Tottenham's move for Juventus midfielder Tiago Mendes has this evening collapsed after the club and player couldn't agree personal terms.Tiago has long been linked with a move to the Premier League with Manchester City, Bolton and Newcastle all said to be interested in the Portuguese international.
The 26-year old made over 40 appearances for Chelsea during his time in England and played a large part in Chelsea's title winning season three years ago.
It is believed Juande Ramos will now turn his attentions to Valencia midfielder David Albelda. The player has been told by Valencia manager Ronald Koeman that he can leave the club and Tottenham are believed to among the interested parties.
I believe the signing of Tiago would of been a good one for Spurs manager Juande Ramos. Tiago is a good midfielder that I feel would of been a good addition to the Spurs side, however I feel the signing of Albelda would be just as good for Spurs.
