Spurs have apparently offered a larger wage, longer contract and that he will be their main CF.

Selling Gakpo to sign Bracola is like shifting the wound from your right leg to the left leg. It cancels out. FSG doing their usual balancing act.

Wild, isn't he already on 300k pw?

Not if you're right footed.

Gakpo is on 250kpw. Spurs gave Robbo a 4 year deal, so offering good terms.

I saw a piece over the weekend on how Gakpo would work perfectly for De Zerbi as a 9 because he would drop deep and link up play.
Not sure if I've missed those games, but every time I've watched him with his back to goal, his second touch has always been a tackle.

"His second touch has always been a tackle." Hilarious.

Spurs will still be bad this year with or without Gakpo.

We tried Gakkers as a false 9 when we first signed him. He was rubbish, so we binned that idea.
We've tried him as a 10 and as an 8 too. He wasn't great there either. LW is his best position, but he needs to play with a false 9, so he can cut into the space left when he drops deep.
Good luck, Spurs.
