Tottenham's Woodgate Bid Accepted Tottenham Hotspur have had a ￡7m offer for Jonathan Woodgate accepted by Middlesbrough and are expected to announce the conlcusion of deal before the weekend. The surprising deal came as the north London club are finally springing into action with less than a week to go before the end of the winter transfer window. Woodgate was given permission to speak to Tottenham after they matched the fee that Boro paid Real Madrid for the 28-year-old last summer. Juande Ramos made bolstering his defence the priority in January and was linked to several star names, but Woodgate's has not been mentioned before the news that a dela has been virtually done. Boro boss, Gareth Southgate, wanted the England international's future to be resolved as he will still have time to find a replacement with the windfall. The defender arrived on Teesside on a permanent basis this summer after a successful loan spell from Real Madrid, with whom he spent three injury-stricken seasons. Spurs manager Juande Ramos apparently admires the player to such an extent that he's willing to put Woodgate's frequent injury troubles to one side. Woodgate will not feature against Mansfield Town tomorrow in the FA Cup. Tottenham are also said to be close to securing the services of Tiago from Juventus, but differences over the player's wage demands have halted the deal. While Tiago has been the name in the spotlight, it is believed that Ramos' favourite to fill the midfield holding role is Valencia's David Albelda. ---- 简单的说就是木门要来了 Tiago or Albelda也很可能来 --
