Wilson is apparently on £110k a week. So that would seem a lot for us to spend on a backup striker.It's a bit like a slightly less sexy "CAVANI and KJAER DOUBLE SWOOOP IMPENDING ACCORDING TO NAPOLI PRESIDENT" after that world cup...
But having said that both moves make sense* if a good deal could be worked out, maybe they'd even take a couple of younger players ready for a lot of games in the championship.
*My only worry is if Wilson's injury problems caught up with him a bit this season but fingers crossed he'd come back fighting fit + it's not like we'd be initially desperate for him so he'd have time for a proper pre season.
Edit - Also just to say, Brooks seems like a cracking prospect, would love to see if he'd step it up alongside a realistically higher level calibre of player around him.
We were probably paying Llorente something not too far off of that.Wilson is apparently on £110k a week. So that would seem a lot for us to spend on a backup striker.
We were paying him more. And that’s not a good investment, post stadium, and in covid world.We were probably paying Llorente something not too far off of that.

Josh King is on less and is available, and is less injury prone. Troy Deeney also an option.
Yeah, just heard that. Shame. Reckon he’d have been awesome to throw on against arsenal!Having knee surgery so would rule him out
They hate him and he really hates them hahaYeah, just heard that. Shame. Reckon he’d have been awesome to throw on against arsenal!
I love how much they wet their pants when playing against him!They hate him and he really hates them haha

Not really, as there always a West Ham around stupid enough to pay it and “get bragging rights over Tottenham”!Or it forces down his price

It’ll need to be reduced fee (based on his knees if nothing else!) and then he’ll need to accept less Per week as well.Let's see. I'm sure that'll be the approach that Levy takes, if we're interested
Hasnt signed for anyone yetJosh King and Ryan Fraser would do me. Didn't Fraser leave on a free transfer?
Callum Wilson is, at least, not a foreign player who would count against the quota. WHich we really have to be mindful of with Walker-Peters leaving and Hojbjerg incoming.
