Pato to Spurs?

His agent has been trying to offload him anywhere he can seeing as his loan to Sao Paolo is just about up and Corinthians don't want him back.

Hes linked with a different club every week it seems.

No idea why we'd want him. Was an amazing talent, then got a serious injury and has since done very little in Italy then his record in Brazil is hardly impressive.

Steer clear

I read yesterday that he's now playing wide left as opposed to being the main striker which is why he's thriving.

I haven't seen much of him in recent years but it appears he has turned his form around and has had less injuries. His form at Milan was apparently hit by growth spurts causing muscle problems so I read.

Id take him for that money if he has been scouted properly and wants to join but I'm also sure I read that he was happy in Brazil and its out of his hands if he gets sold by the club even though he is out on loan at the moment.
No point having a potential star who does not wanna be a spurs.

Maybe pato will become the next damiao who we are forever linked with but never actually sign

That was even worse than the Kane fluffed shot the other day.

His time in Italy record still ~1 in 2. Considering he arrived there as a 17 year old, not bad.

There was always gonna be one mug who tried that and fecked it up.

When he weas linked with Liverpool a few weeks ago I looked up some of his stats and read a wee bit about what he'd been up to.

I was fairly surprised to see that he only ever started in 4 competitive internationals for Brazil (unless you count the olympics)

And the drinking, parties and drugs that ended up with his wife giving him the boot

Meh

Still only 26, undoubted class, injury problems seem to be behind him, good goal scoring record wherever he has been, would be a gamble but I would take him, he could be another VDV type signing.

It`s almost certainly media bolloxx though, I think we will be back in for Berahino.

I'd be happy to see him at Spurs. He's constantly played for the last three years without any injury problems and at £10m is worth the risk.

He is also someone that will not be expecting to start every game especially as he has to get used to the league.

So, isn't Son supposed to be the Kane backup??
He certainly put in a shift against Wet Spam although perhaps his shooting boots were missing.
Pato probably comes with a lot of baggage ... the sort that disrupts the dressing room. And isn't he already too old for this Spurs team?
This rumor smells like Levy trying to make up for not spending on Berahino. I do not like it at all

Okay, I changed my mind ... someone says Pato is only 26. Well then ... do the deal and hope he's not another Paulinho.

Haha this pato deal is crazy. he will not be coming to us. (Unless we are desperate well we are desperate but not that desperate!)

Pato plays on the left now but is due to return to his parent club sao paulo who do not want him back!

According to a Brazilian scout friend of mine pato is off to a big money deal in Asia. (I'm guessing China) he was offered round to Brazilian clubs only two were interested joinville who are gonna be relegated or palmeiras but it was dependent on them winning the Brazilian cup to get into the copa libertadores and overcoming the Derby hostility.

Pato lol lazy journalism.

I would love us to sign embolo of Basel that boy is gonna be something special.
