The time is right for a new quality goalkeeper to make a stand between the posts at Tottenham. AVB tried and failed to get him from Chelsea last year, considering Czech was and is standing in the queue ahead of him. I can see why he chose to stay at Lyon.
However, this guy is one of the most promising goalkeepers in the world and is in the window at an asking price of £16 million, with Levy playing hardball with an offer of £12 million on the table. A quick sale of Modric would certainly add more weight to the coffers if we get the £40 million squid from Madrid.
Wenger has been ferreting away with his French buddies, attempting to put a fly in the ointment, but his goalkeeper quota is quite healthy and with his current struggle to replace van Persie, I would think he's toying with AVB.
Lloris is open to offers, despite Lyon being in the Champions league, he is attracted to Tottenham because he sees them as a team that is going to play at the highest level. Despite some petty press jibes, Tottenham's credibility and capacity to improve, they wait in the wings knitting while waiting for AVB to be sacrificed at the alter of Premiership failure. The players themselves seem enthused and excited by what Boas promises. This guy wants to come to The Lane.
We need to move swiftly to sell Luka and buy this guy, he has the kudos and any questions over his ability to survive the physicality of the Premier League are seriously debatable. He'll do the job and more.
Brad is 41 and time marches on. We have a young promising Goalkeeper rising to the top of his game, wanting to come to Spurs, He is already considered as one of the top ten in the World. Come On Levy Carpe Diem, do the deal- NOW.
