Why Spurs aren't signing players
1 min read
TRANSFER TALK
There seems to be some confusion on Twitter and amongst Spurs fans, no doubt football fans in general, over the summer transfer window so let me clarify the situation.
Some are complaining that everyone else seems to be signing players but not Tottenham, when in fact nobody in England is actually signing players. They are not allowed to until 1 July when the Summer Transfer Window officially opens.
It opens on 9 June in Scotland, but not in England. It opens on 1 June in France, Germany, Italy and Spain, 11 June in Turkey, Holland and Denmark. In England it is from 1 July to 1 September.
At the moment all clubs can do is talk and arrange in England, the actual signing of a contract has to wait until 1 July.
The dates in Europe are the dates teams can start to sign players, so teams in Europe have a head start on Premier League teams.

COYS!!
The press naturally report that a club has signed a player, when technically they haven't, but to all intensive purposes they have.
Poch should spend big, for this reason alone. If Man City, Arsenal, Man U, and Liverpool were more consistent last season, Spurs would not have finished second. Let's face it. Some of those teams may still be shit in 17/18, but not ALL of them.
I guess there's nothing really here to refute.
COYS!!
