Lyon chairman saying they don't want to sell, gonna be hard to chisel him out of there. £23M is unlikely...

Never listen to a word Aulas says. He's the master of bullshit.

Of course he'll sell for the right price, but it's not going to be cheap. Guy's scored 50 goals in two years. I think it's probably why we're hotter on Batshuayi. Marseille in a mess, player desperate to leave.
Probably made up BS from the Sun

Lacazette far more suitable for us than Batshuayi though. A pure no 9 is doomed to ride the bench due to Kane,
while a more versatile forward like Lacazette can cover him, play with him and play wide left allowing Eriksen to play in the middle when preferable.
At the moment I hope we go for Lacazette and Lassana Diarra who's out of contract, and that we land Rico Henry for the future.
I'm sure I'll change my mind several times during the summer as always, but I think that would be a very strong transfer summer for us.

Samuel Umtiti on #Spurs interest: "It's flattering that Pochettino is interested in me, he's a coach I appreciate + his team is performing"
But the rest of the quote:
I want to finish this season will, that is my priority. I watch all the leagues but I think that the Spanish league suits me the best, in terms of my qualities. I like Barca as much as I like Real.”

Boufal has been named Ligue 1 Player of the Month for April.

Nope, I've only advocated for Carroll and potentially Chadli or Clinton if we can get someone like Lacazette in to replace them (in addition to another striker like Batshuayi).
Mason should stay, he is a solid player and a decent part of the squad.
Bentaleb I think should be given the chance to play understudy to Dembele next season - but I would understand if Poch doesn't think he can cut it, but my preference would be for him to stay.

Not necessarily advocating signing him, but Jefferson Montero always impresses me for Swansea - quick, direct, skilful, intelligent and good delivery. A player like him could be a good addition to the squad to come off the bench

I would question the intelligence and good delivery bit. On his day very dangerous, but those days are too few and far between.

Early reports in France suggesting Boufal could be out till Christmas. Apparently the ACL snap was audible.

Link?
Because I've looked and seen nothing that's said that. The manager also said there was no ligament damage.

Was on the RMC sports bulletin just before the F1: http://rmc.bfmtv.com/mediaplayer/live-audio/
The official quote from Antonetti is: "Boufal felt a crack in his right knee when he changed direction. We will not know more until tests tomorrow"

Might be bad translation, but it says in here something about ligaments not being affected.

Also, on Twitter yesterday I saw quotes from a Lille doctor or something saying it was not serious.

Selon médecin du #Losc la blessure de Sofiane Boufal au genou droit ne présenterait aucun caractère de gravité sous réserve d'examens demain

Poch is very good at releasing player's potential and getting the best out of them. I was keen on Montero before the summer window.
