I think we need to take all this with a pinch of salt. Everyone saying Foyth is flying in tomorrow and now others saying it's wide of the mark and we haven't agreed a fee yet.
No way Sessegnon chooses United and Mou of all people over us and Poch. All young players know Spurs is the place to be now. Besides United showing interest is most likely down to putting pressure on us over Rose. Madrid did the same with Valencia when they wanted Ronaldo and again with Dembele when they wanted Modric. It's an old trick. United and especially Mou can't be bothered with the effort of developing a youngster. They would much rather wait 5 years and if they've made it, they will happily bid 60m etc.
That being said, it is in our interests to get this deal done now as his value is only going to go up and spike more interest from other Clubs. Pay what it takes within reason and send him back their on loan for the season. Give them a 10% sell on clause and if Foyth is coming, give them CCV on loan for the season.
Anyone know what fulhams centre backs are like, would they want CCV and would he get plenty of game time? Also give them Nkoudou on loan for season and we pay all three players wages whilst they are their.

But if we haven't made a bid, then he wouldn't be choosing anyone over us, as Spurs would not be an option for him. Alistair Gold is the second Spurs journalist to say we have not gone back in for Sessegnon. Time will tell whether they are right, but it does sound like the club might be briefing.
I agree that we should seem like a more attractive option for a young player looking for development. But equally the lure of a club like Utd can be very compelling.
The club briefing bit I like a lot, it has a logic to it!
Ummmmmm how does this help with signing Sessegnon?

Part ex for Wimmer?
Mind. I can't see Wimmer going to the championship.
But I read that article as saying Wimmer is off to Stoke and Fulham will go for Engels
Jota is the interesting one. He is an attacker, Sessegnon is playing an attacking role
Buy now and loan back please.
Buy him now and use him off the bench as a game-changer instead of Sissoko and GKN
That's a tad bit of pressure. I like the realist in you
I'd rather have both.Sessegnon to Spurs and Barkley to Chelsea and we can close the window after one day.
