Numerous sources in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 claim that Tottenham Hotspur and Fulham have agreed a £15 move for highly rated attacking midfielder Moussa Dembele.
This news comes as a surprise to many as there had been no previous developments or reports that linked the Fulham player with a move to North London.
Dembele has had a highly impressive season for Fulham and has attracted the attention of many clubs. It was expected that the club will have to fight to hold on to their star player, but nothing concrete developed over the summer.
North London has been the centre of late summer transfer drama; Robin Van Persie’s departure from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Theo-Walcott-c34873 having rejected a contract extension with Arsenal and now Dembele’s reported move to Tottenham.
A credible source in England stated the following:
‘‘Tottenham Hotspur have agreed to pay a transfer fee of £15 million to Fulham for Moussa Dembele. The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Belgium-c2850 international midfielder who was also the subject of an offer from Manchester United earlier in the transfer window will join in time for Tottenham’s
Premier League fixture this weekend subject to completing a medical.”
Rumours linking the player with the North London outfit have been circling around for a while now, but nothing as concrete as this. It is understood that Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas was keen on the Belgian international to replace recently departed
midfielder http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luka-Modric-c22857.
Modric finally secured a move to Spanish giants Real Madrid in a lucrative £33 million deal which saw the midfielder’s desire to play for a bigger club turn into reality.
The Croatian’s departure leaves a gaping hole in the midfield for Spurs, and despite the signing of attacking midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson, Tottenham were expected to further strengthen it. Villas-Boas is looking at Dembele to do the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 as the transfer window
comes to a close this week.
The 25-year old player’s contract has a £15 million release clause and with the money received from Modric’s sale, Tottenham should have no problem in tying him up.
Dembele has been an instrumental player for Fulham, and was exceptional in last week’s 3-2 defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford. At the age of 25, the player looks to be an exciting prospect for the Tottenham.
