Summer transfer speculative hopes and dreams

Rumours swirling on twitter that Spurs are in for Depay

Think United have already signed him.

Is there a single player in the world of football (except for Kone) that Spurs are not bidding for?

Honestly think instead of paying scouts they just wait for other teams to bid on players and come in with a higher bid/wages

I know it could be a completely fabricated rumour but if this is true I'd be pretty annoyed. How are young, talented players like Schar (£5m) and Firmino (£13m) allowed to move on for these prices when we're getting linked with £8m and £9m bids for Scott Dan and Aaron Lennon? There's a lot wrong with football at the moment.

UNITED AGREE FIRMINO FEE - REPORT

Manchester United have agreed a £13m fee with Hoffenheim for Brazilian striker Roberto Firmino, according to talksSPORT.

The midfielder scored 12 goals and laid on 10 assists last season as Hiffenheim just missed out on a Europa League place in the Bundesliga. Firmino is currently away on international duty at the Copa America with Brazil.

If this is true, and happens. Signing of the season that will be....bargain.

Has the Firmino to Manure rumours been confirmed? A couple of websites are speculating that Spurs have put a late bid in

Interestingly, I have read in a couple of papers over here that Spurs have put in a bid for Man Utd as well while they are at it...

the English premium

Shouldn't the fact that English players are rubbish and far below the level of their International counterparts make them cheaper?

Not when you have a homegrown quota to fill

Not when you have a homegrown quota to fill

The massive void in quality homegrown players means teams are willing to pay silly money for anyone who's even half decent to fill up the quota?
