Harry Kane

Hi Mr Frog I don’t know mate just passing on the conversation. Maybe someone close to the deal has let something slip when the agreement was made and it has filtered down the chain.
Spurs and us keeping quiet trying to stick to the facade. Let’s see how it plays out if it’s bollocks I’ll take the flack due

Not saying this is true, but us giving Grealish the 10 rather than leaving it open supports the facade also

is this a fact or just your opinion?

See where I'm coming from?

My opinion. I'll admit that.

Not really , we are all guessing but if it was dead it makes no sense to let speculation carry on especially from Kane's camp they would want to be out there building bridges with spurs fans. We would be distancing ourselves from it too.

Are you joking? You’d tell de Bruyne mind your own fucking business if we paid £500k to Haaland and he asked for transparency bearing in mind he’s probably the best player we’ve ever had? Weird

No I’m not joking because this isn’t fucking FIFA. Players and most certainly their agents understand that transfers have a budget (x) which is made up as:

x = transfer fee plus signing on fee plus wages

Now understand that ‘x’ doesn’t give a fuck what’s happening on the other side of that equals sign, just so long as the figure is what the club is willing to spend.

So yes I’d tell him to mind his own fucking business. If a player has a market transfer value of £150m and one signs him on a free, he will end up pocketing the vast majority of that £150m through wages and/or signing on fee (would depend on how the buying club ants it to be accounted as). Same with Haaland if it was a £65m fee rather than £150m that he’d be worth without the clause.

You may well not be able to grasp the high level maths above but KDB certainly would, especially given the fact he negotiated his own contract this last time. He’s not stupid.

The grass I am watching grow after spilling water on it yesterday has grown .0025 millimetres...

...that's .0025 millimetres more exciting movement than I got with the day's Kane transfer saga.

I think your first bit is right about Kane, I don't think the second bit is, as we never seem to comment on transfers? Which is good by the way, But I could well be wrong ;-)

Think he means the 2 clubs know. It's not quite public knowledge yet is it.

The 2 clubs and everybody on here, let's just keep it between our self's, we don't want everybody to know.

What did he previously reliably predict before?
You got a good chance of bigging yourself up here!

Whilst the prospect of bigging myself up is obviously appealing, I'm afraid I can't offer any further detail for risk of identifying the friend that gave me the information.

Sorry.

I agree with this sentiment. When Pep said ”we’ll see” regarding more incoming transfers that kinda confirmed that we’re still trying to get Kane. He’s often very quick to say that we’re done otherwise. Think Kane will be a City player this week.
