Tottenham looking to sign another highly-rated youngster

Tottenham Hotspur hope to tie up an £8m deal for Sevilla’s 20 year old, Spanish left-winger Diego Capel. Should he sign, Capel will be Spurs third major signing following the arrival of 22 year old Croatian Luka Modric and 19 year old Mexican Giovani Dos Santos.

Capel played under Tottenham manager Juande Ramos and established himself over the course of the Spanish manager’s last season at the club. Tottenham’s left side was a problem last term with Steed Malbranque getting the job more often.

Capel has been the subject of interest from Arsenal but Tottenham will hope that the completion of Arsenal’s deal for Samir Nasri, will end their rival’s interest in Capel. Nasri announced yesterday that he would be joining Arsenal in a four-year deal for a fee worth around £15m.

    I think he would be an awesome signing. Naturally left sided, good crosser of the ball and decent pace. However, I think that if we did sign him he would prove to be competition for Dos Santos so that kinda makes me think twice about the deal being done.

    Does anyone know if the Bentley medical taking place today rumour had any truth in it?

    Bob, I can see what you mean but I don’t see it as a bad thing. Being short and attack minded is only a downfall if you don’t have the skill/mind to deal with it. They always say a defenders worst nightmare is someone running at pace at them, with the ball at their feet. To be honest, there’s a few things that every fan see’s as a problem, but this is Ramos’s team this season, and if he wants these players he must have good reasons as well as a system that he thinks will work and I have full confidence he’ll do a good job of it.

    just what we need, another attack minded midget to go with GDS and Modric, if they all play alongside Huddlestone it will be like the kids being allowed to play with daddies team?
