Friends, I\u2019ve missed you all.<\/p>\n

I woke up this morning to a glorious tweet that was sitting in the Carty Free writer\u2019s room. It\u2019s a tweet so beautiful and so hilarious, Dustin had to restore my writing privileges so I could make fun of it.<\/p>\n

The good people over at Football Insider on the site formerly known as Twitter claim that Daniel Levy is planning to beat every other big club to the punch by signing Rodrygo. Normally I would say I wish I was making this up, but the tweet is just… chef\u2019s kiss<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tottenham Hotspur are ready to attempts from the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool to sign Real Madrid ace Rodrygo, according to Spanish outlet AS.<\/p>\n

Semi-related; whoever does the photoshops over at Football Insider needs to take a class because that kit looks terrible.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I\u2019m not sure I can put together a more amazing sentence than what they have in that tweet.<\/p>\n

The tweet is stemming from an article that was posted yesterday<\/a> by our old Bat Country merchants from years past, AS. While they\u2019ll occasionally have some juicy news that actually sticks to the wall, this is completely off the rails. In typical Bat Country fashion, the article says absolutely nothing.<\/p>\n

\n

Where there\u2019s room for two, there\u2019s room for three. And if three fit, there\u2019s room for four too. As the transfer window<\/a> ticks down, Rodrygo Goes (Osasco, S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil; 2001) has more suitors. As AS previously reported , Liverpool<\/a> and Bayern Munich<\/a> have entered the race for the Brazilian in practically interrelated deals. From London, and in addition to the (cold) interest from Arsenal and Chelsea , Tottenham<\/a> wants to capitalize on the situation.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This is the hard-hitting journalism we strive to cover.<\/p>\n

Wait, there\u2019s more you say? Oh, maybe it\u2019s not Bat Country after all!<\/p>\n

\n

After winning the Europa League almost two months ago, Spurs are looking to make a statement this transfer window . Thomas Frank took over the reins of the project following the dismissal of Ange Postecoglou. The Dane was promised one thing: \u201c investment and more investment .\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Okay, so basically you pulled a random quote from when Thomas Frank was hired and somehow manifested this into Tottenham are going to sign a wantaway Real Madrid<\/a> player? Oh but we\u2019ve already spent a lot, pending the completion of a sale for Morgan Gibbs-White once their owner stops throwing a tantrum. That has to be considered!<\/p>\n

\n

For now, they\u2019ve already signed Mohammed Kudus (West Ham, \u20ac63 million), Morgan Gibbs-White (Nottingham Forest, \u20ac70 million), and exercised the purchase options on Mathys Tel (Bayern Munich, \u20ac35 million) and Kevin Danso (Lens, \u20ac25 million). In total, a net outlay of almost \u20ac200 million, in which they will try to include Rodrygo. Of course, they won\u2019t go crazy. Given the good relationship between the two institutions, Daniel Levy will try to lower the Brazilian\u2019s price to below \u20ac90 million.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Ah yes, through the power of friendship, Daniel Levy will convince Real Madrid to sell him for roughly \u00a378 million. This is a real thing that is actually happening and we can take it to the bank.<\/p>\n

Alright, snark aside, let\u2019s actually break this down because Spurs are not signing Rodrygo.<\/p>\n

The reports that come from actual journalists are that Rodrygo is currently making 200k\/week net. If he\u2019s going to leave Real Madrid, that number will go higher. His camp apparently wants to double that, but I\u2019m not sure I believe that\u2019s correct. There were more concrete reports that I cannot find now which suggested that the number was around 300k\/week net, so he\u2019s looking for a 50% increase on his wages to leave Madrid. That sounds more realistic, but it also limits the clubs that can afford him down to a very small number.<\/p>\n

The bottom line is this: Spurs aren\u2019t in this. This is 100% agent yapping to stir things up and if Madrid decide to cut him loose, I\u2019d imagine we\u2019ll see PSG, Liverpool and Bayern, get involved in an actual race for his signature.<\/p>\n

Or, maybe I\u2019m wrong, and Daniel Levy acquired the Heart Ring from Ma-Ti and became a Planeteer.<\/p>\n
