Alex Moss 2,165 Posted August 2, 2021 I think Farke or Webber has said that a full back is one of the positions we want to add a player to, so this doesn’t surprise me too much. I don’t think the paper etc would be reporting it as a near done deal if it was that wide of the mark, they could have just said we’re interested in him (again) and left it at that. It does also beg the question about Max’s future too. Things have been quiet on that front, but if we get £30mil for him, then he’ll go with some of ours blessing, certainly mine, as for that kind of money we could definitely find an efficient full back, plus have quite a lot of cash spare to strengthen other areas thus making us a better side and more likely to stay up (as hard as that is to comprehend for some).

Yellow Green Army 236 Posted August 2, 2021 1 hour ago, Yelloow Since 72 said: What makes the Williams link even more interesting is that signing him would eliminate any chance of Skipp returning as only 2 loans from PL teams are allowed. Have Spurs made their decision? Or are we getting Williams on loan for the season and using the money to buy Skipp permanently from Spurs. £15million anyone😁 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think 12-15m would be about right with a sizeable sell on profit % (15-20%) as well as a first option to re-sign for spurs. The reality is that he has only played 1 full season of regular professional football at Championship level. But his performances at that level, English homegrown tag and England u21 performances mean he doesn't go cheap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,092 Posted August 2, 2021 Rumour is Santo wants to get shot of ageing Sissoko which will elevate Skipp in the pecking order possibly, or put him further down it. Kane missed training today so a lot of change potentially at Spurs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But his performances at that level, English homegrown tag and England u21 performances mean he doesn't go cheap. Spurs will be very reluctant to sell, so can't see them wanting anything less than £25m for Skipp - while that doesn't match his CV to date, it is the least Spurs would want for a very promising youngster from their academy. Palace had to pay £18m for Guehi from Chelsea, and he only had one year left on his contract and had told the club he wasn't going to sign a new one. Think it is a bit immaterial though as I doubt Skipp would want to leave Spurs for anywhere apart from the very largest clubs on a permanent deal right now.

Never heard of him but he's a midfielder according to google- looks like someone who plays all across the attacking midfield positions. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bethnal Yellow and Green 1,557 Posted August 2, 2021 Carter-Vickers is a decent Championship defender. If Norwich signed him it would just be to add squad numbers, he wouldn't be an improvement on either Hanley or Gibson. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

curious yellow 184 Posted August 2, 2021 With just a week and a half left, it could be a struggle getting Hanley and particularly Gibson match fit. With talk of bringing in Cahill, signing on and loan fees to plug a temporary gap, makes you think we might have been better off paying the extra 3mil for Ajer.
