Pole Ajax-ed! Vertonghen move to Spurs on brink of collapse due to contract clause
http://m.mirror.co.uk/ms/p/tmg/mirr...Q/view.m?id=3653831&&cat=Mirror-News&a=941203
Spurs chiefs are fighting to keep their ?10million move for defender Jan Vertonghen alive.
The talented Belgian, 25, has revealed he expects to go back to Ajax for pre-season next week after looking a certainty to join Tottenham.
The two clubs have already agreed a ?9.6million deal. But Ajax appear unwilling to meet a clause in Vertonghen?s contract suggesting he is entitled to 15 percent of the fee.
The player revealed: ?As it looks now, I?ll be at Ajax on July 2. I?m hoping for a solution, but I?m not expecting a solution.
?This is a shame. I thought that it would be sorted out much sooner.
?I have one advantage: Ajax have got a good coach who knows me. I play in a good, stable squad. Let?s become champions with Ajax for the third time in a row.?
Vertonghen, however, has also given a hint of the extent to which his relationship with the Dutch giants has broken down when he blasted them over leaking details of the transfer.
He went on: ?I?m shocked. The percentage is correct. It?s unbelievable.
?I know that at Ajax a lot of things are leaking. When you hear it about other football players, you don?t feel it. It?s different when it?s about yourself.?

Writing was on the wall as soon as they bought giroud, you could even argue podolski as well.

Think he's calling Ajax's bluff.
They know they're a money making club. No way will they let him go for free!

Arshavin and RVP out, Podolski and Giroud in. They'll need plenty of goals from the rest of the team now.

To be honest i have only seen Sigurdsson play a handful of times so i cannot really make judgement on if he is / isn't good but i have seen Dembele play quite alot last season and i know they play similar roles. Can anyone give a comparison on these players are they like for like, who is better and who would you have out of the 2?

Ajax do not have a leg to stand on if they have agreed to the Tottenham offer.
IMO there is more than whats being said. All he has to do is sign for Tottenham then take Ajax to court over breaking contract agreement, they would incur costs plus the 15% and interest from the day they accepted the Tottenham offer.

Dembele's faster and stronger. Sigurdsson's far more lethal in front of goal, and is better at set-pieces. They're both quite good.
Overall, though, I'd have Dembele just because at a pinch he could cover up front. Doesn't mean I'm not happy about the potential Siggy signing, though, I loved the fella last season.

And someone was trying to convince me that Spurs v Chelsea wouldn't be extra spicy next season!

A question for the people who have seen alot of Sigurdsson last season- where do you see him in our system ?
Box-to-box CM,AM/SS(VdV role) or winger that cuts inside like Kranjcar?
