Alan Hutton rejects improved offer from Tottenham

 

Graham Spiers

 

Alan Hutton, the Rangers full back, yesterday rejected a move to Tottenham Hotspur for the second time in five days. The 23-year-old Scotland international insisted that he wants to stay at Ibrox.

 

Tottenham had made a bid of at least £8 million for Hutton and are believed to have offered improved personal terms that would have seen the defender paid twice as much at White Hart Lane than at Ibrox. Nevertheless, Hutton wants to remain in Glasgow.

 

After immediately rejecting Tottenham’s initial approach last week and then asking for more time to consider it, Hutton, who has also been linked with Manchester United, appears unlikely to get another chance to move to North London. A spokesman for the club said last night: “We have no further interest in Alan Hutton.”

 

That turn of events may cause consternation within Rangers, whose chairman, Sir David Murray, wants to sell the player. With the £8 million for the defender, Rangers could do considerable transfer business themselves and are faintly piqued that Hutton is digging in his heels about staying put.

 

Murray summoned Hutton to his Edinburgh office – ordering him not to bring his agent – this week to discuss a possible move to North London. Hutton, to Murray’s irritation, told him that he was happy playing for Rangers and wanted to remain at the club, at least until the summer.

 

The Hutton saga has also left Walter Smith in an awkward situation. On the one hand, the Rangers manager values Hutton’s talent as he tries to push the club towards their first silverware in three years. On the other, Smith accepts that £8 million is a significant amount to recoup for the player, especially as Rangers spent £2 million in the summer on Steven Whittaker, another right back.

 

“There is the football aspect and there is the financial aspect,” Smith said. “No one at Rangers wants Alan to leave. But sometimes you reach a situation where the financial offer just becomes an acceptable one.”

 

Rangers were even believed to be prepared to give Hutton a financial cut of the deal to leave for Spurs, but this was also stonewalled by the player. It would appear that Hutton, reared in the football hotbed of the West of Scotland, is highly reluctant to leave the environment.

Despite earning a reputation as one of the most unreliable central defenders in England during a nightmare spell at Newcastle United, the France international has been heavily linked with Craven Cottage.

 

Boumsong is currently contracted to Italian giants Juventus who he helped earn promotion to Serie A last season, yet he has fell down the pecking order under new coach Claudio Ranieri.

 

The Old Lady of Italian football have already rejected an offer of around £1.5million for the defender from Besiktas, yet Cottagers boss Roy Hodgson is prepared to pay £2million to land him.

Hutton rejecting a big money move to Spurs? Surely not. I thought players were queuing at the door to sign for them, and only went to other clubs if they were offered crazy money.

Wasn't sure where else to post this, but on Sky Sports website, the frontpage has a large banner for their 'Transfer Latest', with a pic of mophead Stephen Hunt.

In that window, it says...

 

Transfer Window latest

Boro have made an approach for Fred, Newcastle won't sell Steven Taylor or Obafemi Martins, and Reading aim to keep Stephen Hunt.

 

But when you click the link, I can't find any other story to expand on it.

Apparently Spurs made an offer for Taylor which we rejected.

 

However, Allardyce has told the Evening Chronicle: "While they say everybody has got his price, I can tell them that Steven Taylor is not for sale."

Teamtalk has the story...

Allardyce: Toon duo not for sale

Newcastle manager Sam Allardyce has moved to warn off clubs thinking of making bids for Steven Taylor or Obafemi Martins.

 

Tottenham are believed to be ready to ask about the 21-year-old's availability after being rebuffed by Middlesbrough over an enquiry about England international Jonathan Woodgate.

 

However, Allardyce has told the Evening Chronicle: "While they say everybody has got his price, I can tell them that Steven Taylor is not for sale."

 

Taylor is out of contract at the end of the season and has as yet been unable to agree a new deal with the club at which he emerged from the academy.

 

Allardyce worked hard during the summer to bring in defenders Abdoulaye Faye, Habib Beye, Claudio Cacapa, David Rozehnal and Jose Enrique.

 

However, Taylor's progression has been such that he has not only established himself as a crowd favourite but also as a key member of the team.

 

The Greenwich-born but Tyneside-raised player has repeatedly spoken of his desire to remain at the club but despite several rounds of talks between his father Alf and the club, no new agreement has been reached.

 

Spurs are not alone in their admiration of the youngster with West Ham and Chelsea also said to be keeping an eye on his situation.

 

That could prove the catalyst for Newcastle, having moved to tie up the likes of James Milner, Charles N'Zogbia and Nicky Butt in recent months, to finally conclude the matter.

 

Meanwhile, Allardyce has also insisted striker Obafemi Martins is not for sale amid reports both Aston Villa and Manchester City are monitoring his situation.

 

The Nigeria international, who is currently away at a national team training camp in Malaga ahead of the African Nations Cup, was heavily linked with a move away from St James' Park during the summer after it was revealed there was a £13million get-out clause in his contract.

 

However, Allardyce said: "We have had no contact with Villa or City about Obafemi Martins, but I can tell them - and anybody else, for that matter - that he is not for sale."

 

Oops...beaten to it!
