[mawspurs]

Fabio Paratici wants to sign Alvaro Morata if Harry Kane leaves Tottenham – with Juventus unlikely to sign Morata permanently.

I do hope not.

Hasn't he already flopped in England once?
What was it Einstein said? Only a madman keeps repeating the same actions expecting different results.

Over to you Daniel.

The first "Similar Thread" listed under this for me is that Paratici wanted to sign Rabiot, I expect that this has about the same degree of likelihood as that one.

I’d rather Recoba or Negredo…

When he left Chelsea
he said he found London
'stressful'

It ain't changed.

Moderately successful
wherever he's been
1/4 strike rate.
1/3 at Chelsea.
I/2 at International level.
28 would cost us 30million Euros
Worth a punt?

Would be an idiotic move and very worrying if that's all he can come up with.

Why is paratici generating a lot of press this week? Does he feel his job is insecure?

He may have averaged 1 goal every 3 games at Chelsea but he spurned a lot of great chances at crucial moments. 21 year old Tammy Abraham scored more than him while playing in the same team. Morata's output was lower than his xG, whereas Kane and Son both exceed their xG every season.

You can tell when there's an International break by this sort of garbage alone.

Makes sense since we play slick football like Spain and have Potter as manager. Even then huge no.

International breaks are always the same the Journalists still have to fill column inches with far less going on. This generally leads to transfer speculation and tenuous(at best) links lined up as "according to sources" articles.

We should tap Gil and Reguilon’s U-21 and now senior Spain teammate, Yeremy Pino. Looks a great player and he plays off the right.
