And now, the "news"

Spurs favorites to sign Breel Embolo - GiveMeSport

Hey look, another article about Spurs being linked to Breel Embolo! Except I bet we're not. This is another great example of Transfer Rumor Telephone (Purple Monkey Dishwasher): the GiveMeSport article references the Telegraph, which itself references another Telegraph article, which then leads back to... the original Mirror articlethat started all these rumors and is spurious enough to be why we haven't written about Embolo to begin with. For the record, Embolo is a crazy good prospect... but I doubt we're in for him.
