Analysing the Transfer Gossip – 31st July (Part 1)

Tottenham could stun north London rivals Arsenal by entering the race for Liverpool’s 26-year-old striker Luis Suarez, should Bale complete his move to Real Madrid.

What’s the story? Whoah, this is like a Transfer Gossip uber story, the two most talked about names linked to the same bit!

Does it make sense? No. Suarez has already backed down on his supposed need to move away from England but surely wouldn’t consider another team who aren’t in the Champions League? Spurs could really ruffle Arsenal’s feathers if they bid though, and if they do have pockets full of Madrid cash, they’d be able to give it a try.

Is the price right? Well, it could be. If Bale was sold for say, £90m, this would mean that Spurs could immediately call Liverpool and offer for Suarez and still have £35m to play with.

Will it happen? 1/10 – It depends on so many things falling intp place. It needs Spurs not to sign Soldado, for them to sell Bale, for Arsenal not to agree to anything with Suarez and for them to persuade Suarez to move two spots up the league table and not in to Europe. But, imagine if it did. The Internet would probably melt.
