It's funny that the other party involved in both was one Daniel Levy too, huh? Coincidence?

Yeah, it would probably help if his opening offer wasn't always made up of Woolworths vouchers payable over 20 years.


If you think Berahino's Tweets are unprofessional, you should see the first draft of Daniel Levy's response to Peace's comments at the end of the last transfer window. It simply read "don't hate the player, hate the game, bro #PeaceOut <peace sign emoji>". Honestly, the shit we'd see if Donna Cullen hadn't banned Levy's user from logging into the website.

I remember when we were linked with Berahino in the summer someone called Paul Smith was saying his sources were under the impression it's done and people were saying how reliable he is, he is the owner of another Spurs site or something? Anyway I'm not sure if this is the same one or not, but he has 93k followers on Twitter for what it's worth:

I'm hearing from very reliable sources that #THFC are going back in for Saido Berahino

It's no coincidence that Berahino dumped agent Aidy Ward and then signed for Gareth Bale's agents (Stellar Group) with close links to #THFC

If this guy is credible it's interesting that Berahino has chosen to sign with Stellar

Interesting but not a surprise. I posted it was a very strong possibility in the Summer on COYS as there has been dialogue for a long time.

Probably not, Daniel Levy keeps his word to players and treats them with respect so would no doubt think other people are the same.

Not the same Paul Smith of Spurs Odyssey website who did state in the summer that he thought a deal was going through. TBF I think most people ITK called this only for Pearce to come in and mess everything up!

Pretty sure Levy cut those ties with Barnett after the Bale deal.

I must admit, that does sound familiar. I seem to remember (ITK?) reading we were trying to sell everyone associated with him?
I recall reading that Levy & Barnett fell out over Bale. I don't recall the fire sale but it wouldn't surprise me

I remember reports of them have a major falling out vividly and seem to remember we were trying to sell whoever else was represented by them, but not 100% positive on that part.

That was definitely mentioned! But I wouldn't believe too much of what was said. We wouldn't actively sell any player represented by them, simply because of what happened with Bale.

This Paul Smith is a journalist, decent but not infallible.

As others have said, there is a different Paul Smith who runs SpursOdyssey .

Although I too thought Barnett and Levy had a falling out after Bale, think they must have kissed and made up as its clear that Berahino favours a move to Spurs and changed agents hoping that would help him achieve that.

Evening Standard (ES) today says we are stalling over signing SB, as we fear he may disrupt the harmony. I don't necessarily believe it but sharing.
