Gil?
Oh sorry I missed that bit
“Italian journalist Niccolò Ceccarini, writing in his column for TuttoMercatoWeb, also discuss Antonio Contes side wanting the 23-year-old this summer. He claims the Serie A side must raise around €60m to improve their economic conditions.”
I really don't think there's much of interest there. They won't sell/they wouldn't come to us Gavi, Pedri, De Jong, Araujo, Fati... who else do they have we would want?
I wouldn't mind Memphis Depay as an attacking option. Started well and was top scorer but Xavi doesn't seem to fancy him.
Gavi still hasn’t renewed his contract yet and is getting frustrated by negotiations with Barca. He also has a 50 mil release clause. He probably doesn’t want to leave but he might. De Jong also I could see leaving purely because he’s one of the players that would command the largest fee. Not that we would have a chance at getting them, but I would love us to at least try for them.
I think it’s exactly what we would do if they decided he was the one. Paratici isn’t going to roll over for Man Utd just because they are willing to spend. He’s just been handed 150m on top of other player sales and anything else we likely would have spent. He likes a free transfer and has already brought in Forster and Perisic. Eriksen could follow. But then he is still left with all that money and I’m not sure how most spurs fans would feel if there was an injection and we didn’t actually go ahead and actually compete for the big signings.
Dream CM signing for me. Would be a phenomenal addition. Obviously very very unlikely even if we were interested and he was available. But one can hope.
One thing that may be in our favour, should we choose to pursue him, is that we've been following him for some time.
If it's a release clause, why not... Smack the money on the table. Ideally with some, and if you don't take this, we but your top priorities.. Loads a money style..
And, would be a monumental signing....
