Tottenham’s summer of spending looks set to continue unabated with Spurs taking every opportunity to improve their squad in the best possible manner. After signing a versatile midfield sensation, a young enthusiastic winger and top quality striker, the one area that Andre Villas-Boas needed to improve next was his defence, and the Portuguese tactician has wasted little time in lining up Romanian youngster Vlad Chiriches as his next summer target.
AVB has already splashed around close to 50 million pounds this summer, and the signing of Chiriches from Steaua Bucharest is expected to put Spurs back another £7 million.After news yesterday that Steaua had pulled out of the transfer following a tirade from the club’s owner, the Metro quotes the player’s agent this morning declaring that Spurs have come back to the club with a revised offer to push the sale through faster.
Chiriches’ agent Ioan Becali said, ‘[Roma] have not raised their offer of £5.7m. Tottenham, however, are now up to £7m and have taken the player.’
23 year old Chiriches is expected to travel to North London next week to complete his medical and agree personal terms.
