He is going to Spurs if Conte has his wishes for that vital 7th signing.
Tuchel: “We got sanctioned and players left us, we know that some players are trying to leave us, and this is where it is. We had an urgent appeal for quality players and a huge amount of quality players. We've got two quality players – that is no doubt – but we are not competitive like this and, unfortunately, we could see it today." https://www.telegraph.co.uk/footbal...chel-questions-chelseas-ability-compete-next/
I predict Chelsea targets next week is Frenkie De Jong, Aké (again), Ronaldo, Fofana (Kounde-alt.) and a bit of Rice on the side. This scatter-gun american (Boehly) approach is crazy. And they will give away (similarly to Lukaku) Werner (BVB) and Ziyech (Milan) late in the window. And be stuck with the two spanish elder statesmen.
I love Koulibaly though.

They are playing it very cleverly, they have learnt from our early mistakes, they will be a threat in the future.Thought Newcastle would have spent a fortune by now.

I think there were issues regarding PL FFP. Also, there were complaints to the PL about their new owners & Newcastle skewing the transfer market, similar to what happened to us with UEFA.Thought Newcastle would have spent a fortune by now.
Luckily, they didn't have that loadsamoney fool that we did in our earliest days, scaring the bejesus out of everyone claiming City intended to buy every top player on the planet! In that respect again, it seems they've learned from our errors.

Dunno mate. If you recall, we had to pay top dollar in terms of transfers & wages for essentially England B players in Lescott, Barry, Milner etc, but it worked.Maybe there waiting to pick up Chelsea cast offs when Chelsea are desperate to sell
With the foreign brigade of Kompany, Zabs, NDJ etc added the likes of Bellamy, Kolo & Nasri, we essentially improved enough to start attracting the Yaya's, Silva's, Dzeko's, Balotelli's & Aguero's of this world.
Newcastle's future has been made infinitely easier, because they have our template of mistakes & triumphs to guide them in walking the same path we trod.
