Yep.
Smartmove.
If, and this is a big, big if, he can get a first team spot, he may well be in the premiership in two years. Paul Jewell is spending money to get them straight back up.

The kid has talent to burn, IMO, but never came close to fullfilling it at Sydney

You're completely right Fishy. I know him very well and he has gobs of ability, his problem is not knowing how and when to use it to its full potential and Sydney could never teach him how too. Hopefully in England they can.

He just needs to use that pace at the right times, to know when to beat a man or when to lay it off, and to not be lay in defence on not track back after being tackled.

If they can get all of it out of him then he'll be at the SA10 world cup in our squad.

Spurs land £20m Modric

By ANTONY KASTRINAKIS

Published: Today

TOTTENHAM have pulled off a sensational transfer coup by landing Croatia superstar Luka Modric after reaching a deal believed to be over £20million with Dinamo Zagreb.

Sunsport can exclusively reveal that Spurs have won the race to sign Modric and beaten competition from some of Europe’s biggest clubs.

Newcastle boss Kevin Keegan had an £18.5million bid rejected by the Croatian club yesterday afternoon before Spurs upped the ante to land the star.

A top Dinamo source told us late last night: “Everything has been agreed and Modric will be going to Tottenham. All the details are in place and the fee is £20m.”

Modric will sign a five-year deal with Tottenham. The deal is believed to be a club record fee for Spurs whose previous record was the £16.5 signing of Darren Bent from Charlton last summer.

Ar5ena1, Chelsea and Manchester City were all linked with moves for Modric as were Barcelona, Inter and Bayern Munich.

It is a masterstroke for boss Juande Ramos who has landed a truly wonderful player who is expected to shine for Croatia in Euro 2008.
