Orangeclement 588 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Tottenham have confirmed the signings of Kyle Naughton and Kyle Walker from Sheffield United. Everton were also in the running to sign Naughton but the defender has opted for the lure of White Hart Lane. Skysports.com revealed last week that Spurs were likely to win the race to sign the England Under-21 international and that has proved to be the case. Naughton broke into the Blades' side at the beginning of last season and never looked back, playing 40 league games in total. Meanwhile, Walker forced himself into Kevin Blackwell's side towards the end of last term after a spell on loan at League One side Northampton. It is believed that Spurs will loan the 19-year-old defender back to the Bramall Lane club while Naughton will be looking to push Vedran Corluka and Alan Hutton for a starting berth at right-back. source- Skysports.com Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muff 245 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Kyle Naughton is just as comfortable on the left, as he is on the right. Kyle Walker can also play at CB, but RB is their preferred position. Don't know what this means for Alan Hutton? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

papaguy51 912 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 was it not somewhere between 10-12m for the pair ? You'd hope not, unless your a Blades fan. If that's the case, they're probably pishing themselves laughing all the way to the bank. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlippinEck 3,787 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Harry experimented with hutton on the right wing, could he start the season there? TBH, as much as it pains me to say, Villa would be a good move for hutton Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo. 952 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 its a sad day for football, when two teens with hardly any first team football under their belts can move for this sort of crazy money It's happened many times in the past. Neil Kennedy, John Hartson, Theo Walcott etc.... There's money to spend down there and they'll spend it. Spurs transfer activity is mucho bizzaro right enough.

sdunsmb 43 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 To be fair, I don't know if anyone has been watching Sheff U this year, but I follow them a bit cos my best mates a season ticket holder and they have both been exceptional in the championship this year. Considering they are 19 and 21, and probably being looked at as future "stars", £10m for the pair is pretty much to be expected. Seemes like £5-6m is the going rate to pluck youngsters who are performing well in the championship, e.g. Joe ledley, Roger Johnson..... Ross McCormack is also valued at the very least £5m.
