Darren is Bent on Signing for Jol at Spurs
-
DARREN BENT will have a medical at Tottenham tomorrow and sign a five-year deal after Spurs agreed to pay a club record £16million for the Charlton striker.
The England forward has opted for White Hart Lane after rejecting a move to West Ham for the same fee, plus £1m-rated Hayden Mullins. It means Bent has accepted a £45,000 a week package rather than the £75,000 which was on offer at Upton Park, as he chose to play for Spurs boss Martin Jol rather than his former manager Alan Curbishley, now in charge of the Hammers.
Spurs will make a down-payment of £13m with a possible further £3m in add-ons. It is a cash-only deal as Charlton boss Alan Pardew decided against taking any players as part of the package.
Liverpool were also keen on Bent but he wanted to stay in London.

Sign Bent for what? Already you have Berbatov, Keane, Defoe and Mido, where else to play Bent? Replace Robinson?
Cheers.
