Tottenham Transfer Talk


Spurs Reportedly interested in 20-year-old (21 in September) Tariq Lamptey from Brighton. 

 The right-sided midfielder, who can play as a right-back, arrived on the South Coast from the Chelsea youth system in January and is under contract until 2025.

His last game was 16th December 2020 against Fulham and has had a hamstring injury since then.

He has only player 11 games for Brighton and twice for England U-21's in the European Championship Qualifying against Austria at right-back and Andora as right-sided midfielder.

Lazio forward Joaquín Correa could now sign for Spurs due to Fabio Paratici. 

That statement makes this sound like a complete guess from Italian news outlet Il Tempo who say Fabio Paratici is a big fan of the player and has previously tried to sign him for Juventus.

The 26-year-old (27 in August) Argentinian international (6 caps, 2 goals is right-footed and under contract until 2024.

He played right wing against Brazil, centre-forward against Singapore, left wing against Uruguay, Chile, Bolivia and Chile again.

Correa has been in the squad 12 times, started twice and come off the bench four out of the six times he has sat on the bench as well as being injured twice. 

Currently he is with Argentina at the Copa America and has come off the bench against both Chile and Uruguay.

He is also strongly linked with Arsenal, West Ham and Everton but Lazio say no offers have been received, it's all just paper talk.

There have been no actual talks, no discussions, no offers which shows you it's all journalists inventing this and that to pretend things are happening when they are not.

Why? So you'll click to read and they earn from their advertisers.

Lazio don't think anything will happen until 11th July, when the Copa America ends, the Euros ends 10 July.

As reported by Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Biancocelesti are willing to listen to offers for Correa, with president Claudio Lotito putting a €40m )£34.38m - US$47.46m - AUS$63.45m) price tag on him.

Of course every paper is linking us to different players playing in Italy.

TuttoSport are claiming Fabio Paratici wants to bring Fiorentina striker Dušan Vlahović to Tottenham Hotspur.

The 21-year-old (22 next January) Serbian international (7 caps, 2 goals, 1 assist) excelled for Fiorentina last season.

Vlahović scored 21 goals and had 2 assists in 37 Serie A games, becoming one of the top young strikers in Europe.

He is under contract until 2023 and is interesting Juventus.


Spurs are taking an interest in Turkish centre-back Ozan Kabak, who is on the books of Schalke but has been on loan at Liverpool.

The 21-year-old (22 next March) suffered an injury while on loan which restricted his appearances.

Kabak is another right-footed centre-back, when perhaps we could do with a left-footed player.

I hear he might joining fellow Bundesliga side RB Leipzig.

Cameron Carter-Vickers had an excellent season on loan at Bournemouth and is interesting Newcastle United.

The loan was his sixth since 2017.

The 23-year-old (24 in December) United States international (8 caps) doesn't seem likely to force his way into the Spurs team so a £10m move would raise a bit more transfer capital.

Early days yet.

The Daily Star are suggesting that Manchester City will make a final take-it-or-leave-it bid for Harry Kane of a mere £100m which is half of what he should be priced at.

Obviously Daniel Levy will say no thanks to that, but if it is true and if you believe Man City would stop there then I would think you're being fanciful.

With no money in the game, there isn't a club that can afford him, hence I don't see him going anywhere.

Levy and Paratici


I'm sorry but thick fans who lap up stupid reporters suggesting Levy and Paratici differ over an approach to playing style need to go back to school.

Do you not think they will have extensively discussed this before his appointment, given it is a part of his remit.

This is just reporters stirring up trouble and trying to stoke the anti-Levy fans who of course lack the common sense to see through such nonsense.

One Italian guesses something and posts, then every other journalist claims they have heard, are you lot really that gullible.

There must be a hell of a lot of 'contact' phone calls coming out of the club to journalists and all at the same time!

Players don't return to training until July, international players will be having a two-week holiday after the Euros.

The fuss from fans is simply about their egos not being sated.

Individuals who migrate their tax residency from abroad to Italy are allowed to opt for their non-Italian sourced income to be taxed in Italy through the application of a flat substitutive tax, at a fixed amount of 100,000 euros (EUR).

Players are multi-millionaires with investments handled by their financial advisors and clearly a low tax rate on investments is a big positive for players to remain in Italy.
