Signed Vertonghen is. 2 year extension of 4 year deal he has. Wait that's Yoda not Dutch, isn't it? What's the difference again?
Ajax have a friendly today, and they're playing a pretty strong XI, but Vertonghen doesn't feature. Bare in mind he didn't even play at the Euros, so he'd 100% be expected to play today, if he wasn't certainly leaving. Great signs!!
SSN are reporting that he has sorted out his "issues" with Ajax, and we just await final confirmation. I suppose, that's something strictly between him and Ajax?
http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11675/7880375/Ajax-accept-Vertonghen-is-gone- He'd better be amazing now after all the trouble this deal has been through!
If I had a quid for every time the Vertonghen deal was supposedly done I'd have enough to get a large fillet zinger tower meal. Until he's stood there reflected in the light of AVB's ginger bum fluff kissing the badge like Robbie Keane in a JJB Sports I won't believe a word of it.
http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/spurs/News/vertonghen-move-agreed-08072012.page? It's done!! (Subject to a medical)
Well considering it's already on the official site, I don't care if they are reporting it or not! It's finally DONE!
Tweet from Jan 20 mins ago "Ajax has made me as a footballer, Amsterdam has made me as a person. Ajax and Amsterdammers, thank you for everything!" "It's official. I'm player of Tottenham Hotspur F.C." I was worried after the Redknapp dismissal that he might change his mind, so good to have this finalised.
