No 24 hours are same when it comes to Spurs and transfer targets. When a deal looks sewn up, then it could be furthest from it.
The Timo Werner deal is on, and a medical is expected today, for a 6 months long, with a view to a permenent move if this works out for player and club.
The permanent deal fee of just £15.5million in the summer.
Bargain price if things work out.
In the absence of Sonny, Werner could be in line for his Tottenham debut at Manchester United, who were also chasing his signature, on January 14.
Werner was by no means a complete disaster at Chelsea, notching 23 goals in 89 appearances for Chelsea while also adding a number of assists.
His ability to play out wide or through the middle is also a bonus for Postecoglou, and it was the decisive reason for Ange wanting the player.
Werner’s arrival will almost certainly end the our chase for forward Jota.
Spurs are still in talks with Genoa for a CB. Spurs's need for a CB has become more urgent with the news that Davies has done his hamstring against Burnely.
Spurs are not the only one to chase Dragusin. Napoli have put an offer to Genoa, who were negotating with Spurs the fee up until 2 days ago and both clubs were trying to bridge a gap aprox £7m in their valuations.
However, Napoli may have stolen a march with their proposals. They ave offered a player in exchange plus a fee to Genoa.
The player is Zanoli who was actually on Genoa's wishlist.
This has made Genoa more interested in Napoli deal no doubt, but Dragusin has already verbally agreed personal terms with Spurs and is more keen on playing in the PL.
All at sea with this deal.
Another player readied up by Spurs, in case Dragusin deal collapses is a deal for Ko Itakura.
Itakura, aged 26, has been a key CB for Borussin Gladbach's defence.
the Japan international ranks among the top 12% of central defenders across Europe's top five leagues over the past year for pass completion, the top 15% for goals scored and the top 7% for blocks per 90.
On Conor Gallagher, Spurs have been put off by the fee hike by Chelsea. Though, Tod Boehly is still keen on balancing FFP and has not ruled out some sort of review of the proposal from Spurs, which was for the old fee of £40m approx.
The player does not want to move accross the city though.
Deal is in balance now

No I have never claimed to have sources like you 🤣.
The only people I take notice of are Romano, POK and journos from the Times or Telegraph, when it comes to transfer news. When we buy foreigners, there are few journos from abroad who often have a good rep are reliable.
But you read the same articles I do, then pass them off are you're own sources! Trying to make out you are some two bit sky sports news reporter 🤣.

I do know people who are accredited journos
Like who? Or do you mean you recognise their names at the bottom of an article?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Just ignore this bell
Appreciate any info you may have. I enjoy reading any insight into how the club is run. Especially any that indicate change to the incompetence that levy has led over the years. Hope he really has backed away from the football side now.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Luka is a weirdo for me
I don't mind him at all
YEs, Spurs under Langer and the Don, started to operate very differently. When we used to bid for a player, everything would halt to a ground but now now. We seem to see them through more and the deals are well targeted by the manager. WIn/Win
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not sure you can necessarily accuse Levy of incompetence, he has managed the finances of the club brilliantly and also delivered the best stadium in Europe.
He is a hard nosed business man and obviously difficult to deal with. Over the last two years he has appointed people like Paratici who has brought us some excellent current players like Bentancur, Udogie & Vicario. He is still involved in a limited capacity and with the new structure in place the future is good for us.

Not buying another cb in the summer has backed us into a corner and meant we will now have to pay a hiked rate to get a deal done.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Everytime a English club wants player from abroad the price is always hiked up. See vvD. He wasn't cheap considering his experience at the time.
More BS from you.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Geography not your strong point?
Do you think Southampton were complaining when they moved him on for a good multiplier?
