TRANSFER TALK: Spurs lining up last ditch deal
Written by Football-Talk.
Scott Parker and Robbie Keane could be involved in a sensational swap deal during the final week of the transfer window, according to a report in the Sunday Mirror.
The report suggests Harry Redknapp will return with a second offer for Parker after having an initial inquiry turned down earlier this month. Liverpool are also said to be monitoring Parker’s situation but the player would prefer to remain in London.
Despite the West Ham owners reluctance to sell, should Redknapp throw in Keane as part of the deal, the Hammers would have to look at the offer more seriously.
West Ham are on the look-out for a striker and with Keane well down the pecking order at White Hart Lane a swap deal could suit both parties. The only major stumbling block could be the West Ham would want around £5m as well as Keane and the players wages could also hamper any potential deal.
