Spurs complete Palacios deal

By ANTONY KASTRINAKIS
Published: Today

WILSON PALACIOS is officially a Tottenham player after agreeing terms on a £14million switch from Wigan.
SunSport can exclusively reveal that Spurs finally got their man after thrashing out terms this afternoon.

We told you yesterday the two clubs had agreed a fee and the Honduras star was due for talks with the North Londoners today.

A Tottenham insider confirmed: “A deal has been agreed with Wilson. He’s now a Spurs player.”

It is understood Palacios will sign a four-year deal worth around £55,000 a week.

The move represents a massive return for Wigan boss Steve Bruce who coughed up £1m last January to snap Palacios up from Olimpo.

Manchester United boss Alex Ferguson is a huge admirer of Palacios but wanted to wait until the summer to nab him.

It gave Tottenham a window of opportunity to snatch Palacios and they did after upping their initial £10m offer which Wigan turned down last week.

Bayern Munich and Real Madrid had also expressed an interest in the powerhouse midfielder.

clicky

For once i think Spurs have made a quality signing. Abit pricey, but they have opened themselves up to being taken for a ride by being such transfer whores (17m for Bent and 14m for bentley if i recall correctly).

I imagine a massive summer clearout will ensue along with the signing of hopefully 4-5 quality players to replace them. Maybe then Spurs will be a top half of the table team again.;-)

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

i believe the key word is credible?

bild had nothing
kicker had nothing
bayern website had nothing
bayernforum had nothing

bayern weren't interested

hypothetically let's say it's true ... he didn't reject us anyway since it was only an "expression of interest" which it clearly says in your article

onto better things ... CMON BURNLEY

Away goals only count after extra time in the league cup, right?

burnley go through if scores remain the same ... so why are they in extra time then :?

 

[fish eel]

Yeah, I think it's because in the league cup they play extra time before going to away goals

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

definately puts the advantage with spurs ... atleast they know their objective either way is to score
