Tottenham Hotspur have accepted a bid of €15 million (£12.9 million) from Spartak Moscow for Davinson Sanchez.
Personal terms though have not yet been agreed, and Sanchez is understood to have reservations at this point. He has also attracted interest from Real Betis, Sevilla and Galatasaray, and, though the situation could change, there is currently scepticism as to whether he will agree to the move.
I hope he knows that by not leaving he is Putin us in danger of signing other players
Which is one in, one out and the right kind of businessAt least this news sets a base transfer fee at which we're prepared to sell him. I suspect there will be other takers for Davinson at the £10-£13m amount so we can safely assume that he is on his way out and we have £10m to put towards a replacement (suspect this will pay a majority of the fee for Toisin Adarabioyo)
I am surprised that we are allowed to do business with a Russian club considering they are banned from international football. I thought maybe British companies were banned from doing business with Russian clubs. And why would Sanchez want to go there? If I were him I would wait for a better offer, and if none came I would stay at Spurs.
Spartak are specifically owned by Lukoil - an oil company. I think this deal could potentially get us into a lot of legal trouble re sanctions

You need to go away and read up on the sanctions that are in place mate instead of guessing.Spartak are specifically owned by Lukoil - an oil company. I think this deal could potentially get us into a lot of legal trouble re sanctions

when you think of all of the horrific abuse at the hands of knuckle dragging pond life
that he's had at our stadium, Russia can't be that much worse
From a quick google, Lukoil is not subject to UK (or EU) sanctions, although its founder/largest shareholder is.
I would assume the club has KYC processes in place.
