the deal breaker is actually wanting him now over waiting until the summer
Have no insight but would be very surprising if that's the case.

We are interested in him for the long term, and if Nusa doesn't come then we won't sign another LW this window IMO.

These are the sensible thoughts.

Dissapointed, but €30m for an 18 year old is a lot when you are buying potential. How many have failed to make it from that level.
The PL is a massive step up from the Belgian league. They must have thought long and hard before walking away from this one.

Wow what a strange one. Massive move for Brentford to be fair. Maybe he’s betting on himself with release clauses.

If we haven’t got him it’s because we didn’t want him enough. Said before was not blown away with the clips I saw which are supposed to be the pinnacle of what the player has achieved so far. May be we will be wrong but to be honest after watching what Gil was supposed to offer, same with Sessegnon, NDombele et al I’m not going to cry about it.

Weren't we told he was a big target for Ange? If that's the case then it is poor if we missed out on a €30m target.

Hope WLBs news that he can't share yet is something very positive
