Spurs to sign SA defender

Spurs to sign SA defender

Wednesday, 27 October 2010

South African international defender Bongani Khumalo will join Tottenham Hotspur in January after agreeing a pre-contract agreement subject to a work permit being granted, the Premier League club said on Tuesday.

The centre back, 23, who has played 19 times for South Africa and scored in their 2-1 win over France in the World Cup, had a trial with Spurs in September, impressing manager Harry Redknapp enough to offer him a contract.

Spurs confirmed on their website (www.tottenhamhotspur.com) they have signed him from their South African club partners, Supersport United after Khumalo led them to a record-equalling third straight South African Premier League title.

Spurs have struggled in central defence this season with club skipper Ledley King plagued by a chronic and long-term knee condition limiting his availability while Michael Dawson and Jonathan Woodgate are long-term injury absentees.
