Someone like Edouard wouldn't be cheaper than Ings and certainly not 20m lessI’d rather buy Edouard and have £20m change than buy Ings. That’s crazy money.

Or Ndombele could do the best thing he’d have done in his Spurs career and just leave! God if we could add Danny Ings and a CM we’d have one hell of a squad.If we had a choice it would be Ings all day long, but he'll be way too expensive, north of 50 million...hence the if we sell Ndombele caveat.
The other two much more realistic.
Interesting as only way we could fund this would be Ndombele sale for cash in which case if we spunked that case on VDB who would be an incredible addition then would we have any spare change for one of the strikers perhaps King or Wood? And if Ings was favourite I wonder what has changed with the Ndombele leaving...Inter linked to Vidal now so mabye they’ve gone quiet on Tangy? Also all the rumours there seem to include a swap with the Inter CB so if that’s the most likely outcome then we’d not have cash for Ings or TN so all a very interesting puzzle. Dragon’s volume of ITK this window has been very exciting.Also from Dragon:
Also whilst not impossible and there is interest a deal for the ajax Lad is looking unlikely as of now
Lazio and Tottenham in battle for Chris Wood. This can't be life.
Agree. I’d absoloutley love to sign him and I love that we are looking at him but I’d also feel a little uncomfortable with it given his injury record and likely price tag it seems a risk we shouldn’t take if we could for example get one of Van Der Beek/Sabitzer/Rakatic & Wood/King for the same price as 1x Danny Ings. But if Uncle Joe has decided he wants Ings in his fpl team and will give us £50m the sure id absoloutley love to see him in a Spurs shirt , Ings and Kane up top with Sonny & Lucas on the wings and GLC & PEH CM is a pretty juicy thought.I’m not doubting his quality, determination and work ethic and I agree it would take a hefty sum for Southampton to let him go. Given the current financial climate and his injury record, he’s a £50m risk we simply cannot afford to take.
How should I read the edit in Herc’s comment, we’re interested in more than one of their players, or they’re interested in more than one of ours.
I actually think Sessegnon could be a smart move for Ajax. I suspect Tagliafico will move on this summer, so a LB will be on their shopping list, but to get Sessegnon (on loan) plus cash to invest in other areas probably makes sense to them.
What post mate?
Only way I see Josh King happening is if Bournemouth come off the happy pill with what they think they can get for him. Told that we are still talking to Ajax. We have very strong relationship with them. They fancy Sess on loan is true.
EDIT: Ajax interest in our talks is not just one player
Well, this is awkward...No, because there's no link whatsoever and you can't have a thread for every PL striker that could plausibly fit.
I would advise not to guess, as it won't end well for the thread, but certainly don't have designs on taking any team's star striker regardless - the ITK doesn't fit that scenario.
Seems like a lot of things need to fall our way for VDB to come to fruition, which doesn't bode well for us. Also, if he's talked contracts with United, it could well all be over anyway as they will offer more. But interesting news about the other Ajax player, very intrigued as to who that would be having looked at their squad (not going to guess though!). Cheers Herc!
