Bentley has Tottenham medical
DAVID Bentley is a step closer to his Tottenham switch after undergoing a medical at the club today.
The 23-year-old Blackburn player could be unveiled as early as this weekend - and join their pre-season preparations in Holland - after talks with Blackburn gained pace in the last 48 hours.
Rovers chairman John Williams rejected bids earlier this summer from Tottenham and Aston Villa for the winger but Spurs' latest offer is reportedly closer to the £18million the club wanted.
Arsenal, Bentley's former club, are expected to receive part of the fee as part of the deal between the Gunners and Blackburn.
