Spence -> Spurs
Rodon -> Forest
Seems an easy enough deal to do.
Still think Rodon is decent. In fact he could diers job.

Doesn't strike me as a PSG signing
Manchester City to step up their interest in Arsenal's Bukayo Saka
The Premier League champions are now closely monitoring developments regarding Saka's future as he heads into the final two years of his contract at the Emirates.www.dailymail.co.uk
Yeah it's all gone downhill, they're on a clear path to relegation currently imo. The quality of their recruitment has completely disintegrated. There's been a couple of good additions in the last 2-3 years, like Salisu & Livramento, but every season they seem to lose a piece or two of the jigsaw without replacing them.
They may just stay up without JWP, but it would be a close run thing. I wouldn't back them to replace him adequately.

That's a shame, I was enjoying the way Leonardo ran that placeCampos is the new DOF. Might see a slightly decision making process at PSG now.
Notable sales since the last big exit (VVD in Jan 18):
Tadic

Matt Target
PEH
Vestegaard

Bertrand (Free)
Forster (Free)
Cedric (Free)
You could argue PEH was the only upward move for a player on a similar trajectory (people though Tadic was done when he left for Ajax).
Do you at least get to keep the wheelbarrow? That would be a deal breaker for me.Roubles
Wasn't PEH also quite protracted? IIRC he was their captain but benched for a lot of the season cos he wasn't renewing his contract.Notable sales since the last big exit (VVD in Jan 18):

I remember there was a bit of gloating from their fans about JWP and Romeu being better than him.
That's the team that got 4 points off us last season, yeah?Yeah it's all gone downhill, they're on a clear path to relegation currently imo.

Yeah, it's not going well for them in recent years. Not so long ago they were a club knocking on the top 6. That was never going to be maintained, but to have dropped off to being a candidate for relegation each season is pretty significant.
Their recruitment used to be stellar. Pelle, Mane, VVD, Wanyama, Hojbjerg, Fonte etc. And they supplemented that with good players from their academy like Shaw & Lallana. When they lost players like Clyne, Toby, Scheniderlin etc they replaced them seamlessly. That's caught up with them now.
It's official then, we're signing Traore for THRC.Football and Athletic Co Ltd....never knew that.
