TRANSFER TALK


England right-back Kyle Walker and Austrian centre-back Kevin Wimmer both wanted to leave Spurs this summer and were sold for a reported combined income of £72 million (€78.06m - AUS$117.85m - US$93.11m) including add-ons.

Kyle Walker to Manchester City -  £54 million (€58.54m - AUS$88.39m - US$69.83m)
Kevin Wimmer to Stoke City -  £18 million (€19.51m - AUS$29.46m - US$23.28m)

There replacements, Ivory Coast right-back Serge Aurier and Colombian centre-back Davinson Sanchez will cost a total outlay of  £63.65 million (€69.04m - AUS$104.16m - US$82.31m) including add-ons.

Serge Aurier from PSG - £24.91 million (€40.77m - AUS$74.95m - US$32.21m)
Davinson Sanchez from Ajax - £38.74 million (€42m - AUS$63.41m - US$50.10m)

Spurs have therefore upgraded both positions and made a £6.35 million (€6.88m - AUS$10.39m - US$58.21m) profit in the process. In addition Aurier has experience of winning trophies:

2 French Ligue 1 titles (14/15 - 15/16)
3 French Cups (14/15 - 15/16 - 16/17)
3 French League Cup wins (14/15 - 15/16 - 16/17)
1 Africa Cup of Nations title (2015)
4 French Super Cup wins (14/15 - 15/16 - 16/17 - 17/18).

That is brilliant business.

  1. There, they're, their. Write it out 100 times.
    • He has done many more times than that (but not necessarily in the correct places).

      It may well be that, like me and other grammar nazis, you'll just have to get over it. The internet is unfortunately full of grammatical errors. They're even very evident in posts and blogs by journalists - those who make a living out of their writings.

      Sometimes it's hard, but I sincerely recommend overlooking such mistakes and focusing on the content - marginally obscured though it is by some grammatical errors (and far more so by the typos caused by the near-blindness of the author).
  2. Aurier hasn't actually signed yet !!!!! Where do you get te price from ?
    • A price was reported as agreed some days ago Keith.

      COYS!!
  3. Now we need to focus on the other end of the team, the attack. Janssen simply won't do.
  4. I will be absolutely amassed if Aurier is an upgrade on Walker, Clive. Still you never know and in 10 years time when he has given the service Walker did , I hope you prove me wrong.
    • I'm inclined to agree. Walker was excellent (I didn't say perfect).

      Nevertheless, that movement was probably forced upon us. We've probably ended up quite well from it, all things considered.

      Like you, I hope Clive turns out to have a better understanding than we do Steve.

      COYS!!
  5. Still don't think aurier will be a spurs player by the end of the window. Willian moment about to happen. Hopefully we'll get perriera and a decent pacy attacking player by close of play tomoz.
    • Let's worry about that if and when it happens Chris. It's not good for your health always to worry about what might happen. You'll end up perennially depressed - even when most of your worries turn out to be over things that don't happen.

      COYS!!
