If anything this stinks of Sneijders agent attempting to drum up interest in his client before January. It wouldn't be the first time we have been used to help a player get a new contract or a move to club who can pay big wages.

Too bad i dont know the adress of his agent :D he's supposed to live here like 10 minutes away from me. The only good thing about the agent (soren lerby) is that he isnt known for doing everything for money.. He's the type of agent that prefers the sportive aspect above money... advised him not to go to russia for instance.

Eriksen has the same agent btw.

Further to this I'm sure it suits Levy that we are linked with world class players but don't actually sign them...

Tancredi Palmeri an Italian Journo for CNN has been beating the Sneijder to Spurs drum all day on Twitter and confirmed VdV has definitely talked to Sneijder about the move. This would be the biggest coup since VdV but I am not getting excited yet, been far too many false dawns of signing top quality players to be disappointed.

Brazil media starting to confirm aswell... i have no idea about the media landscape in brazil and belgium (whether they feed you a lot of bs or not) but damn this rumour is getting hotter and hotter.

Norwegian papers also running with this story and they dont do that very often

If there is any truth in that statement, I would say it would wear very thin after a while.

We did get VDV though, so there is precedence for such an audacious move.

Like Rooney a couple years ago. Piss and moan and send out rumors. Presto, new contract.

Sneijder for me, funny I thought myself I've never seen his name spelt Sneyder when I've seen the others both ways
