BREAKING NEWS: Redknapp Confirms Cahill Deal Off

By Football Talk Published: 31st August 2011

Spurs boss Harry Redknapp has revealed live on Sky Sports News that a deal for Gary Cahill is dead.

Tottenham have been working hard all day to broker a deal for the England international, but Redknapp confirmed a deal couldn’t be agreed.

As he left Spurs Lodge, Redknapp said the main problem was the fee and it was simply a difficult deal to finalise. As a result, Sebastien Bassong’s move to QPR was aborted at the last minute.

Arsenal had been front runners for Cahill’s signature but pulled out in favour of German Per Mertesacker so it seems Cahill is set to remain at the Reebok this season.

Good i am pleased they didn’t get him.

I now wish Arsene would just bring in ONE more top player to finish it all off tonight but time looks very much against that.

Yeah, especially if they wanted £17m with only one year left. That would be silly.

Serves right greedy Bolton. Hope Coyle feels silly now after being so cocky about the Arsenal offer.
