My first thought is of Álvaro Carreras, and what this move means for his development.
That’s suddenly a very interesting player on the market, and one I’m sure a lot of top clubs will now be monitoring.
If Brighton’s approaches for Vušković do indeed climb and reach £60m, meaning Spurs essentially swap the young Croatian for Jan-Paul Van Hecke, then I think it would be a catastrophic decision that completely disregards the long term and wrongly priorities the short-term. Spurs must tread carefully.
Okay, so after watching the @theextrainch.bsky.social video and seeing a few other takes, I had a crack at using their cool Squad Planner Tiers Tool, and I think I'm pleased?
Desperately wanted to write down Scott and go big on a left winger, but realism/budget...
Maybe should've added Van Hecke?
Surely Spurs aren’t even giving Brighton’s offer of £30m for Luka Vusković a second thought.
It will be take a bid of double that for Spurs to even consider, but really they’d be mad to sell at any price.
A two-year loan however, to sweeten a deal for J-P Van Hecke, would be a win for all parties.
Do Spurs still have their affiliation with Djurgardens? If so, picking up Matias Siltanen this summer and sending him on a Eredivisie or Belgian Pro League loan would be an easy win.
Haven’t overly enjoyed being out and about in London today.
An awful amount of Arsenal shirts seen, all worn with sickening pride. I wonder how many were bought in the last six months?
I’ll be keeping well clear of the trophy parade tomorrow.
I wonder if my bitterness is getting the better of me?
I'm darn keen on Nicolò Tresoldi.
He looks comfortably like the most interesting and impressive non-elite striker on the market to me. Due a big move, surely.
@nathanaclark.bsky.social made a good point during the video about complimenting Senesi with an agile RCB with good recovery pace.
JPVH for all of his qualities, isn't really that.
Some options:
Antonio Silva - error prone
Mario Gila - everything is 100 mph
Ismaëlo Ganiou - unlikely to leave Lens
I can’t get back into my Twitter to retweet these from the archive, but it’s fair to say that I’ve been a big of Marcos Senesi for some time.
I’m really pleased that he’s finally ended up in N17. Top signing.
GK: Marco Carnesecchi / Bart Verbruggen
CB: Jan-Paul Van Hecke
MF: Aleix Garcia / Máximo Perrone
FW: Savinho / Bazoumana Touré
ST: Fisnik Asllani / Nicolò Tresoldi
One of these for each area, supplemented by a couple of youngsers, add in Senesi and Robertson and I think that's a strong window.
