Is Saido Berahino finally coming to Spurs?
« on: August 23, 2015, 05:16:10 PM »
Saido Berahino has been left out of West Brom's squad when they faced Chelsea today. The England Under 21 has been in the news of late, linked to a move to Tottenham. Even though WBA rejected a number of offers from Tottenham, it seems Spurs have offered something WBA couldn’t refuse; that is if you believe the press.
Tony Pullis used new signing Salomon Rondon as replacement for Saido Berahino.  Even though he didn’t score on his debut it didn’t stop WBA taking the match to Chelsea and coming close. The finally lost 3-2.
I’ve lived a life that’s full. I’ve travelled each and every highway;
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Regrets, I’ve had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

This story has been running for a couple of weeks, but not having him in the game against Chelsea is a positive step. He is a good player and I hope will fit into team ethos.

I also read that he might not be the only one. Aren't we interested in a Southampton player? Just over a week to go before we know what we've purchased or haven't purchased.

It seems that there are 15 clubs that have come in for him, according to the papers. United and Ars*nal are two of them. If that is the case then Spurs will struggle to get him. Both United and Ars*nal can offer him European Champions league football and a challenge for the title. We can only offer Europa league and a top 4 place (maybe).

It seems that Berahino has put in a transfer request and WBA have rejected it. They've also rejected another offer from Spurs.

It looks like us getting him could be dead in the water. Spurs seem to be chasing other forwards. But then again that could be just paper speculation. A week today we will have got our man or men and then it will be down to business.

I agree Spursx. What I've been reading is that our interest in him is now dead in the water and we've now moved on.

I've seen Saido Berahino on a number of occasions and I would have liked to have seen him join us. But nothing is certain in the transfer window.  :-\

According to what I've just been reading he won't be sold in this transfer window; that was made by their director.

I am wondering if we will buy another striker or midfield before the transfer window closes. 8D :nods:

In case we will, I don't think it's going to be Berahino. We splashed out about £20m for Son, so I really don't believe Levy would be willing to spend more money.

Howdy folks,

I see we've got a new member, great. Hope all is well with everybody?

I was really pleased that Spurs have now purchased another striker. We so badly needed one and this takes pressure of Kane. I hope now that we can start climbing the league ladder. We certainly don't want to fall further behind.

I don't think so either now. According to their director he won't be sold under any conditions. I am sure that Berahino will love that.

There is still rumours that Berahino will join us. He was left out, I believe, from yesterday's game. Just under 48 hours before we know what is what, and what will not be. :nods: :nods: :nope: :nope: :-\ :-\

Let us hope that those rumours are right.
