Judging from reports today looks like this may possibly go through, I feel confident that we are making strides.

 

[gazzeh]

It's certainly heating up on the Lucas front.

For the record, this is the guy who called the Nkoudou deal before anyone else

Tbf he said it was 99% done and it didn't get finalised until over a month later so maybe that's not the best example

Welcome to Tottenham.....

True but I'm pretty sure that deal was hung up on N'Jie not wanting to join Marseille until the last day of the window, no?

I'll be honest, don't really know a lot about him but anyone who can come in and boost the overall energy of the squad whilst adding something different to what we've already got is always welcome!

(In before this rumour gets shot down )

He’s very very well regarded in France and one of the top journos.

I hope this doesn’t mean we’ve given up on Malcom as they both have different skill sets.

I agree that I hope we are still in for Malcom, his stats are incredible for a player his age and his long-range shooting ability could really draw out defenders and open up space for our other attackers to operate in.

Signing Lucas makes a lot of sense -- he's available now as opposed to the summer, he'd be coming in at a very reasonable fee given PSG's FFP desperation and the 18 months remaining on his contract, and he would provide exactly the skill set we are lacking against teams that park the bus. I just hope it wouldn't be at the expense of also signing a young potential superstar who by all accounts wants to be at Spurs.

Sod that, gonna order a Moura shirt and put a tenner on him scoring the winner for us in the NLD

GKN was done way before it was announced iirc.

I'd prefer malcom but still think this guy is class and if we can get him for around 25mill that's incredible business again, he's clearly got something and I think poch can get the best out of him

Also nice to hear again he's impressed with our vision and plans, backs up what hercs has been saying about competing with money clubs

This is exactly how I feel. Lucas is a very talented player who I would welcome at Spurs, but I'm really hoping it's in addition to Malcom/someone similar rather than instead of them

Just seen him tucking into a Big Mac in Southgate

Why's Gareth getting involved? Tell him to piss off.

 

[tony0379]

His running style and trickery remids me of the original Ronaldo

Seems like we're after both but i'm not gonna complain if we only get one of those two.
