He is such a good player, he'd be an incredible signing. Can't imagine it'd happen or we'd try, unfortunately.
Exactly this, i cant imagine we would even try. Would love him, probably one of the players i have wanted us to sign most over the last few seasons. But we are not going to get him and Barkley.

For what it worth, Madrid supporters on Reddit are claiming that Kovacic has firmly established himself as Modric's heir and won't be going anywhere. Ceballos is seen as a signing for the future that won't affect Kovacic's role of rotating with Modric.

They also wanted VDV to stay, and Higuain, and Ozil...

Various journos have said he's been offered around Europe already.

Exactly the type of player we should be targeting and signing but reality is we won't. He will cost proper money and that is something we have a huge reluctance to spend

The 'special relationship' related only to poaching players from their academy and 'sharing' tactics. It was never a two-way street involving their first team. It came to an end when Levy realised RM were basically ignoring the deal.
Don´t ruin a good, long standing joke with facts!

Kovacic if we got him I would frap myself off silly. Hey even if we were just in for him I would be wristing off the baby batter. For this reason alone I don't expect that we are even looking at him. But hey that's what keep dragging us in the unknown because ever few years Tottenham pull a signing out of the bag that is worth it xx

lllaramendi , what a saga that was !


Not sure I want my hopes raised on this one so that, like on previous occasions, the player can ultimately come out and say 'I'd rather play for Real Madrid under 11 girls than wear the chicken badge'.

I'm glad we didn't get Illaramendi, he wouldn't have got close to Dier's midfield performances that year
