Hugo Lloris – never in doubt, should be first through the door; there were only 2 clubs ever interested in him from day one. The other being AC Milan. The player did not want to go to Italy and Arsenal never made contact with his club. This info didn’t come from Tottenham source.
Like I said yesterday talking to lots of players and lots of things that complicate certain deals.
Moutinho is still number one choice and I expect a final day take it or leave it offer. This will delay other potential deals.
There are 5 clubs talking to Dembele. Three in England (including Spurs), one in France and one in Italy. Timing is the key because Martin Jol will not sell unless it’s sorted out soon.
M’Vila; simple battle of the North London clubs. Tottenham have offered more money. Two months ago if you’d have asked me I’d have said he is nailed on to be an Arsenal player. Again it will all depend on timing but now personal opinion is you have got it.
Willian; I could have and should have told you yesterday Levy’s opening offer but to be fair it was actually slightly lower than what I was told. Completely miles out on valuation and can tell you how baffled, annoyed and surprised the Shaktar board were. The player is in England but that means nothing. Talks on going but just got a feeling that this is the sort of deal where another club could come in quick and hijack the player.
Afellay; I can tell you Harry wanted him. I’ve not heard of any discussions this time round. But if it’s a loan deal like discussed last time it could be done quick.
Bojan; deal very complicated and I don’t know where he ranks but Tottenham made what can be described as polite enquiries last week.
To reiterate what I’ve said before Tottenham have been asked to be informed of any bids for Redmond. AVB is a fan.
I’m also led to believe that Tottenham are in talks with Benfica. The problem is I genuinely don’t know who about.
There are lots of clubs interested in your players including one club I know personally; I’come back later to tell what I know.
