I am new to Spurs Community. I won’t go into detail about who I am etc, as I have declared all that information to the websites moderators and owners, who have gave me assurances that my source will not be leaked. I am looking to go into the media and am publishing information on numerous clubs supporter websites, in the hope that, after my information is verified when dealings are completed, it may open a few doors. Tottenham is not the main club my source gets information on but does have links. I have also been involved in the football bubble to a lesser degree. I will not be making daily comments because that’s not how it works; it does not change as often as some people would lead you to believe.

So what information do I have on spurs?

• · Scott Parker WAS NOT a target until Sandro Injury, but interest in him remains only very small.
• · In fact scouts were out in Denmark to watch Jack Rodwell; Liverpool had 2 bids rejected a while back even after they met Everton asking price but Everton will not sell to Liverpool. That might come back to haunt them. Spurs had interest but Harry wants success now. Could still be target in this window.
• · Spurs are in the “HUNT” for a Schalke striker for 25 million Euros. Also interested in his Peruvian team mate who Schalke are less likely to want to sell but for 20 million Euros they will certainly take notice. This will be spurs biggest deal of the window if it can be pulled off.
• · Daniel Levy likes deadline day deals and is keeping tabs on Barcelona creative midfielder Afellay, IF Fabregas and Sanchez sign. Loan deal is very possible and this could be Levy’s rabbit out of hat signing.
• · Pavlyuchenko is now somehow untouchable at spurs. He will sign a new deal. Is very much settled and is friends with the main core in the dressing room. Shame the same thing can not be said about Modric.
• · Jermaine Defoe; the management are unsure; they personally can’t believe he will have another season as bad as last. Harry Redknapp was not that upset with the comments he made about Europa League; just media hype.
• · No interest in Bentley at the minute and Tottenham very frustrated. They will be lucky to get back half of what they paid but might be worth it his wages on the books.
• · Jermaine Jenas and Alan Hutton to Aston Villa and watch out they may be after Crouch too.
• · Daniel Levy is trying to sort out some sort of deal with Rangers new owner. This deal was offered to them under the old owners, who refused. They did not trust Daniel Levy. The deal could see players move on loan and there will definitely be a friendly played each season.

That is all I have on Tottenham for the present time, however, after having read some of the other transfer information from other bloggers; I am going to email my source to verify if there could be any truth in them.


On a final note watch out for PSG and Malaga. It has been reported widely in the press about the new found fortune at PSG but Malaga are also very wealthy and I have been told they are both very close to splashing a fortune. Tottenham should be seen as good hunting ground.
