Louis Saha: Signs with Tottenham

Striker Louis Saha has left Everton to join Tottenham.

The 33-year-old had six months remaining on his current deal but has been allowed to move to White Hart Lane.

Saha has managed 20 appearances this season, scoring just twice.

"Striker Louis Saha has left Everton to join Tottenham Hotspur," said a statement on evertonfc.com.

The 33-year-old French striker has struggled for form this season, scoring just twice, and was left on the bench for last Friday's FA Cup fourth-round win over Fulham.

He joined Everton on a free transfer from Manchester United in 2008 having previously played for Fulham and Newcastle.

Saha scored 15 goals in the 2009-10 campaign but has had numerous fitness issues since and the arrival of Nikica Jelavic means he looks to be on his way out of Goodison Park.

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp confirmed he expected the deal to go through, telling Sky Sports News after his team's 3-1 defeat of Wigan: "I like Saha.

"He's got good movement, can score goals but probably needs a change. He's out of contract at the end of the year so David Moyes has let him go.

"I can remember speaking to Rio Ferdinand and he said he was the best forward he'd played against."

here has only been 3 players who made me hold my breath in dread when they picked the ball up anywhere near our penalty area...in their prime Scholes and Giggs... and always Drogba. Awesome player who on his day was the best striker in the world in my opinion.

remember him scoring a 25-yarder, either the season just gone or the one before, against Bolton at the Reebok. I've never seen a ball hit that hard before in my entire life. You could almost feel the shockwave from his foot contacting it 40 yards away in the stands. Didier Droga. You might not have loved him, but you just had to be in awe of him.

den Hazard, def. - 1) that girl in a club who makes eyes at you all night, who allows you to buy her a drink and walk her home arm in arm, who then gives you a suggestive kiss on her doorstep before declaring how tired she is and how she has to be up early the next day. 2) A cock tease.
