Would need to get rid 3 players to not have someone missout on the UCL squad. 2 for the Prem.

Well if Gazzaniga doesn't leave I think we'd just leave him out and have a youth keeper as third choice for the EL. My guess is that we'll hold on to Aurier. Foyth and PG will leave whether on loan or permanently and Gedson might be left out of the EL squad.

Sissoko is the guy we really need to shift though. 31, no great use apart from as a very basic squad player and non HG. Even Will Hughes might become an interesting option to replace him. We were linked with him earlier in the window I think.

Except under 21's don't count in the PL. Gedson and Vinicius are exempt as both were born after 1st Jan 1999 (anyone else feeling old?)

I thought someone said Vinicius was 25?

 

[Majick]

Is it not an issue having Bale, Gedson & Vincius on loan?

No. We can have multiple players on loan - the limit mainly applies to players signed domestically, and Bale, Gedson and Vinicius' parent clubs are all foreign clubs.

I'm not sure if the limit on signing more than two players on loan per window applies to all loan signings, but even if it does Gedson signed in January, so we're still fine.

Vinícius is 25?

I thought someone said Vinicius was 25?

Edited - I had the other one in mind

 

[RichieS]

Was it @Trix that said Benfica held the key to the rest of our window? Vinicius plus a failed attempt for Dias before moving on to Skriniar?

 

[rossdapep]

Ok, tv on.

All the stations seem to be saying it's on. Season loan with option to buy €45m

Carlos Vinícius a caminho do Tottenham por empréstimo | MAISFUTEBOL

Opção de compra fixada em 45 milhões de euros. Acordo está alinhavado mas não está fechado.

Carlos Vinícius on his way to Tottenham on loan

Call option set at 45 million euros. Agreement is tacked but not closed.

Carlos Vinícius is close to Tottenham on loan from Benfica , confirmed Maisfutebol .

On the table is a one-year loan with a call option set at 45 million euros.

The agreement is not yet closed, but at this time it is tacked and negotiations are underway to finalize the details that separate the 2019/20 League's best scorer from being José Mourinho's reinforcement in the Spurs.

It is recalled that recently, at the press conference after Benfica's victory over Moreirense, Jorge Jesus admitted the possibility of Vinícius leaving the team red.

The Tottenham should be more than likely fate of 25 - year - old than came to light in time past in exchange for 17 million euros.

Job done, 5 days to sort Skriniar. This transfer malarkey is a doddle.

 

[oohaahedgar]

It’s done , CV obviously has a good one.

Milik, si allontana il Tottenham: gli Spurs puntano tutto su Vinicius

Milik's future remains to be written. The Pole, who had entered Tottenham's goal list , sees England further and further away. The Spurs have indeed decided to stake everything on Vinicius of Benfica (on loan with the option to 36 million pounds).

It's so silly that Dier's not homegrown. The whole rule is there to make sure teams have english players in their squads. ?

Have you had a makeover?

Inspired by the Twitter profiles of pompous Athletic journos, I hoped that going b&w would ensure that people on SC finally take me seriously.

Hasn’t worked tbh.

€45m is a pretty steep fee for Carlos Vinicius. I imagine that would only be if certain bonuses are met like with Gedson

 

[Joely]

Never watched him play but from the clips floating about looks like has the ability to occupy defenders with his physicality and can bring others into the game. Looks good in the air and also seems to have decent mobility for a big man. Yes, probably not going to cause defences major problems with pace but doesn't look a complete slouch either. Seems to be in the right place at the right time a lot of the time and looks like he can really crack them with that left foot. Don't know just how dependant he is on his left foot though.

Interesting to know what his off the ball work is like as I think that is probably going to be key as to how he does over here. Both in terms of movement and the ability to press effectively from the top. Liverpool were linked to him in January and Klopp is very particular about the striker in his system having the ability to press effectively so if there was any truth in those links, maybe a good sign he is handy when it comes to pressing.

All in all, think the fact it is a loan with an option to purchase makes this a potentially very astute bit of business.

Ally Gold and Di Marzio are reporting that it's £36m (€40m), the extra €5m is probably in bonuses as you say.

Probably your affiliation with curtains thats holding you back.

Apparently it's just an option too, full steam ahead for Skriniar if that's the case.

 

[St José Dominguez]

Be stupidly good deal for us. We get Portuguese leagues top scorer on loan, if he’s great we buy him next summer if not we just get someone else. He fits the mould of striker Jose wants much better than others. As well as scoring goals he likes to bring others into positions of threat. This window has been pretty damn amazing, hope this one happens.
