Spurs target holding out for 'top club'

by Tom Adams, 08 January 2008

Ajax left back Urby Emanuelson has revealed that a heart-to-heart with former Tottenham midfielder Edgar Davids has turned him against a possible move to White Hart Lane.

The North London club are believed to have made an approach for the Ajax defender who has been linked with all manner of clubs thanks to his impressive performances in De Eredivisie.

Emanuelson has now told Spurs not to waste their time attemping to agree a deal with his club though as he is holding out for a move to a bigger side after taking advice from Davids.

"I have talked about it with Edgar Davids, because he played there," Emanuelson told Sportweek magazine.

"Edgar told me it was a great club, but that I should not join Spurs. He said to me: 'You are an Ajax player, you are young and talented, so you only need to go to a top club in England, Spain or Italy'.

"I have thought about what he said and I think he is right."

Emanuelson?s declaration is a further transfer blow for Spurs who have already seen Rangers right back Alan Hutton turn down a move to White Hart Lane in January.

Do they really believe that Ajax and the Dutch league are still great? Bless them.
