Is it an option or obligation? Seems cheap for just an option after selling Diaz.
Benfica supporters are saying that it's an option (and that it's a terrible deal from their perspective, i.e. a brilliant deal from our perspective).

£3m is a lot of money obviously, but in football terms its not. Guess Portuguese money isn’t like England’s. Hope he is a hit.

I am just in awe of what we've done in one window. Let alone a window in the middle of a pandemic. We basically overhauled our squad and really haven't had any notable sales... Bizarreoworld.

Has rattled some cages on twitter

Lots saying he's too good for the bench

Wolves fans angry that they failed to sign him last window, now he's moving for peanuts

Arsenal fans saying it means that Kane is off:ROFLMAO:

Utd fans yelling at Woodward, asking how a EL team can make signings, but they can't:LOL:

I haven't been this excited about a Portuguese striker signing since Helder Postiga.
Lol, my first kit was the white Postiga jersey courtesy of my older brother. I don't fit into it anymore but it still sits in my drawer waiting for me to shrink back down to size...

Don’t look at me. I’m irrelevant.

It’s amazing that the talk was always either a young prodigy or an ageing pro like Llorente who could be Kane’s understudy. But this guy is at the peak of his powers. And for a few million to tide us over for the season. Brilliant deal.

I really hope the club let him have the squad number 95.

Do the PL allow numbers that high?

EDIT: Just read the previous post. Please ignore me.

Yeh very cheap. Odd they let it happen if I'm honest. Particularly, as I am not at all convinced we will actually make good on that option, or at least not for the money quoted.

Maybe we can use the old Postiga song (Viva Las Vegas) also for Vinicius.
