KEANE CONFIRMS MIDO OFFER

Monday August 6,2007


Sunderland manager Roy Keane has confirmed the club have made a bid for Tottenham striker Mido.


The Egypt striker had looked set to join Birmingham for £6million until the deal fell through but Keane, who has struggled to acquire the quality of players he desires so far this summer, has revealed he is now pursuing the frontman.

"We have made an offer to Spurs for Mido," he told the Daily Express. "He is a player I would like to speak to and to bring to this club. Trying to get these sort of quality players is a challenge, but all I want is the opportunity to speak to the lad. If it doesn't work out then we will move on."
