Thanks, I'll take it in good faith - there's nothing potentially wind up in this information and seems plausible. In fact this provides a lot more insight than we have been given on here. It points to the deal is still very much in the balance and dependent on other factors which are by no means givens.Spurs fan here. Doubt I’m very welcome but thought I’d risk posting in the effort to give some information from what we are hearing from the Spurs side of things.
I’m sure a lot of you are as bored as us with how long this whole thing is dragging out, and how each day a new journalist pops up claiming that ‘Kane wants to join Man City’ is somehow breaking news. Everyone has known that since the Neville interview on the golf course.
I’m guessing you have your own set of ‘itks’ like all clubs, and some are complete WUMs, while some are very credible. Well the most credible Spurs itks have all been fairly consistent on this whole saga:
- Kane wants to leave and only wants City
- The whole thing has been a mess from the very beginning due to the incompetence of his agent and Brother Charlie
- Charlie got completely ahead of himself providing completely fabricated information to City of how much it would take to get Harry out of Tottenham
- It’s widely accepted by both clubs, agents and journalists that Charlie is well out of his depth and if anything, been a complete hindrance to any deal being completed. His wedding stunt made the City side furious, and just plain baffled the Spurs side.
- Tottenham ONLY WANT A CASH DEAL. As you can imagine there are multiple reasons to this. 1) the players City put forward are very unlikely to want to join Spurs in the first palace. 2) on the off chance they do, their wages would have to be matched or even improved to join Spurs, which would then cause a big issue with certain players in our current squad demanding parity. 3) in ‘swap deals’ the 2 clubs often have very different views on the value of players. 4) Tottenham have a new DOF who has complete control of transfers (with the exception of Kane) and is working to a plan with a set list of players, and there are no City players on that list.
- So far, City have not offered a straight cash deal. There have only been proposals and player exchanges plus cash, which have been dismissed out of hand for reasons stated above.
- The last 48 hours meetings between spurs and Harry’s team has resulted in amicable discussions. Harry obviously reaffirmed his desire to play for City and Pep. However the club made their stance very clear, he should be prepared to stay unless City stump up an acceptable cash only amount. His team understand this.
- New contract very unlikely unless specific clauses added (doesn’t take a genius to work out what they would be - see Grealish)
- Unlikely to be anymore public stunts from Harry after the late show to preseason. The public backlash again was something half-wit Charlie didn’t anticipate. Even the FA weren’t impressed after sponsors were getting agitated.
- Good news for us all, some are saying that there has been a deadline put on all of this. City have to come up with the cash by the 23/24th to allow Spurs a week to do their business.
- At the moment City aren’t expected to do that unless they can sell first.
- Everyone has a different opinion of what the magic number is.
Another FYI in terms of Spurs spending and transfer funds.
- We have currently only spent £21M. The CB Romero deal is a loan with option to buy for £42M next summer. Some media seem to be reporting we have spent loads already, don’t get sucked into that narrative.
- Spurs have reduced our wage bill by around 500k pw with our outgoings of Bale, Alderweireld, Lamela, Rose, Vinicius, Hart, Foyth.
- There are also rumours that we are sitting on an announcement (maybe stadium naming rights) that would see us have more money to spend that people would expect. Obviously the reason for delaying any announcement like that is to help negotiating for our incomings.
Take it all with a pinch of salt obviously like all ‘itk’ information (I’m sure a lot of you will dismiss it all). None of it is from me so don’t shoot the messenger. I just thought some of you would want to hear both sides of coin.
Also reiterates Charlie isn't the sharpest tool in the shed.Thanks, I'll take it in good faith - there's nothing potentially wind up in this information and seems plausible.

Incredible how owners like this have helped convince the world that Sheikh Mansour and similar are ruining football when it's simply that they don't want to invest any of their own money in a competitive market.
