For me, it's 24 hours in which loads has happened already. This is definitely the business end of the transfer window.
I'm not sure I'd survive the 80s if I went back, only just got out alive first time round

Haha, yeah. Ever heard a real coup from any of them? They dine off crumbs.
IF that was true and we need to sell, what happened to the "special' Messi money?
I would have thought from the clubs point of view signing Kane is far more important than the chance of signing Messi was.
Maybe some of it went to grealish rest is not enough to sign kane
Unless you put allegedly, supposed, rumoured before things you post then there are a select number of elitist members on here that will pull you up on it constantly when in reality things posted on here should (most of the time) be taken with a pinch of salt. You are free to believe whatever you want to believe at the end of the day and not everything mentioned on here has to be factually accurate or only from ITKs. Some people take themselves way too seriously.

Do they have any gentlemen on Madrid's board.

22 posts, all in the Kane thread and all pushing the pro-Spurs line.
You are fooling absolutely nobody, ‘CityMental’, must try harder

Yep. Was talked about earlier in the summer, the details given and the source made it more than believable to me then, and it explains why Chelsea - and City - didn't pursue things.
As regard whether it's a real agreement, Mino and Perez would be unlikely to fuck about with each other, could cost either big time in the future.
However, I get the feeling the agreement is going to be ripped up by mutual agreement, with Real taking Mbappe and Haaland opting for Bayern. Hence Lewa's announcement today. He's got wind, for sure.
There's always a risk these agreements are broken, but it usually ends a relationship for good (unless, like Real and Mino, both are OK with ripping up the agreement). And the party breaking it will not be trusted in the future.
Take a Spurs player now, say, Son. He gets offers elsewhere, Barca is his dream and they offer him a contract. Levy says, ok, sign again now, you can go next year, you have my word.
If Levy forced Kane to stay this year, would Son's agent trust him? No. Not a chance. No agent would. It would hurt Levy's ability to convince players to join and extend contracts for a long time.
Can't see that, it was allegedly in the 100s of millions.

The 'Messi Money' only comes from actually signing Messi as it is in the form of increased/additional sponsorship etc. We didn't sign him so it didn't materialise. It wasn't a special pot of cash that Khaldoon had in a tin in the cupboard.
I am not sure it was 100s of million. It was 100M cash we were willing to pay barca that was reported
We missed out on many so called A targets, like, Fred , Maguire, Sanchez and Kouibaily, all worked out very well with those, so even if we do miss out on Arry, not all will be lost.
They want both in their team. Real Madrid sources posted before, that was the plan

And when they get them they moan about other club's finances.
