Sounds like the most likely option now?

 

[nayenezgani]

Is he any good though and will he make be forget aWout Weghorst?

 

[JerusalemMan]

Smacks of the creative accounting we'll need to be able to afford some sort of deal for Skriniar as well.
A familiar agent involved too

Well, He's big, strong and is excellent on the ball. He's Brazilian after all. Ohh, And his nickname is "The Beast".

 

[AdamB]

That's good. There's probably not going to be a huge difference between overall standard of CFs which fit our profile and who would come - main thing is that we get someone and someone who Mourinho wants to work with

 

[JerusalemMan]

He seems to press well - a point to favour him to Jose.
He also used to play in midfield, I believe, so is not too bad at linking up well with team-mates as opposed to being laser-focused on shooting or charging on with the ball into blind alleys

Anyone but Deeney.

Jose did say yesterday that without Kane we lacked a 'presence' at the top of the pitch, a focal point.
I think Vicinius would perform that role

This reporter seemed to be aware of the stuff around Bruno Fernandes when it was happening.

Benfica and Tottenham negotiate loan from Carlos Vinícius

Reds prefer selling and have other offers from Italy and Spain
The Benfica and Tottenham are negotiating the loan Carlos Vinicius, found the platform next to the next process source. Talks continue at this point, but there is still no white smoke.

There is still no white smoke because Benfica has other offers for the definitive sale of the Brazilian striker, something more to the liking of the reds. However, the player, top scorer of the last league, prefers the Premier League and Tottenham . José Mourinho is looking for a forward to attack the spurs, since he only has Harry Kane and Carlos Vinicius is to his liking.

Jorge Mendes, businessman from Mourinho and Carlos Vinícius, is at the forefront of the negotiations and could be decisive in this process. Benfica have not yet accepted the offer, but Tottenham have also made it clear that they will not wait much longer for a decision.

He should. He's 191 cm (almost 6f3in in the ridiculous scale)

The Dias sale may actually help us as Benfica presumably no longer desperate for money and therefore more open to a loan.

Or reversely they won’t wanna sell
But is he any good ?

I'd think the opposite - removes any pressure to sell

My sons mate is a Benfica fan and he thinks hes very good and they wont sell.

Well the first bits good
I just read their not gonna play him under the new coach

Could be as a fan Jose wouldn't want to see him go.

Nah. He is only 1.9m and therefore not b easty enough. Also looks very one footed ( left) from the videos I have seen - and didn't notice any headed goals. More a fox in the box type than a hunk of burning love . Still favour Wout.
