Ndombele

I don't see how announcing it has any impact on the accounts. We could always delay the payments. Besides, don't accounts generally run from January to December? At least from the taxman's point of view.

The day the deal is done is when the gain would be crystalised. The time of the payments doesnt matter - if the payment is deferred then it would just be a receivable in Lyon's books until the payment is made. If they have a June year end, as I understand they do, then by the deal completing tomorrow its a gain for them in their 2019/20 tax year, rather than 2018/9.

We also have a June year end so perhaps we didnt want the deal to complete before tomorrow so that our cash balance looks higher at 30 June 2019 and we dont have a creditor at that date for the rest of the amount?

I think you'll see both the Clarke and Ndombele deals will be announced this coming week.

Tottenham are confident of sealing the signing of Lyon midfielder Tanguy Ndombele next week in a deal worth up to £60million, Football Insiderunderstands.

The Champions League finalists have held extensive negotiations with the Ligue 1 club and have made a breakthrough in the last 24 hours about the structure of the deal.

A Tottenham source has told Football Insider the club will not pay the £70million-plus fee wanted by Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas, and are instead close to settling the cost at £55million plus around £5million of add-ons.

Ndombele has made it clear he wants to join Spurs ahead of his other suitors, including Juventus, and he jet into London next week to undergo a medical and finalise terms.

He would become Tottenham’s second signing of what promises to be a major overhaul of the playing squad this summer.

As revealed by Football Insider, Jack Clarke will be unveiled by Spurs on Monday after they agreed to pay Leeds United £12million including add-ons as well as hand him a four-year contract with the option of an extra 12 months worth £20,000-a-week.

Clarke is regarded as one for the future, while Ndombele will be expected to slot straight into Mauricio Pochettino’s first team next season.

The France international, 23, has extensive high-level experience in the Champions League and Ligue 1 as well as starting to establish himself in the team of the World Cup holders.

They got his age wrong though and made one grammatical error.

Jeez the anti Redknapp stuff does get boring on here:D That’s all that ever gets levelled at him is signing players from his mates, you need a bit more than that to accuse him of - no one is denying he’s done it on occasions, but people go on about it as if he has literally done it for every signing. If that was the case he’s an even better manager than I thought getting us to the CL and Portsmouth of all teams winning the FA Cup whilst just signing players from his contacts....

didn't he buy us chimbonda when we had 4 right backs already? that guy what a legend ;)
 
Tottenham agree €72m deal with Lyon for Tanguy Ndombele

L’Équipe transfer guru Hugo Delom reports tonight that Lyon and Tottenham have fully concluded an agreement worth €72m for the transfer of Tanguy Ndombele – however, Spurs are yet to finalise personal terms with the French international.

The transfer includes €62m guaranteed, with a further €10m in bonuses. The agreement was concluded this weekend between Lyon President Aulas and his Tottenham counterpart Daniel Levy. The bonuses are understood to be easily attainable and relate to Spurs qualifying for the Champions’ League on multiple occasions.

Aulas’ objective this weekend was to conclude a deal that saw OL earn at least €60m guaranteed out of an eventual sale of Ndombele, which he has achieved.

Does this mean that Ndombele is joining Tottenham? Not necessarily – the player has not agreed personal terms yet with Spurs, and it would appear that he is wavering slightly.

Whilst Ndombele has been convinced by Mauricio Pochettino about Tottenham’s project, he is cautious about making a rapid decision. He believes that the Argentine tactician will progress his individual game. Whilst the broad brush contours of a contract with Ndombele have been agreed with Spurs for several weeks, there remain more specific details that are yet to be ironed out.

Meetings are expected to occur between the player’s representatives and Spurs in the coming hours to attempt to fully close the deal.

This element of doubt that remains opens the door to other European giants to shoot their shot in the coming hours. Neither PSG nor Juventus will be going after Ndombele, per Delom, with the former having decided that the Lyon man was not their priority and the latter deciding on a deal for Rabiot.

A surprise could come from Manchester United, according to Delom, but they still seem blocked from making a move because they have not yet resolved the future of Paul Pogba.

For Tottenham, the door is open, now they must conclude the signing.

Well, if it’s in “@Get French Football News” on teletext, then that’s a done deal as far as I’m concerned.
 
Can’t believe Levy would not have personal terms all water tight before even bidding that amount for a player.

So the deal has now been agreed, after the breaking news it was agreed a few days ago?

Will we get breaking news again in a few days that the deal has been agreed I wonder.

We've been hearing the same brick in different wrapping over the past week. I wouldn't be surprised if we kept on hearing it for another week. I feel fairly confident we'll land this, but I won't trust any newspaper until I see the man himself in the lilywhite shirt. :p
