Keane back to Spurs – reds take 2M hit

Robbie Keane has completed a medical and resigned for Tottenham Hotspur, the club he captained until his move to Anfield in the summer of 2008.

The reds paid £18.3 million for the player with potential additional fees linked to appearances valuing the entire deal at just over £20 million. However, our understanding is that these additional fees will not be due by Liverpool for the player. In the modern world of installment-based payments Liverpool have only paid around half of the transfer fee for Keane to date.

Liverpool and Spurs agreed a fee for Keane late this afternoon – believed to be for around £16.3 Million.

Robbie Keane made 28 appearances for Liverpool scoring on 7 occasions. In Liverpool’s last three fixtures Keane has spent a game away from the ground, played 7 minutes at the end against Wigan and spent yesterday’s 2-0 win over Chelsea observing from the stands.

We wish Robbie the best of fortunate in his future.
