Wednesday’s craziness has already started. Even before deadline day has officially started, European newspapers are releasing their first Wednesday editions.
Wednesday’s first Bild edition is so far only 11 pages long, but on page 10 is an article very much of interest to Tottenham Hotspur fans.
Its claimed Spurs are very interested in Schalke’s Max Meyer, and that they could even be preparing a €45m deadline day move for the player.
Meyer is just 20 years of age and plays mainly as an attacking midfielder. He can also operate on the left and the right, and it’s safe to say he’s one of the most highly rated youngsters in German football.
Bild believe Meyer could earn €8m a year if he signs for Spurs but Schalke will obviously be loathe to lose the player so late in the window, and especially because they’ve already lost another prized youngster in Leroy Sane.
