Tottenham are set to seal a deal to bring Dutch midfielder Edgar Davids to White Harte Lane. The Dutch man is leaving Inter Milan because of a bust up with his manager Roberto Mancini and Mancini has agreed to let him leave on a free transfer. Spurs coach Martin Jol is delighted to be on the cusp of landing his fellow countryman. "He is one of the most versatile midfielders, a playmaker, a ball-winner with great stamina and huge charisma and one of the best midfielders to come out of Holland in the last 10 years," said Jol. Both Everton and Middlesbrough had shown an interest in Davids earlier in the summer, but the lure of London looks to have won the day.

I beleive that Davids is a quality player with bags of experience and although he is thirty two I still think he has the game to match the Premiership. I beleive Inter have made the wrong decision in letting him go because although he didn't play much for them he is still a great player and I think he can help Tottenham push for Europe next season. Smart piece of work by Spurs manager Martin Jol.
