Both players would have to want to come, but they’d improve our first XI significantly.

I would obviously prefer hard cash but if it's generally regarded that it is in the best interests of everybody that Kane leaves us then I would accept Silva and €120m. The last thing the club needs is for this to drag on until the window closes and we are left with a 'want away' striker. As said before I am confident that Fabio has matters in hand and the matter will be resolved in the best interests of Tottenham Hotspur FC and nobody else.
Can someone kindly explain something to me about your laws over there. I keep seeing reports that Harry Kane could buy himself out of his contract and a figure of $40m being bandied about. What would his position be if he did that regarding contractual obligations to the club ?
I'm just thinking why City don't privately arrange with him to finance such an action and then reimburse him via a signing on bonus later. All information gratefully received.
the reports you’ve seen are all wrong.

This is not an English rule but affects all of football globally. It is fraught with legal complexities and has never really been seen as a viable option. The Legal case could take a few years to resolve and could cost Kane tens, if not hundreds, of millions. No clubs would want a player to try this option as if it worked it would kill the transfer system.
in it’s simplest form, it would allow a player to buy out the remainder of his contract after he has served three years of it (or two years if over 28 when signed). The cost is the remaining value of the contract. So if Kane as on £12M per year he could buy out the remaindeed for £36M. The club could then claim for lost revenue which is where it gets complicated and is unchartered territory for an elite player.

Once again I am grateful for such an informative reply
Paratici is on good terms with Bernardo Silva's agent, too.

Would love Silva and Laporte however as been said before, really can't see Citeh or us convincing them to a) drop their huge wages and b) come play along in the Conference Europe and battle for 4th spot. But - i'd take them both in a heart beat + cash

He will be unhappy if he stays, but will still perform due to the WC next year.
We simply cannot let Citeh and Kane bully us into selling at cut price. Especially after Pep’s arrogant comments today.
Manure increased their initial offer for Berba by 60 percent on deadline day 2008. I expect Citeh to do something similar.
this is not the basis of calculation at all but it’s a commonly made mistake that gets reported by a lot journalists as well.

Rubbish. First of all, £100m for grealish was the release clause, so everyone would bid the same and the player decides.
Second, United went into a bidding war with City over Maguire and won. So teams do bid with City, its just they are not willing to pay more.

i believe they are on 120k and 150k per week respectively, so not outside our wage structure.
where would Bernard fit into our team?

Silva wants to go home or Spain and probably neither will happen due to current cash climate.
He won't leave City for any other reason.

Well spotted, which is why I referenced just him in my recent post. they are very good friends. Spurs supporters will grow to realise just how much influence and negotiatory power Fabio has brought with him to our club. I read doubting and negative postings about the future and as a fan I can completely sympathise but also as someone who has watched this guy work in the past all I can do is try and assure you our transfer dealings are in the very best of hands. Hopefully you will come to align with my views as things progress.
Come On You Spurs !

I remember a lot was made at the time about the ruling but all the reports I read said that the big clubs have agreed never to sign a player that uses the ruling.
It would destroy the transfer market, and leave every club vulnerable to losing their best players for nothing.
It's in clubs interests to stand together and not go this route.
So, as I understand it, it is technically possible for Kane to buy himself out of his contract. But, if he does so he would not find another club to sign him.
(But, as with all things Spurs I am sure someone will show me it's just wishful thinking!)

Devils advocate - would he not prefer playing every week in London than sitting on the bench in Manchester?
