Olmo plays on the wing, right? Maybe that’s what changed for us to allow Clarke to go back on loan then...

I suspected something like this changed, seemed very odd it would change at the last minute for no reason from our side.

He's saying Olmo is going to us.

Yes just re-read. Bold claim. Could explain why Clarke was allowed to go on loan before preaseason.

Can you make any sense of the closing para though? Does it not suggest Betis and Levy are in no rush as Levy wants to sell Eriksen first? If Eriksen was anywhere near close the spanish media would be all over it.

It apparently says after olmo is done we will focus on lo celso who were close to completing for €68m, bold claims tbf

Pursuit of Olmo then suggests a deal for Ceballos won't materialise - certainly not if Lo Celso is indeed close as well.

I get the feeling the footballing world is presuming we're selling players, in order to buy, rather than having knowledge of such, just because its what spurs do.

Seems to be quite a few stories coming out of Spain linking us with spanish/spanish based players. Obviously real interest in Lo Celso but then Cabellos, Mariano Diaz and now Dani Olmo. Hard to know whats true and whats BS.

Getting the impression that seeing as we are expected to do a fair amount of incoming business this summer after 2 windows of doing zilch, it's as though clubs/agents are using that even more so to link their players with us for their own agenda's. Who knows.

I would take GLC and Olmo over Ceballos especially if Real will let him go only or loan or with buy-back clause.

I’m far from an expert in Spanish football, but I was under the impression that Ceballos was more of a no. 8, while GLC and Olmo would play further forward.

Perhaps we will adopt more of an aggressive policy of snapping up youth before loaning out ala Juventus/Chelsea.

Honest question for you all...

How (da fuck) does Betis’s answer to Ally Gold know about a deal between Spurs and Zagreb?!

Just because Olmo is also Spanish? :cautious:

Possibly heard if Betis were interested in him but they were told he was Spurs-bound? Journo definitely has the finger on the pulse re Bets.
