BREAKING: Manchester City have agreed a transfer fee of £77.6m for RB Leipzig centre-back Josko Gvardiol

Surely once this goes through, we will be moving? Maybe they had some of our targets as back up in case they didn't get him. Also tied to Laporte's future maybe?

I'm not keen on Laporte btw

Huh seems cheap for him. Laporte already rejected us

NEW: #thfc have activated Ashley Phillips' £2M release and other clubs have until Friday to match it. | @CDEccleshare

I think the issue with that is that Levy isn't lying. Not in the conventional sense, anyway. He just doesn't hear the truth cos he's surrounded by yes men who give in to his micromanaging.

Anyway, if the Blackburn lad chooses someone else so be it. There was no sense paying over the odds for a teenager

Looks like VDV is the one we’ll be signing

Yay. At least that should surely mean no Lenglet

#Tottenham are close to reaching an agreement with Wolfsburg for Micky Van de Ven! Deal advancing to final stages now!

There are still details to sort but talks underway, agreement could be done soon!

Personal terms, 100% agreed.

Maybe the left back was the one then

We've been here before

Maybe this has accelerated because they've recently signed a left sided defender. Maybe it was Wolfsburg holding the deal up.

One thing is for sure, it doesn't reflect well on Charlie Eccleshare. This Romano news came out about 5 minutes after Eccleshare said we're not close to signing either VDV or Tapsoba.

Let's hope this happens. I must admit I don't know a lot about him other than he's generated a bit of interest, is young, and is rapid.

He can't be any worse than Sanchez or Dier, we know that much. Plus we could do with more pace in the team.

So it's clearly Phillips and VDV which to me, makes sense. Romero and VDV first choice, Dier and Phillips on the bench. I'm happy with that.

Maybe Tosin as well?

I watched him a lot as I had a season ticket at Wolfsburg last year, clearly a player tailor-made for the PL. That pace and ability to recover is worth its weight in gold - look at how Thiago Silva, a similarly pacey player, came to the PL and was an instant hit.

His only issue is I think he is *too good* on the ball, will catch some players unaware with his insane vision 20/20

That still makes him better than Dier and Sanchez.
