Why Tanner is not Tottenham Hotspur-bound - it's nothing to do with money nor old tweets about Harry Kane
Ollie Tanner has earned high praise from his manager at Lewes FC for his ‘level-headed’ decision to turn down a move from Lewes to Spurs.
And Rooks boss Tony Russell has promised the 19-year-old hot prospect that the club will look after him all the time he stays at the Dripping Pan.
Tanner looked set for a move to the Premier League giants last weekend after the two clubs agreed a transfer fee – though Lewes said it was not near the £100,000 that some national media outlets claimed.
