Tottenham fans jealous of Liverpool’s early business.
Ambitious Liverpool have fired the first big shot of the transfer window by announcing a deal to sign Fabinho.
Just days after their Champions League final defeat to Real Madrid, the Reds struck an agreement with AS Monaco.
Their early deal has left rival fans nervous, and Tottenham supporters are among those concerned by their club notbeing quick off the mark.
It shouldn’t come as a surprise, Spurs are notorious for doing their business late, often to their detriment.
This summer fans hoped and still do hope that it will be different.
There is still plenty of time for Tottenham to reverse the trend and strike an early deal, but you can’t blame supporters for being a little edgy.
Liverpool bound Fabinho would have been an excellent signing for Tottenham especially as they are looking for a way to replace Mousa Dembele.
If Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has an ace up his sleeve then the doubts will quickly go away, but until Tottenham show their hand, every move their littany of rivals make will ramp up the pressure.
