Smiffy Fox Posted 12 January 2015 Share Posted 12 January 2015 We may have cooled our interest in Defoe until Kramaic's work permit is sorted. We have more chance of getting the work permit without any other strikers coming in. Once the work permit is sorted I fully expect us to make a move for Defoe.

ktfox59 Posted 13 January 2015 Share Posted 13 January 2015 Why are we still concerning ourselves with JD? According to SSN, if you believe what their sources have to say, he has set his heart on a return to Spurs, a club he has already done very well at. The fact he is training with their development squad possibly says it all considering there are said to be 12 premier clubs after his signature. We need to move on quickly,and not get caught out waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan LCFC Posted 14 January 2015 Share Posted 14 January 2015 Glad we avoided if that's true. Said all along I'd rather have Kramaric and I actually think weighing it up I'd rather have Okazaki too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giggsy77 Posted 14 January 2015 Share Posted 14 January 2015 Tim Pearson on twitter states Leicester and Sunderland are the only 2 teams to put concrete offers on the table to Defoe. So, if Tim Pearson is right, we are still in the running for Defoe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted 14 January 2015 Share Posted 14 January 2015 If they have seriously paid that for Defoe they must be mad, that's a serious sign of a desperate team.If this was real £14m would be the package of around £10m on wages +signing on and transfer fees.

Jace Posted 14 January 2015 Share Posted 14 January 2015 Looks like Defoe will be signing again for another bumper sign on fee and wages, glad he's not coming here he would want to be gone in a year for another signing on fee going by his current record. Much better business landing Kramaric instead someone who wants to prove himself at the highest level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyT Posted 14 January 2015 Share Posted 14 January 2015 http://www.espnfc.com/story/2242968/toronto-fc-agreed-to-acquire-jozy-altidore-from-sunderland-for-jermain-defoecash Sunderland and Toronto FC have agreed to a deal to swap strikers, with Jozy Altidore heading to the MLS club and Jermain Defoe returning to the Premier League, sources confirmed to ESPN FC. Sunderland will also send an unspecified amount of cash to Toronto and MLS as part of the deal. The money involved will be an amount between Altidore's perceived current value and the $10 million (US) that Sunderland paid to acquire him from Dutch club AZ Alkmaar in 2013, a source said. Canadian news outlet TSN earlier reported a swap deal had been agreed, and called the amount of money Sunderland will include in the exchange "significant." Although the deal has been agreed between the clubs, Altidore is still likely to be subject to the MLS allocation order, the fluid rules of which have always played a considerable role in which teams Designated Players land, before he becomes a Toronto player. Toronto FC currently sit sixth in the allocation rankings behind Montreal, San Jose, Colorado, Chicago and Houston, but sources told ESPN FC on Monday that only Toronto and the Portland Timbers are willing to meet Altidore's salary demands of between $5 and $6 million per year.
