Perisic medical being reported on BBC now, so this seems as good as done.

Great. First piece of the summer puzzle being done is awesome news.

And more importantly a top target for Conte secured. Even with interest from Juve and Chelsea.

Is it just me or does he often score these thunderbolts with both feet? How consistent is he with his shooting? If he's given the space Reguilon was last season he could be absolutely lethal.Inter winger Perisic set for Tottenham medical

He is probably one of the strongest two footed players in world Football.

I guess i'm quite surprised his output is similar to the likes of Lucas etc considering that shot power and two footedness. I know he's a wing back but still.
I did notice earlier in his career when he played LW that his contributions seem to be a lot higher.

According to Transfermarkt, he has only missed 40 games due to injury in the last decade (i.e. on average 4 games per season). A sprained ankle and a fractured shoulder account for almost half of those missed games. He missed 3 matches in 2021-22 ("muscle fatigue" + his current minor knee sprain).

As you pointed out, one is playing as a winger and the other as a wing-back. Another difference is that Moura is often brought on when we're chasing a goal, so I'd expect his goal contributions per minute to be higher than if he was starting most games (Perisic gets more contributions per game, but fewer per minute).
In his last season as a winger (while on loan at Bayern), he got a goal / assist every 97.5 minutes, which is significantly better than Moura's most prolific season.
All of that said, I do think we (SC) tend to underestimate the extent of Moura's goal contributions - partly due to most people looking at contributions per game rather than per minute, which is a harsh way to view the stats when such a large proportion of his appearances are as a sub.
For context, he played in 11 of our last 12 PL games, but only started 2 of them and only averaged 23 minutes per game. 2 goal contributions in 11 games sounds very mediocre, but a goal contribution every 126 minutes sounds very good (would equate to 27 goals & assists if he played 90 minutes for all 38 PL games....although obviously this isn't an accurate way to view it).

Just shows Romano not got his finger as close to the pulse as people think.

FWIW, Perisic's goal contributions from LWB are very similiar to Trent Alexander-Arnold's (who everyone raves about for getting so many assists).
