Back in training today and immediately picked up another knee injury. Going to be really hard to sell him.
Could have a good guess as to how any potential medical might go:

Says he's not going anywhere. I noticed that towards the end of the season.

Key star? :llorishuh:
 
Vic used to be a teammate of the Bruges manager.


Club Brugge bets on Victor Wanyama, 28-year-old defending midfielder from Tottenham. In London contacts at club level are no longer denied.

Club Brugge is aiming high in its search for a defensive midfielder. Daniel Amartey (Leicester City) and Gianelli Imbula (Stoke City) have already been reviewed, but there is also a line to Victor Wanyama.

After two seasons traversed by injuries - including a serious cartilage injury - he is no longer in the top slider. On the first day against Aston Villa, Wanyama was on the bench. Against Man City, he was not in the squad.

Tottenham paid about 15 million euros to Southampton in 2016 and the midfielder still has a two-year contract there, against a salary of 60,000 euros a week. Daniel Levy is known as a clever negotiator. The type that the other party must turn over and hold by the legs to shake the last pound out of the bags.

It will take a serious financial effort, but Bruges has 60 million euros in transfer income.

Wanyama was trained in a Kenyan football school, run by former pro Jean-Marie Abeels. In 2009, after a detour via Sweden, he arrived at Germinal Beerschot. As a teammate of Mats Rits and current Bruges coach Philippe Clement - they know each other well.

He came to the surface in Antwerp but Celtic was too fast in 2011 and paid 1.2 million euros. Via Southampton, he ended up in Tottenham on behalf of Mauricio Pochettino in 2016. A strong first season never got a decent continuation due to injuries. He slipped in the pecking order.
 
Apparently we want £17,000,000 for him.

Good luck.

Just posturing, same way Betis wanted £88m for Lo Celso.

It’s in everyone’s interest for Vic to leave, his body cannot handle the intensity of PL football. I expect we will get £8-10m for him and that will be that. It’s really a shame that it’s ended like this but the truth is that his knees are destroyed. That his only suitors are Turkish and Belgian teams says it all.
