Spurs defender off to Greece

Tottenham defender Bongani Khumalo is set to join Greek side PAOK Thessaloniki on a season-long loan deal.

The central defender has failed to break into the Spurs first-team and considering that we have lost two defenders in Ledley King and Ryan Nelsen, it looks as if Khumalo doesn’t really have what it takes to become a first-choice defender for us.

He has previously had loan spells at Reading and Preston and will now ply his trade in Greece as he looks to get regular football once again.

“The clubs have agreed and the player and myself will be travelling to Greece this week with a view to agreeing and finalising the player’s personal terms for the loan deal,” his agent Glyn Binkin told KickOff.com.

Khumalo joined from Supersport United for a fee in the region of £1.5 million in January 2011.
