Liverpool close for Keane


Keane: Future Kop idol?

It's happy days at Tottenham. Possibly.

They might not have any strikers left but they'll certainly have lots of cash.

With Dimitar Berbatov apparently off to United for £28m, Spurs appear to have agreed a £20m deal from Liverpool for Robbie Keane.

And Sunderland are still trailing Darren Bent for £16m.

Suddenly the £22m price tag on Eto'o looks like a bargain.

If Liverpool get Keane for £20m – and he's a Liverpool fan, so they probably will – that'll take the player's total transfer values to a remarkable £60m.

Despite a decent scoring record - 107 goals in 254 games for Spurs – it all feels somewhat unlikely. Though not as unlikely as Ronaldinho moving to Manchester City.

Which isn't happening. Because the buck-toothed Brazilian has signed for AC Milan.

Even though City appeared at one stage to have agreed a £25m fee for the fancy-footed forward. However, Milan released a statement that: '“AC Milan and Barcelona have reached an agreement in principle over the transfer of Ronaldinho.

'The player will be in Milan on Wednesday to undergo a medical and sign a contract that will keep him at Milan until 30 June 2011.'

Manchester City were reportedly offering £200K a week but Ronaldinho is believed to have taken half of that for the move to Italy.

Yeah. Can't blame him, really.
