Hutton joining Spurs?

According to reports, Rangers' defender Alan Hutton will be joining Tottenham after Arsenal, Man Utd and Liverpool all pulled out of the race for the Scottish international defender.

The Scottish full-back has been linked with a move to the Premier League for some time and it now appears as though he will join Spurs for a fee believed to be around £7 million come January.

Hutton put in a number of terrific displays during Scotland's failed Euro 2008 qualifying campaign and that caught the eye of many Premier League managers including Rafa Benitez, Sven Goran Eriksson, Alex Ferguson, Sam Allardyce and Arsene Wenger.

Several big Premiership sides have been chasing the player, but it appears Juande Ramos is going to win the race for his signature.
