Tin foil hat time... Fiorentina are buying a CB from River Plate (just announced by DiMarzio), maybe because they’re selling theirs to Inter as has been linked because Inter is about to sell Skriniar
That happened when we signed Lamela. Roma wouldn’t sell until they got his replacement, which was Adem Ljajic from Fiorentina. And Fiorentina wouldn’t sell him until they got his replacement which was Ante Rebic from Split. Once Rebic went to Fiorentina all the transfers happened like dominos over the next few days ?

That is very cool and deserves it's own thread. If you want to make one for it, we'll sticky it :)

I knew we have HG Thread in Spurs chat forum, but my intention just would like to explain the our quota atm and will affect with the Remain transfer plan before TW shut so No problem for me we should discuss in transfer Forum or Spurs chat forums, depend on MOD consider

Don’t look at me. I’m irrelevant.

A bit more detail on the domino theory...

DI Marzio says Fiorentina are paying £10m for Quarta, which is a big fee considering their record ever deal is £15m for Juan Cuadrado and that was years ago.

If they’re paying that much they’ll need income and two days ago Talksport reported West Ham had pulled out of a deal for Milenkovic as they were quoted £35m (with £25m of that upfront).

To justify such a big outlay on Milenkovic Inter would need about to bring in £40M just to cover that level of spending.

Interesting...

Is milenkovic any good? He seems highly rated but I’ve never seen him play maybe we should just sign him to fuck inter off

Not done but this one is more likely than not and will re-iterate that if it’s not him it’s nobody.

I keep seeing this Ben in the tree references, not just in this thread just now but in others as well. What is it about?

Well worth reading the whole thing, but go to “Two”.

Apologies for my ignorance, guys, but if he's so good, why are Inter selling him? That's not me casting aspersions - I don't know who he is; so I'm genuinely wondering why Inter are looking to offload him?

You could equally ask if Bale is so good why don’t Madrid want him? It’s because some players don’t fit with some managers, and managers have to move on players they don’t like to get in ones they do.

Surely we would have moved on to other targets if this wasn't going to happen at this point. I think a compromise will happen, but it will go down to the wire.

Kirkpatrick in the Standard this morning is saying we are going to go in for another go for him this weekend.

Tottenham will make a fresh attempt to sign Inter's Slovakia centre-half Milan Skriniar, 25, this weekend after completing a loan deal for Benfica striker Carlos Vinicius. (Standard)

True, but I think you'd agree Bale's was / is a rather special set of circumstances and that Real Madrid are a bunch of ****s. :D

Happy with rebrabs comments. If we can't get him now then in 3 months time he's unlikely to have changed Contes mind because he's a stubborn git so his value will have dropped even more and IMO clubs finances aren't going to be looking any better then either so both will work in our favour.

Huge game of brinkmanship now. Let's hope man utd don't shit the bed over next few days and go for him (can't see any other club willing to spend close to 40m on a CB except them)
