Transfer Talk and Safe Standing review


Spurs scout Santos starlet Junior Kingue who trialled with Manchester United and Manchester City


Currently in Brazil after trialling with Atletico Paranense, before Santos brought him in on a permanent deal, on the recommendation of Pele, Tottenham Hotspur have sent scouts to watch Junior Kingue.

The 19-year-old Santos starlet has also been scouted by Burnley after coming to Europe to have trials and failing to secure a deal. He can operate as a centre-back or as a defensive midfielder.

Safe Standing

With news that Spurs have future proofed the new stadium with safe standing, there is the news that Sports minister Tracey Crouch has announced a fresh review into the subject of safe-standing in English football.

The MP expects findings of the initial research to be completed before the end of the year after a petition forced the issue to be re-visited..

“Today I can announce we will commission an external analysis of evidence relating to the all-seater policy.

“The one thing we need to do is collect and analyse the evidence that exists and ensure that all views on this issue can be heard and considered before we make any changes to the all-seater policy.

“Change cannot and should not happen overnight on something as serious as football ground safety. My mind is open on the future of the all-seater policy.”
