Willian secures 'Dream' Liverpool Spurs Chelsea move

41m Euros according to Sky Italy. Good luck to Spurs at that price

Have you got a link to the article mate?

Spurs rumoured to be paying €35m no way will they be keeping Bale if they are spending like this.

Seems to me they have told Madrid they want to make their signings before letting Bale go, in order not to get too mugged off.

Good business sense all round, fair play to them. If Bale fetches more than £75m then they've done very very well

If it is 41m Euros, we have done the right thing. **** that, we could do better for that kind of money.

i think all top teams overpay for talented players. we were pissing ourselves when man utd paid 18m for carrick all those years ago all good sides overpay for players.

Chelsea always got taken to the cleaners but they got value out of their signings over the longer period. they paid 24 million for drogba who'd had one good season in france.

all teams overpay and more to the point have to overpay for top players. its not something that we should be squeamish about comolli got stuffed over carroll and downing.

Willian poised to join Tottenham in £30m deal
Tottenham Hotspur are ready to take their summer spending to over £90m with the signing of Anzhi Makhachkala forward Willian.

The two clubs have agreed a £30m deal with the Brazilian in London currently undergoing a medical. Though the deal is not fully complete and there is a small possibility he could still opt for Liverpool, Spurs look increasingly likely to make their fifth summer signing.
Liverpool were originally thought to be favourites to sign Willian, but Spurs decided to revisit their interest in the former Shakhtar Donestk player. Andre Villas-Boas had attempted to sign Willian in January, with chairman Daniel Levy travelling to Ukraine to speak to negotiate a deal with Shaktar, but the player moved to Russian club Anzhi instead.
But with Anzhi owner Suleyman Kerimov putting the entire first-team squad up for sale, Spurs decided to take advantage and bid.
With Spurs' having already signed forward players Nacer Chadli and Roberto Soldado, and the potential arrival of Willian to follow, there will be more doubt over Gareth Bale's future at the club.
The transfer would also take Tottenham within less than £10m of Manchester City's summer expenditure and make them the Premier League's second-highest spenders.

It will represent a big blow to Liverpool and Brendan Rodgers, who have already missed out on attacking targets Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Diego Costa.
Mkhitaryan, the club's first-choice attacking target this summer, opted to join Borussia Dortmund while Atletico Madrid's Costa signed a new deal with the Spanish side. Willian, who was indentified as their top target once his availability became known, looks to be the third big attacking signing they will miss out on this summer.

He will also have a medical booked at Liverpool just in case he decides us.
