Crouch set for Spurs switch
Portsmouth manager Paul Hart has revealed he has accepted a bid from Spurs for striker Peter Crouch.
Spurs boss Harry Redknapp has been looking to reunite Crouch with his former Portsmouth strike partner Jermain Deofe and it now looks as though he has succeeded with a bid of around £10million.
Hart, who last week signed a two-and-a-half year deal to remain with the south coast club, claimed it was a result of a bid to balance the books following a period of unrealistic spending under Redknapp.
"Obviously I'm disappointed to see Peter leave, but given the severe financial restraints in place here we had no choice but to accept an offer from Tottenham," he told the Daily Mirror.
"I think people need to realise that Pompey have been punching above their weight and could no longer sustain the level of spending that has gone on here over the last three years."
