Tottenham Complete Signing Of Palacios


Wigan Athletic have 'virtually agreed' to sell Wilson Palacios to Tottenham Hotspur for around £13-14 million.

Steve Bruce is on the verge of selling one of his prized assets, telling Sky Sports: "The two clubs have virtually agreed a fee. It is [now about] how that fee should be paid.

"It is up to us as a selling club to demand what we want in terms of how we should be paid and how it should be structured. We will see what happens.

"However, Wilson is still with us and I'm preparing him to play against Manchester City tomorrow."

The Honduran midfielder has played a massive role for the improving Latics this term. However, the club haven't been able to ignore the money offered by Spurs, considering that they signed him for just £1m from Deportivo Olimpia a year ago.

Wigan reportedly rejected a £10m bid for the player earlier this week.
