Analysing the Transfer Gossip – 13th July: Part Two

Tottenham midfielder Tom Huddlestone, 26, is on the verge of joining Sunderland after the clubs agreed a £5m fee.

Tom Huddlestone

What’s the story? Huddlestone has always had quality. He’s a good ball striker and technician and has a nice range of passing, Sunderland need that.

Does it make sense? Yes. He needs to be the starter somewhere again and Sunderland had a paralysing lack of quality in central areas last season.

Is the price right? Spot on.

Will it happen? 9/10 – Hard to see how it won’t.
