Signed , sealed , delivered , Crouch signs for Spurs


Tottenham have agreed a deal with Portsmouth to sign striker Peter Crouch for an undisclosed fee.

The fee for Crouch is believed to be in the region of £10m and the contract reported to be for five years and worth £70,000 a week.

The 28-year-old England international has agreed personal terms and passed a medical at White Hart Lane.

A statement on the Portsmouth website has indicated that Crouch's sale was dictated by financial issues affecting the south-coast side.

Crouch, who opted against joining Sunderland, returns to the club where he began his career as a trainee.

Crouch scored 16 goals in all competitions for Portsmouth last season and, in a club statement, Pompey acknowledged the need to cash in on their star striker.
