That makes total "Levy sense", i.e. to bid way below quoted price.
I hope some club buys Damiao - just to stop those rumours every transfer window. I shot the press up regarding Downing (when Liverpool bought him).

Hope this saga ends one way or another this window. Personally dont think theres a chance of it happening, especially now Defoe is fit again and Ade back from ACN in a week or so tops.

Would this not be one of those multi-party ownership transfers anyway? Would take an age to complete and we're 2 days from the end of the window.

Why will it make any difference if we try for this guy in the summer. It is the Brazillian close season now! If Inter are going to sell it has to be completed now.
Also the only other reason they sell in the Summer is because they are in the CL and they didnt qualify this summer, I also think Chelsea will try to sign him in the summer if they want to replace Torres:censored:

Latest from DM:
Spurs set to make last-ditch £15m bid for Damiao but Lennon is cool on Hooper move

Tottenham will attempt to prise Leandro Damiao from Internacional with a £15m offer after the Brazilian club moved for another striker Luan from Palmeiras.

Tottenham had considered Alvaro Negredo from Sevilla but negotiations are not straightforward while 25-year-old Eder of Sporting Braga is another on their list.

A deal for Damiao will also be difficult to pull off at this late stage however.

Meanwhile, Celtic manager Neil Lennon today played down speculation that Gary Hooper had been approached by Tottenham.
'There is nothing. We have had two bids in from Norwich and that's been it. It won't surprise me if another bid comes in but the answer will be the same,' he said.
'People are working hard down the road, maybe to unsettle the player for their own reasons. I have left Gary to it.
'I spoke to him maybe a week to ten days ago. He is playing brilliantly, it hasn’t seemed to have affected him.

'Everyone has a price but the timing would be so wrong for everything we want to push forward with.
'This is the difficulty of the transfer window; you only have a certain space of time, there is a lot of uncertainly. All managers probably feel a bit vulnerable. My main aim is to keep Gary Hooper here.'

A load of rubbish about Damio, imo. But if it is true I think bidding at this late stage is incredible dumb, no matter what the outcome is.

Beyond tedious now. Was hoping someone like AC would sign him but noooooooooooooooooooo, they had to go and plump for Balotelli.
