After a torrid summer transfer window which saw his future at Fulham clouded in uncertainty, Dempsey finally secured a move to Tottenham Hotspur in the end but that has not prevented the American midfielder from hitting out
at Fulham and accusing the London club of lying to him...
The former Fulham midfielder has accused the club of lying to him and preventing him from joining his favoured destination http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 F.C in the summer transfer window. Fulham tried their best to keep Dempsey at Craven Cottage over
the summer transfer window despite the fact that the American playmaker has made it clear that he saw his future on a greener turf than the one at Craven Cottage.
Dempsey was a crucial member of Fulham’s squad as he netted fifteen goals last season but now he has been transferred to Tottenham where he will begin a new chapter in his career under Andre Villas Boas. Fulham have invested soundly
in the transfer window as well as they brought in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dimitar-Berbatov-c11254 from Manchester United.
The Bulgarian target man was on his way to Juventus but a last minute bid from Fulham changed his mind as he opted to stay in the English Premier League. Liverpool had been in contact with Dempsey for a possible transfer move to
Anfield but Fulham took offense and reported the Merseyside club to the English premier League which basically ended their chances of signing the American superstar.
The 29 year old midfielder is now a part of Tottenham’s squad and now he will look to cement himself at the White Hart Lane stadium as a fan favourite and perhaps help Tottenham to improve their woeful start to the new league season.
Dempsey said, "There were some things that were said that weren't true. That's in the past now. It's about looking toward to the future and like I said, I'm looking forward to playing with Tottenham. It's a great team, a great
club."
He added, "I want to thank the fans of Fulham. It's been five great years. Some of my best memories in football have been there. I want to thank the chairman for taking a chance on me from MLS and I wish them well in the future.
I’m disappointed in the way I was portrayed, in the end, with Fulham.”
