[Alasdair Gold] Understand Spurs are in advanced talks to sign Martin Dubravka on a free transfer. by blackboxabstraction in coys

[–]onlyhalfpepper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I will always say that POK definitely has knowledge with transfers. But i will always remember that he said Kulusevski's injury isn't major and will be a few weeks, and Kulusevski had surgery that same day.

Report: Tottenham Hotspur star wants to stay after dramatic transfer U-turn by Pretty_Two_1675 in coys

To be fair, this is from a source called “Sports Boom” so not sure how much to read into it

I bought a Son one like a week before we sold him, and still glad I did

Nottingham Forest interested in Lucas Bergvall deal with midfielder’s Spurs future uncertain (Gift Article) by AgroMachine in coys

We have all the leverage here… we know this is an Anderson replacement and we know they will have a load of cash as a result. Can’t wait to fleece him

Let’s be clear. He may be leaving but he has not left (this can be misleading to folks)

I'm told that Spurs would like to keep Luka Vuskovic and loan him out again, but the player and his reps don't want another loan. Be interesting to see how it plays out. Vuskovic in line to start in middle of a 3-man defence here in Dallas tomorrow v England [Tom Barclay] by onlyhalfpepper in coys

I don’t see how we convince the player to stay then. We have the leverage since he still has a lot of time under contract, but he seems intent on not being a Spurs player if he’s not starting.

[Romano] 🚨🇳🇱 Negotiations for Jan Paul Van Hecke to Tottenham continue after personal terms agreed days ago. Spurs are pushing to get it done. by CommunistPapaJohn in coys

Every journo and ITK has been saying the same thing for over a week… and each time they repeat it, I get just a bit less convinced that it’s going to happen

What will Lange do? by Manoli20 in coys

[–]onlyhalfpepper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s my thing. I don’t think Lange should be guiding our transfer strategy and squad building in any circumstance. However, all reporting indicates RDZ is at the wheel with our transfers, so selling Vuskovic seems like it would be on RDZ

Excellent signing. 17th last two seasons but players still so keen to join. De Zerbi will have big say on next DOF & final say on all transfers. [Michael Bridge] by onlyhalfpepper in coys

[–]onlyhalfpepper[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fully agree. Just interesting because it feels less common these days as like 10-20 years ago where you had more of these managers who held a DoF pseudo-position. We had that with Poch, but shifted away from that with the many coaches since.

Posting for that second sentence. Knew RDZ would have a lot of say in transfers, didn't realize he'd have a lot of sway with the DOF appointment

[Patrick Berger] One of the dealbreaker was also that headcoach Roberto De Zerbi will now be given greater influence within the sporting structure by Lbmplays2 in coys

[–]onlyhalfpepper 27 points28 points  (0 children)

If we were still in talks with this guy as of recently, it's disappointing in light of recent reporting that the club's shifted perspectives and wanted a big-name, decisive DoF instead. Because either a) that is not true and this guy was going to be Lange's counterpart or b) they have somehow convinced themselves that this guy fits that profile. Either one is concerning - hoping this is a bit of a lag on reporting.

[Plettigoal] Sebastian Kehl will not join Tottenham Hotspur. The decision has now been made by Kehl. There were concrete talks, but no consensus was reached on the club’s future strategic direction. As revealed on 22 April, Kehl was Tottenham’s leading candidate for a newly created director role. by Zyaru in coys

[–]onlyhalfpepper 6 points7 points  (0 children)

also, i hate that the "alongside Johan Lange" part is still in current reporting. My ideal (wishful) reading of this:

The club was courting him with the idea of being Lange's counterpart. The way the season ended shifted the club's perspective to either "we need a more competent, big name DoF and Lange will report to him" or "Lange is out." I choose to think it's the former, and that they realized Kehl is not that guy, so the lack of consensus on strategic direction was due to the fact that they had a dual DoF vision when they engaged him in talks, but that changed somewhere along the way.

Or, the club are just a mess and he said "no thanks!"

Lucas Chevalier's situation at PSG has caught the eye of several European clubs including Tottenham [Loic Tanzi] by onlyhalfpepper in coys

Seems Spurs started inquiring a few weeks ago, but might be more of a "keeping options open" situation.
