Spurs look to beat Toffees in race to sign £10 million winger
According to today's Sun, Tottenham are preparing a £10 million bid for Middlesbrough winger Stewart Downing.
The player has been linked with a move away from the Riverside for some time now with Spurs always holding a keen interest in him although Everton are also said to be interested in Downing.
Downing has come in for criticism in recent months from his own fans and he is supposedly growing very frustrated at it and interested in a move away from the club.
The 23-year old has made over 120 appearances for Boro and also has 16 England caps to his name. I feel it would be best for Downing to move to another club and have a fresh start. There is no doubt he has a lot of talent but for some reason or another he hasn't been able to show enough of it this season.
