Xavi Simons to #Spurs is a done deal, £52 million fee agreed for the 22 year old as Simons signs a 7 year contract.

#CFC turned their attention to other targets once it became clear that #TottenhamHotspur were in the driving seat + player more convinced by the #Spurs project.

Xavi Simons to #CFC is off, deal collapsed, player impatient and not convinced by the project.

#Chelsea attention has already turned to Fermin Lopez.

This leaves #TottenhamHotspur in the race for #Simons , a gap in valuation still exists, new talks scheduled for this evening.

Many within #Tottenham view this transfer window as closed, with none of the top targets being available or feasible.

#Spurs believe that they went ‘all in’ on Eze, Savinho and Gibbs-White, and that each of those deals were out of their hands.

Expect no more action this summer

With #Arsenal beating #Spurs to Eze, Tottenham see the need to pursuer other options, namely Tyler Dibling, who many at Tottenham believe has a much higher ceiling that #Eze

#TottenhamHotspur remain firmly interested in Piero Hincapie, however new Bayer Leverkusen manager Erik Ten Hag is insistent on keeping the player.

A deal remains unlikely, once spurs conclude the Eze deal, it remains unlikely for any other high profile signings this window,

Understand Real Betis have approached Tottenham with a package deal worth about €20 million for Lo Celso. Spurs have been looking to move the player on since last summer as Postecoglou isn’t a fan of the Argentine. No official bid yet, one to keep an eye on. #THFC

Solanke second part of medical set for today.

[Alex Jones @_Alex_Jones__]

Tottenham will sign a winger before the start of the premier league season, Eze, main target however Palace are dubious to sell the attacker, having already sold Olise this summer. They would demand a fee around 60 million pounds.

#Eze #Tottenham #Spurs
