Looks like you will all get your wish. Pochettino has previously ruled this out but I think this will probably happen even if it's written by John Cross in the Daily Mirror.

Daily Mirror believe Pochettino is keen to raise some funds next month to make a move for Saido Berahino. #THFC

Roberto Mancini and Inter Milan will reportedly take Paulinho on loan until the end of the season then have a option to buy at £12M. #THFC

Surely if we're trying to raise funds, it'll have to be a perm immediately. Plus a loan with a 12m buy option makes no sense. Daniel does not seem like someone who would take a 5m loss on a player so quickly.

12m, probably add in a loan fee of at least 3m.. and his wages are now off the books.. seems like the best deal we'll get


short of actually trying to play him to see how good he could be :)

I think he'll do well in Italy. He struggles to keep up with the pace and physicality of the game over here. I do think there's a good player in there, but I just don't think he's suited to this league. Italy, Portugal or Spain will be likely desinations.

ITK previously, think it was Trix, stated that there was money available but we had to free up wages

He'll probably do well in Italy. A lot more time and space on the ball and it moves at a generally slower pace overall.

He'll tear it up in Italy.
Seems slightly unLevy to loan him out though but guess hope is for him to have a successful 6months and then likely there'll be multiple Italian clubs wanting him.
Slight shame but clear Poch doesn't see him fitting in and not even getting opportunities now to show he can. We'd better bring in a immediate first team CM who does fit in though. Cos if Paulinho doesn't there's not a chance Dembele or Capoue can, and both of them should be sold too.

Inter already have Guarin, Gary Medel, Kovacic, Yannn M Villa, Hernanes and couple of other midfielders. Paulinho wont get a game there - unless Mancini is selling someone.

If there is a swap possible may be Guarin for Paulinho.

He is not top of the list of players I would sell but £12 mill seems a great bid. And if it's a swap for Berahino-I'm in!

Cruzeiro president Alexandre Mattos has confirmed he would like to bring Tottenham's Paulinho back to Brazil. #THFC

Mattos: "Paulinho is a situation that can happen but only on loan." #THFC

Mattos: "We have asked several times and Tottenham are still unclear on whether they will lend." #THFC


The Cruzeiro loan makes no sense to us whatsoever because they don't want to pay anything, and there is no option to purchase attached.

Inter is a much better option for us, and has been talked about for months now.

Yeah, it looks like he's off- just a matter of where. Do you think he'll be replaced? A lot of talk about Rabiot, Cabaye and MS.
