Transfer rumours - summer 2021 edition

If anyone has been watching the pre season games you’d see Dele is getting his mojo back. Of course it’s only pre season but he’s definitely happier and playing with freedom. I think he’s going to have a big season for us….
If this is him getting his mojo back then he isn't good enough for what we need.

Dele worked on a specific side playing a specific role at no point for Spurs has he looked good doing in anything but those specific circumstances. Those circumstances appear to never be returning so maybe we should just accept the new reality and move on.

There are better players than Dele out there, there's no reason to wed ourselves to the idea we must make it succeed despite all of the evidence to the contrary.
 
Anyone think there is a lot more deals to come?

Squad is being reduced by anywhere between 10-15 players

Even assuming Romero & Tomiyasu are done, and count Skipp & Sess, that's only 6 in.

We don't need to replace every single body that goes out. Sissoko and Winks could go for example and be be replaced by a single competent player. We probably don't need a replacement for Davies either of he does go. If Lloris were to be sold, we probably don't need to replace him, Hart and Gazzaniga.

FTFY
 
We don't need to replace them all but we are very light in attacking areas. We need another striker, two if Kane goes. Another centre half, and someone to replace Bale.

Just seen Shaqiri is available for £12m, he could be a good option at that price playing off the right or as a 10.

Shaqiri is a MOTD player and would thrive in a team like West hame who would be happy to give him the ball. I would like to hope that we are better than that.
 
Here is our squad at present with just over a week to go until our first game of the season:

Lloris
Gollini
Whiteman
Doherty
Aurier
Tanganga
Romero
Sanchez
Dier
CCV
Rodon
CCV
Regulion
Sessegnon
Davies
Hojbjerg
Skipp
Sissoko
Winks
Ndombele
Lo Celso
Dele
Moura
Bergwijn
Gil
Son
Kane

What do we think?.... A 6th/7th sort of squad that would become a 9th/10th sort of squad with no Harry Kane?

I think at least one of the ccv's will be gone.

Out of that though a 1st team that would look something like this

Lloris
Aurier (Doherty - jesus) Romero, Rodon (Dier - Fcuk me), Reguillon (Sess)
Moura (bricky Steve), Peh, Ndombele (Dele), Gil (Lo Celso)
Son (Scarlett) Kane

Few more additions maybe

Replace Dele with someone like Sabitzer, and we massively improve. In several areas!
