In the latest Tottenham transfer news, it can be revealed that Spurs have jetted out on a transfer mission to assess Benfica sensation Joao Felix
The scout report should read as follows:
Dear Mr Levy and Mr Pochettino
In its assessment of the Joao Felix the scouting department has been concluded the following:
Whatever amount of money it will take to sign him to Spurs ... pay it. Pay Benfica whatever they want. Pay Joao Felix whatever he wants. Pay whatever you need to in order to make Joao Felix a Spurs player.
Whatever the price, it will be worth it.

No way he would choose us over the "big" clubs! That said, I would take him whatever the price.
We might get another Sissoko!!
...add Ronaldo Camara to that deal 
Thanks for insight. But why the diffenrence in HG status between the two countries? I mean, they are in the same league.
His speed is just stupendous. I don't know if you guys are able to see this video, because overseas, but it's from Swanseas meeting with Brentford in the FA Cup. He just destroyed them:
Sadly I cannot see video in UK, but thanks for posting.
Swansea are regulated by Football Association of Wales.
Tottenham are regulated by the FA (of England)
So UEFA treat England and Wales as separate football associations for both international and domestic football.
PL do not, and what makes it even more crazy is that the Football Association of Wales 'outsource' the disciplinary review of Swansea (and Cardiff) to the FA (ie England) to ensure the discipline equality of all the clubs competing in PL and EFL. - so FAW is really a 'nameplate' behind which Swansea and Cardiff hide to ensure the Welsh international team stay as a separate team from England (at least that's the only logical explanation).
Only player Spurs have got coming through like James is J'Neil Llloyd Bennett (age 17) who is amazingly fast and decent technically - scored the first goal at the Test Event for u18's, a clip of which you'll find in the thread for the test event. Anthony Georgiou (age 22) possibly has similar speed but not the finishing ability, sadly.
Have been for years - under FIFA rules - and Chelsea are currently being subject to a transfer ban for breach of them, as I think have Barcelona and a few others clubs.
The rules came about as FIFA got concerned about child exploitation/slavery etc.
Additionally I think there are more rules coming in concerning which nation players can play for which include that they must have had [5 ?] years of eductation in the country they want to play for.
Not even funny.

You've obviously never seen Shilow Tracey play for Spurs u23's or you'd know Spurs have already recruited Sissoko jnr !
FIFA rules state that clubs cannot sign players from other countries who are under the age of 18 "unless their parents have emigrated for reasons not connected to football or both the player and club are based within 50km of a national border."

No. Absolutely not. He’s broken, lost that yard of pace, and doesn’t press. Fuck his reputation, I want to win football matches, and he can’t help us do that.
Kane is probably looking at a Jack Wilshire future. Adding Bale to that is suicidal.
He’s been great for me on FM. *runs and hides*Tottenham transfer news: Spurs jet out on Felix mission - Exclusive

Thanks mate.
Great turn of speed, not the finished article but plenty that Poch could work with.
He needs some polishing but still pretty young. He wouldn't cost us no way near as much as all the other targets we keep mentioning.
Can't use the stadium excuse anymore we really need to spend some dosh this time round.
