Midfielder deal completed
Tottenham Hotspur, 16:09, July 8, 2009 ,
Tottenham have parted company with Didier Zokora after finally striking a deal with Spanish outfit Sevilla.
The Ivory Coast ace has been a target for Sevilla all summer but it looked as though a deal would not happen as the two parties struggled to agree a fee.
However, Tottenham have now accepted an undisclosed fee and the 28-year-old midfielder is heading to La Liga.
Spurs issued the following statement: "We have reached agreement for the transfer of Didier Zokora to Sevilla. The Ivory Coast international joined us from St Etienne in July 2006 and went on to make 134 appearances for the club, including being part of the League Cup-winning side of 2008.
"We thank Didier for his contribution and wish him every success for the future."
