At the Fun day yesterday, Gary Mabbutt was doing a Q&A session. He specifically mentioned Moutinho as a player he could see coming to Spurs. I think he is well placed to know what is happening inside at Spurs. For him to actually name this player speaks volumes to me. He could easily have been more general, saying that if Modric leaves, we would have to look to replace him with quality, etc etc. I think that this deal is nailed on, Modric to Madrid and Moutinho to spurs all on the same day, if they are sensible. I think he was outstanding in the Euros, better than Modric actually, although he did have better players around him which helps.
Would Moutinho replacing Modric, satisfy you? Would he be seen as a step forwards, backwards or sideways?
