Transfer targets

No deal for Wilson Odobert at that price

Millwall offered $14.8M; Tottenham said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Robert Lawrence is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

In brief
