Is it a coincidence that this deal has moved on 1 day after wolfsburg agreed a deal for a defender?

Happy days should be completed by next summer transfer window.
Levy would have 1 million knocked of the price by then

Is this good news? Levy can faff around with this sort of shit for weeks (and then try to lower the price again when it seems like it's all sorted.

basically means the intermediaries couldn't Bring the deal so the levy has to close it similar to Porro.

The deal will be virtually done already. This is a story put out by the PR team to make Levy look good - riding in to seal the deal

I'm going so stick up for the intermediaries here, because what they are mandated and given authority to do is not what Levy ends up doing when he gets there. Well at least that is what happened with Porro.

That is fair enough though, that is pretty standard in every business.

Indeed but in every other business you don't have a running comentary about how the guy who signs the cheques comes bounding in on his white charger to save the day, and you don't hear how the intermediaries couldn't get the deal done. Fact is all they are really there to do is soften up the deal and find out what it will take to get it over the line.

But that's entirely usual in the business world - agents play a certain role within certain agreed parameters, if the parameters don't get you there then the principals meet and the deal gets done (or not).
And most importantly, the lawyers get FUCKING paid. Cash. Money.

See above your post
Good point. Though to play devil's advocate, if you wanted to play out from the back to wide positions and also to defend by pushing attackers wide of the goal, it kinda makes sense to invert CBs - at least in my head

Also shows these deals are more complex than people realise.
This is why I've had a little more faith lately because even though things take longer than we'd like Levy has tended to get the things we need over the line in the end more often lately (Porro, Maddison, Ange etc)
