It’s why football will slowly die out.
You’ve got Villa and Newcastle absolutely huge clubs and arguably on a par with Spurs, playing in Europe regularly not able to spend, but Spurs can finish x2 17th and spend what they want.
Same with Man United.
Broken system
At what point in time did it become acceptable for clubs to talk to players before approaching their employers first? Is tapping up just not a thing anymore?
Tino Livramento has withdrawn from @England's #FIFAWorldCup 2026 squad.
The 23-year-old picked up a minor calf injury in training with the Three Lions on Sunday afternoon. A subsequent scan and medical assessment on Monday unfortunately confirmed he could play no further part in England's tournament.
He will continue his rehabilitation with the Magpies' medical team. Chelsea's Trevor Chalobah has been called up in Livramento's place.
Desire Doue, Rayan Cherki, Hugo Ekitike, Joao Pedro…
Just four of the now world stars Steve Nickson wanted to bring to #NUFC before everybody knew their names.
And people want to act like this bloke walking out on us isn’t a very bad thing for the football club? 😂 clueless
🚨 Newcastle are in talks with Osasuna over a deal to sign winger Victor Muñoz.
👍🏽 Positive talks have taken place over the last few days, numbers have been discussed, but there is no agreement as of yet.
💰 Reports in Spain say Osasuna value the former Real Madrid man at £35m.
💨 Speed merchant Muñoz is currently with his national team at their World Cup base camp in Tennessee.
🇪🇸 Osasuna have also recently changed coach which is complicating things further.
🙃Newcastle are cautious after missing out on Zadok Yohanna to Brighton last week.
