Evening Post on Gylfi, Davies and Vorm 10:51 - Jul 21 with 13809 viewsJackSomething

So the Evening Post are reporting (with no quotes or sources) that Gylfi for Ben is a straight swap and will be completed in next few days, while Vorm is going to join Spurs for £2.5m:

So it seems Ben and Gylfi have both been valued at around £10m. What do people think of that (if true)?

Personally, I don't think we would have settled for a straight swap if Pablo was still here. I think the need for an AM is so great that the club felt they had to compromise.

Vorm for £2.5m seems a little on the cheap side. How long was left on his contract?

the reality is that I actually think it's a good deal for us whatever (other than as I said the other day / hour / minute, I lose track) I hope that we have inserted a sell on clause in the Ben Davies deal.

That would be consistent with what the Guardian are now reporting:

"Gylfi Sigurdsson to leave Tottenham Hotspur and return to Swansea City
The Guardian, Monday 21 July 2014 20.18 BST

. . . Gylfi Sigurdsson returing to the Liberty Stadium from Tottenham Hotspur in a straight swap with Ben Davies.

. . .Negotiations with Spurs were being finalised on Monday night after several days of talks which paved the way for Sigurdsson to undergo a medical with Swansea."

The beauty of our situation raynor is that we both consider that the other looks a complete imbecile.

It is a classic win-win situation

Now I'm done with you, you low grade moron.

Not usual for clubs continue to subsidise wages of players after they've left.

It's not exactly a huge leap to see this is likely to be what's happening here. Spurs want to move Sigurdsson on, Sigurdsson doesn't want to lose the wage he agreed to in his contract with Spurs and we want to sign Sigurdsson but can't afford to match that wage. This compromise works for all parties.


It's completely usual for a club to pay up or pay off a player who hasn't asked for a transfer.
