King blasts agent of Tottenham-linked ace as transfer talks get underway

Bryan King has slammed Kia Joorabchian, agent of Tottenham-linked midfielder Andreas Pereira.

The ex-Spurs scout claims the North London club shouldn’t go anywhere near a deal which involves Joorabchian.

It comes after a report from Globo Esporte (5 June) shared that Tottenham have expressed an interest in the Fulham playmaker, as conversations get underway with Joorabchian.

And King – speaking exclusively to Tottenham News – is not a fan of the agent.

“I wouldn’t go near him,” King said.

“He is a big agent, and that is what is wrong with football.

“Agents dictating fees. They should be helping the players.

“Look at the money that has gone out of the game to agents. For what? Causing problems in football clubs and forcing their clients to kick up a fuss.”

Andreas Pereira is not worth the trouble for Ange Postecoglou and Tottenham

Pereira is a decent Premier League midfielder.

He has shown his quality for Fulham and could perhaps be a useful addition for Ange Postecoglou.

But if his transfer is going to come with any agent trouble, it is a deal that the club are better off avoiding.

Other midfielders out there would likely be available for less money and do just as good a job.

The last thing Spurs want is to get mixed up with an agent who likes to stir up drama.
