Spurs and Chelsea battle for £12 million England ace
Chelsea and Tottenham are to spend the summer battling it out for the signature of Blackburn midfielder David Bentley after the player rejected a new contract at Ewood Park. (Various)
The former Arsenal player has been linked with several moves away from Blakcburn in recent weeks as speculation mounts he wants a move away from the club.
The 23-year old is set to cost either Chelsea or Spurs at least £12 million and in my view that is a bargain. Bentley has been, without doubt, one of Blackburn's best players over the past two years.
I personally hope Bentley opts for a move to Spurs because he will definitely receive more game time at White Hart Lane. I also feel several more clubs will come into the reckoning if Bentley does publicly admit he wants an exit.
