Bent takes swipe at Spurs board
Darren Bent has sounded his frustration that his future has still to be settled - and has allegedly used his Twitter page to blast Tottenham.
The England international does not fit into boss Harry Redknapp's plans and was thought to be on the verge of a £15million transfer to Sunderland.
But the move has stalled as Hull and Stoke have shown an interest, and Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is keen to receive the £16.5million he paid Charlton in 2007.
The delay in sealing his exit from White Hart Lane has angered Bent, who did not travel to the Far East with Tottenham for their participation in the Asia Trophy.
He said on his Twitter page: "Do I want to go to Hull City, no. Do I want to go to Stoke, no.
"Do I want to go to Sunderland, yes. So stop f*****g around, Levy."
He earlier wrote: "Why can't anything be simple? It's so frustrating hanging around doing jack s**t. Seriously getting p***ed off now."
Tottenham board member Donna Cullen told The Sun: "We have put calls in to Darren's agent. We are trying to establish whether the Twitter account is actually Darren's."

Bent Apologizes To Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy
The striker who tweeted his annoyance at his chairman has issued a public apology for his words.
The posts were later removed from the site, and today the player issued the following apology via Tottenham's official website:
"I appreciate that transfers are seldom straightforward and are often complex. However, after a long period of waiting following my withdrawal from the plane to China, I had become incredibly frustrated by the time these things take and I posted inappropriate comments on my Twitter site.
"I allowed my emotions to get in the way of my better judgement. I regret my actions and did not intend to offend Daniel Levy or anyone with the nature or the content of my posting."
