da realbet: Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp is considering a January move for highly-rated Celtic winger James Forrest according to The Sun.
da bwin: The 20-year-old is one of Scotland’s top young talents and has been on Redknapp’s radar for months and is now poised to make a bid and test the SPL giants resolve to hold onto him when the transfer window reopens at the start of next year.
Spurs’ chief scout Ian Broomfield has already been sent to Parkhead to run the rule over £10 million-rated Forrest during the Bhoys’ game against Hibernian on Saturday and was impressed by what he saw.
It’s now thought that the North London club are weighing up a bid worth £7 million with a view to bringing him to White Hart Lane despite the winger having two and a half years left on his contract.
Boss Neil Lennon is reportedly set to fight tooth and nail to keep his prized asset north of the border despite Forrest’s ambition to play in the Premier League.
Lennon was full of praise for the Scottish international after the 0-0 draw with Hibs although that is unlikely to keep him at the club with the lure of playing England likely to see him leave in January.
