SSN repeating the same saying we are in discussion with him.
If he impresses enough to play 60% of games in our crowded, talented midfield, he's worth 40m.According to the mail we buy him for £40m next season if he plays over 60% of games.
SAMI MOKBEL: Tottenham have edged ahead of West Ham in the race to land Andre Gomes from Barcelona.
Told that under the terms of the deal Spurs will be obligated to sign Gomes for £40m if he plays 60 percent of the games.

I watch every Barcelona game, as they're my second team, so to say.
Andre Gomes is a quite silky midfielder with good passing ability and quite good vision with the ball. A good ball carrier as well. However, he's really slow and tend to be outmuscled even in La Liga. I really can't see him well suited for EPL, to be honest. And I don't really see him as a Poch-midfielder...
BUT: Barcelonas midfield was all over the place last year, with Luis Enrique basically playing the ball directly from the defenders to MSN. Every single one of their midfielders, including quality players like Iniesta, Rakitic and Busquets, struggled and looked insecure and quite average by their standards. Andre Gomes had his first season in that mess of a system, so that should really be considered before writing him off as mediocre or shit.
There is basically nothing about this move in the catalan media, btw. A bit strange, they are normally very close to things. It's all about Coutinho atm.
Ideal as alli replacement for CL thenWasn't the problem that he played in Barcelona as central midfielder whilst he's primary position is much closer to 10 than 8?
So are we signing him or not?
Can't work out whether we are in for him or not

No, I don't think so. He didn't play as a 10 for Valencia either, and according to Transfermarkt he didn't play as 10 for Benfica before he went to Valencia either. He is a 6 or a 8, and in Tottenham I really cannot see him anywhere else than in Dembeles position.Wasn't the problem that he played in Barcelona as central midfielder whilst he's primary position is much closer to 10 than 8?
Just got round to watching a vid of this guy, looks very similar to Barkley
Seems like a valid alternative if not even better, very skilful
There must be a reason Barca dished out all that money for him one year ago

André Gomes: Only 2 central midfielders have completed more dribbles than Gomes (114) in La Liga since the start of the 2014/15 season
