Harry Redknapp has confirmed Tottenham have signed
Pascal Chimbonda from Sunderland for an undisclosed fee - believed
to be around £3million.
Chimbonda left White Hart Lane in the summer but failed to
settle in the north-east and will now provide Spurs boss Redknapp
with cover across his defence.
The 29-year-old Frenchman will not, however, be available for
the home Premier League clash against Stoke on Tuesday evening.
"I've signed him and he's coming here," Redknapp said.
"The deal should have been done in the morning but it's over-run
the deadline for him to play against Stoke. It was done 15 minutes
too late which was disappointing. Otherwise he would have been
available."
