I'd say my problem with that is if you read the recent papers that Son released about his transfer then you'd know the integral part that Levy being there face to face played in forcing that over the line.
The key part was that they couldn't agree a transfer fee so Levy suggested Son came back to London with him to agree possible personal terms and the clubs could continue to negotiate. Levy then tells Son on the plane to relax because "The side with the player has the advantage" So whilst communication has improved, there's elements that are really important that he should be here for.
The reports from the french press about the Ndombele negotiations told a similar story of the way Levy negotiated towards the end of that deal.
Only caveat is that he could simply be there for 2/3 days knowing that nothing of the sort I mentioned was being done in the short term and returns tomorrow but we'll see.
For those interested because I can't read Korean:
I don't know how to stop it auto changing to media I won't lie
We've sent representatives for the BF transfer. Levy's negotiations with Ndombele concerned his personal terms. Regarding GLC, the fee is agreed his personal terms are agreed, however Betis want to restructure the deal.
