Do we have any idea on the fee? I'd hope in the region of 20m

Media team strikes again.
Why would they use his image on the match preview for the Cardiff game, the day before he leaves and it's still online now.

All the best Wilson.
That happened quickly.

Disappointing but it’s the sort of thing that happens in August. Hope we got a decent amount for him.

Absolute nonsense selling one of our top players let's hope we have a 25% sell on and a £20m fee .I feel similar to I did years ago when Ralph Coates left , let down by our board.

Best of luck to the lad

Gutted to be honest, but good luck to the lad who if he keeps improving he's going to be a top player...

Unfortunately it's as it is for us, we have to have player sales.

“It’s a good move for him to Spurs, and it’s a good deal for us with the fee coming in”

So we know the fee?

I think it will always be the case for a club like Burnley that every player is for sale at the right price- but now the difference is it is absolutely the model.

Thankfully, this is not an area where we are short of talent.

Got to be careful we don't sell too many players, regardless of the fees involved, otherwise it won't matter in 2-3 seasons as all the money will be gone anyway.

Hope they loan him straight back...

He's got Richarlison, Gray, Son, Maddison, Johnson, Solanki, Werner all ahead of him.

Unfortunately, I do not see him getting much game time.

Bugger. As said previously, shades of when Ralph Coates was sold, but only shades. Just hope we got a good amount for him.

Let down by the board? If we've received £20-25m its money we cant turn down, and might mean we can keep 2-3 others.

You cant blame them for this one, hes a premier league player that's been offered a chance to play for one of the biggest clubs in the country on mega wages.
Good luck to the lad, we've plenty of options (not as good) but good enough

Yep, money makes the World go round, but at least we have players to come in, which hasn't always been the case in the past.

Very much only shades, Ralph had been one of our best players for a number of years. I'm in a WhatsApp group with some friends from Spurs and the group is called 'Ralph Coates'. I've just messaged to say the name should not be changed.

The difference for me is that Ralph and Kieran were part of the club while Wilson was just passing through.

And why wasn't this announced yesterday -- this new lot have no respect for our past. Sales and incomings are traditionally announced on a Thursday. Everything has gone to pot recently!

I think the only shock is that he wasn’t a player I had down as potentially leaving with only half a season in the Premier League under his belt.

Shame, but we have plenty of options in his position.

I hope we got a really good fee for him.

Great move for him personally and hopefully he can get himself a France call up.

Personally I'm gutted. Amdouni needs to step up now.

Imagine expecting to keep talented young players like Odobert after relegation. This is the model the club is working under now.

Good luck to him at Spurs.

Shows players we wont stand in their way if a big move is on, if the fee is right. Won't hurt our recruitment at all.

Every footballer has his price sadly though some will use this sale as another way to moan about the club.

There are people complaining that is is an undisclosed fee like it doesn't with virtually every single transfer by every club in football

Bad move for him ( needed at least a season in Championship) and bad sale for us as price would have increased dramatically this year. Remember he is only 20ish. Price is immaterial right now What a kick in the groin for Parker and the fans

If the rumours of ‘late 20s’ in millions are true how much profit have we made? Can’t remember what he cost.

That’s £31.5m if true.

That’s as upsetting as anything I’ve heard regarding player sales. I had Wilson down as our player with the highest ceiling. That lad can go to the very very top. I guess it appears spurs also realised this and gave us enough money that we had to sell. Still gutted about it - I do think he could easily be worth £100m in 2 years but it’s a gamble we can’t take/afford if we’re getting near £30m now in the championship I suppose.

When he came on as a sub at Forest in the League Cup, this is what I wrote in my report

"What can I say about Odobert? I don’t know whether he’s going to a good, bad, indifferent or brilliant player for us but I can report that he’s going to excite fans with his play. Full of confidence and pace, and at just eighteen, it’s going to be good finding out."
