Defoe; "I'll sign for Spurs"
Former Spur striker, Jermain Defoe, is said to have informed family members that he has played his last game for Portsmouth and will be moving away from the South-Coast club in a deal that will take him back to Tottenham Hotspur.
Harry Redknapp will make Defoe his first signing since joining the club. A source close to Jermain Defoe commented on the England international this afternoon by adding that Defoe "absolutely loves Tottenham and he's got a lot of mates there".
Expect an announcement from the club shortly.

I was at the match so I heard what the spurs fans were singing.
Homophobic and racist don't get anywhere near describing the hateful atmosphere at Fratton park that day.
Hopefully, many more of the scumbags who shouted such objectionable abuse at Sol Campbell will be arrested and banned from football for life.
The press twisted the context of the chanting regarding racism. I think it's hard to argue that football is not inherently homophobic, can anyone think of one openly gay Premiership footballer? Or any pro footballer for that matter? Law of averages dictates there will be more than a few.
Anyway I think Campbell, the press and Redknapp should all stop whining about the abuse dished out. Had Sol acted with a little more honour & honesty as opposed to the greed Sky Andrews his Mr 10% (& the rest!) instilled in him he wouldn't have this problem.
FYI - I wouldn't be surprised if Defoe resigns for us, afterall he is a Yiddo!
You hit the nail on the head, Sky Andrew(s) & Campbell were destined for each other & Campbell has reaped what he sow...not racist taunts simply he betrayed us...I was at the final game of the season vs Man U and Campbell came round kissing the badge..few mnths later he was off...these are the facts guys.
YOU'RE ON THE VERGE OF LUNACY!
WE DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE HANGIN' FROM A TREE..
YOU JUDAS C*NT WITH H.I.V!!
Now whats racist about that people?
SOL, WHEREVER YOU MAY BE
YOU'RE ON THE VERGE OF LUNACY! (A/ he's not mentally unstable and B/ mentally unstable people need help. Sol Campbell does not need help as he is a multimillionaire. Partly on my money as a member and ex season ticket holder 1992 onwards. For my sins.
WE DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE HANGIN' FROM A TREE.. ( sorry Tottenham fans of which I am one, a black man hanging from a tree is indeed a racist image: see the photos from the USA in the papers about 1900-1930 and Nina Simone's song "Strange Fruit" )
YOU JUDAS C*NT WITH H.I.V!! I agree he is a Judas. He was a great loss to THFC -who in turn were foolish not to have sold him a year before for 10-15 mil. It is filthy to call someone with HIV. HIV is spread by clients of sex workers men and women, as well as by the so called gay community. Also plenty of non heroin drug users (ie coke, speed, &c) finan…
Football fans are fickle and biased. Therefore you hate anything that goes against your club e.g. Sol.
Because of this, you chant anything derogatory in order to unsettle the player in question. The harsher the comments, the harder the kick behind it.
Finally, this is not the first or the last. Does no-one recall who the honorary president of Watford is? He gets stick at just about every game of football he attends, and he's not even playing.
Maybe, just maybe, there is no need to get anyones knickers in a twist over absolutely f*ck all
Jermaine Defoe, he is a yido!

Those who think it has racist connotations are racist themselves and are suggesting that only black men have ever been found hanging from a tree! In reality, plenty of people from all different backgrounds have hung themselves from a tree since the dawn of time I would imagine.
Some seriously need to grow up and look at the real issues going on around the world as opposed to trying to convict 14 yr old Tottenham fans of racist abuse because of a non-racist song. Seriously sad and pathetic people out there...
fans are the same wherever. spurs scumbags who sang the disgusting song at campbell, and pompey (my own team) scumbags for the death threats to defoe and taunting of redknapp.
fans should wise up and realise that they're all mercenaries, players and managers. anyone who thinks otherwise is deluded (or thick). but, they also don't owe fans anything either, its their job.
as for defoe, you're welcome to him. whining little git who thinks he's better than he actually is. i thought he was overpriced when we got him so if we can make a profit on him its job done.
