With money supposedly tight, I'm a bit wary of us spending £15m of our budget on a relative unknown CB that I'd imagine won't be expected to be anything other than backup initially. Looking at him I can see the merits of it so if he comes I hope our scouts have unearthed a gem. Maybe the deal is structured quite favourably, fees are always reported on the high end from the selling side.

SC: we have shit scouts and never unearth good players before they’re beyond our grasp.
Spurs about to sign relatively unknown player with good local reputation but no more in a position where we need reinforcements.
SC: Who the fuck is he? Typical Spurs not willing to spend to sign a proven quantity.

Nope. It’s a poor translation. The article doesn’t mean he’s literally flying to London. But of course the twitter aggregate accounts don’t care.

What does the article actually say out of interest?

The article basically says he’s “on his way” to Tottenham but not in the literal sense.

It’s also the same article I think but with one or two lines changed.

I felt like there was some hypocrisy on my part when I posted in here, but I stand by my concern on this one. My issue here is the suggestion that we have next to nothing to spend this summer, if so a relatively small fee of £15m by modern standards could actually be a significant chunk of our spending.
If we are looking for a 4th choice CB maybe it would be better to pick up an established pro on the cheap under these specific circumstances. We already have a potential prodigy in Japh whilst Dier and Sanchez are both still relatively young. The extra £10-15m saved on a backup CB could be a significant difference in quality of an acquisition in a key area such as RB.
Hopefully the way it's structured (not much up front and loaded with add ons) means it really is a cheap punt after all and I'm over-reacting.
Hopefully we are pulling a bit of an Arsenal from last summer and our budget is higher than we are letting on.
