Tottenham Hotspur are the latest club that are rumoured to be interested in West Brom’s Saido Berahino.
The Baggies’ forward has made a name for himself over the last 12 months with a string of performances that have kept his club in the Premier League.
Liverpool seemed to be in pole position to ease their striker crisis with the £25 million capture of the 21-year-old, who was called up to the senior England squad for the first time in November. But now Spurs are in the hunt.
Darren Lewis from the Daily Mirror has been informed that the men from White Hart Lane are looking to hijack any bid The Reds’ may make. He tweeted: “Word coming out of Tottenham is that they are now out of the hunt for Saido Berahino.”
Berahino was the top scoring Englishman in the the first few months of the 2014/15 Premier...

Manchester United last night agreed to a British transfer record breaking £59.7 million deal to sign Angel di Maria from Real Madrid. The move makes Di Maria the costliest player in English history, dwarfing the £50 million Chelsea splashed out on Fernando Torres back in 2011, and the £37 million United paid for Juan Mata in January – their previous highest outlay on a player.
Di Maria scored four goals last season – the same amount Nani, Ashley Young, Antonio Valencia and Wilfried Zaha managed between them in 2013-14 – while he also provided 17 assists, more than any other player managed in La Liga. His arrival at Old Trafford will instantly transform a laborious midfield short on creativity, but is he worth the near-£60 million fee being quoted?
Darren Lewis of the Daily Mirror believes the Reds may just be paying slightly over the odds on the Argentinian, but claims United have “no choice” in...

England’s first World Cup group stage exit since the 1958 tournament in Sweden has predictably lead to an extensive post-mortem analysis from the British media. Similar to the 2010 exit and many competitions after the nation’s lone international triumph in 1966, the reasons for failure are being regurgitated from the past, along with some interesting new insinuations.
Some of the old rationales include the lack of enough English players in the Premier League, the need for a winter break, a suggestion to copy the B-league system from other successful European nations, encourage more qualified coaches, better youth development and eradicate the obsession with having only one star player.
On the back of this latest failure, some interesting new permutations have appeared: the Messiah complex by Jonathan Wilson of the Guardian, the Telegraph’s Jonathan Liew’s thoughts on market capitalism and the greedy club theory that includes the...
