I bet Spurs value him at £1,499,999 - the bastads
By Paul Camillin
Albion are unlikely to receive any additional money from Spurs as a result of Bobby Zamora's deadline-day transfer to West Ham United.
Zamora signed for his boyhood heroes yesterday as make weight in the £7m-plus deal that saw Hammers goal ace Jermain Defoe move to White Hart Lane.
Albion are awaiting official confirmation from the League on the value placed on Zamora by the two clubs, but if the club are to receive anything - under the terms of the sell-on clause - that value would need to be higher than the £1.5m Albion received for Zamora in the summer, as such clauses only relate to amounts over and above the initial fee - and as Albion Chairman Dick Knight explained that is unlikely.
"It depends on the value Tottenham put on him," Knight explained. "We won't know that until the League clarify it. It only becomes relevant to us if they valued him above the £1.5m. I suspect that's unlikely, given that he's not been a regular in the first team."
