🚨Folarin Balogun has an issue after a club medical with Everton.
A deal is now in doubt.

🚨 𝗘𝗫𝗣𝗟𝗔𝗜𝗡𝗘𝗗: The Malick Fofana transfer saga.
🔸 The Lyon winger was the subject of late interest from Andrea Berta and Arsenal yesterday but they opted not to pay the £30M asking price.
🔸 Sunderland swooped in today and agreed a package of £30M, with Fofana set to sign a 5-year contract. A medical was booked.
🔸 Crystal Palace then gazumped Sunderland's fee and offered £33.5M - this bid was accepted by Lyon.
🔸 The player and his team had two private jets booked - one to London, one to Newcastle (near Sunderland).
🔸 Fofana opted to fly to London instead of the North of England to complete the move to Palace.
🔸 Sunderland then matched Crystal Palace's bid and offered a better commission to Fofana's agents - which the player and his representatives gladly accepted.
🔸 Crystal Palace were left in the dark regarding the player’s whereabouts as he boarded a flight from Lyon to the North East to complete the transfer.
🔸 Fofana will join Sunderland for a total package of £33.5M and his agents are getting a fat pay cheque.

Disgrace. German teams like Frankfurt rely on these payments in good faith.
#thfc ⚪️ Omar Marmoush fee is expected to be £59M. The same fee City paid to get him from Frankfurt.
This is because Eintracht Frankfurt a 15% sell on clause for any PROFIT made on Marmoush by City. This is why Spurs paid more money for Savinho. The agreement is a DOUBLE DEAL. 🤝🇧🇷🇪🇬

Who would have thought Savinho’s move from Man City-owned Troyes via a loan from Man City-owned Girona to Man City for a bargain fee would turn out to be the least dodgy move of his career 😂😂
I’m very intrigued to see what lengths Spurs will have to go to Spurs up the summer window their having!
Tonali
Fernandes
van Hecke
Senesi
+these two?
Talks between Spurs and Manchester City for a double deal for both Savinho and Omar Marmoush are already advanced, as @David_Ornstein called.
#MCFC prepared to sell for around £150m as they seek funds to bolster their midfield.👕
