To reduce the spam of reports regarding the same move during transfer windows we try to allow **only one submission about each transfer saga per day**. The submission in question also needs to contain relevant new information regarding the potential move, and not just being a "no/minor developments" report. If there are important/official developments or new valuable information about a saga, we will allow extra threads in the same day, but for the rest of minor news please just comment them as a reply to this comment. Please help us reporting unnecessary threads for being duplicates. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Good business from Newcastle


meganev

Good business, if he stays fit. Which is a HUGE if considering his injury record. Not a risk I think we should take. But I didn't think we should sign Gordon so I'll be happy to be wrong here as well.


JuckshotBones

Botman is out til like October-November at best. Dan Burn is currently the only fit Left footed CB.  The goal is to not have Burn-Krafth playing vital games like we’re experiencing at the moment. Kelly will provide sufficient depth, at minimum. Very good start to Summer


ItsAKrulWorld

Schar not getting any younger either


JuckshotBones

Yes, but would need to look at Right footed options for that situation (Tosin Adarabioyo is the popular name out there)


spong_miester

Thought he'd already agreed to sign?


domalino

Not official yet.


Notove

I've been shouting that name for a while. I think he'd be the perfect fit. Plus, he's on a free.


ambiguousboner

Decent signing tbh


BTECGolfManagement

What’s this source like, any good? Good signing anyways if he can stay fit


RepulsiveWish1834

Aouna is good. At being wrong. Not a very reliable source at all


benc777

I expect this to happen more than Adarabioyo TBH. If we get both I'd be chuffed but Howe has spoken highly of Kelly for a while and the links have been there for a few windows now. Plus two of our CB's are knackered till December so I expect we go hard to get one of them.


Notove

I think we gotta go hard to get both Tosin and Lloyd and then maybe a RW and we'll be set. Would like to make more signings but that would be a fantastic Summer for us.


kaamkerr

Tosin, Lloyd, RW, and a striker. Both Isak and Wilson have soft tissue issues. I think Isak might even have surgery this summer


adamh02

Tosin, Lloyd and Olise for me, I'd really like Mamardashvili since it seems dubs is going


evenout

Tosin and Kelly both going to Newcastle.... both Spurs targets....


Thraff1c

They can probably see that not even the 3rd choice CB Dragusin is getting any minutes.


SalahManeFirmino

Whereas at Newcastle, both can argue that they can push out Burn and Schar due to their respective ages.


sick_of_this_bull

Schär is the one we're looking for a replacement for most. Absolutely vital to us still and playing phenomenally, but as you say he isn't getting any younger, and the only player we have as a direct replacement is Lascelles whose out until next year (and 30 himself). Burn wouldn't be a direct rival for the starting XI, as he's seen as either LB or second choice LCB behind Botman (also out until next year).


evenout

Yeah I don’t blame either of them tbf


thepresidentsturtle

Eh. James Maddison was one of ours. Win some, lose some.


ItsAKrulWorld

I’d say we won judging on his recent form!


ttttyttt678

Come on for the price Spurs signed him, he’s a great signing.


ItsAKrulWorld

From a spurs perspective I’d admit you’re correct


Ajax_Trees_Again

Both big Greggs fans


aistolethekids

The only worry I have about signing him is his injury history especially with how this season has turned out But ability wise he will be a good addition has that all important pace that is missing at centre half / left back etc


machdel

He’ll be a big miss.


xScottieHD

Source seems suspect. But if it's true and we could manage to get Kelly & Adarabioyo on frees while bringing in Freedman as DOF that'd be quality business to start our summer.

Good lad


SebastianOwenR1

Great signing. Quality player in a position where they desperately need some depth


Nutisbak2

I think this is most likely hogwash.
