Danny Rose new club

Former Spurs left-back Danny Rose has verbally agreed to join Greek club AEK Athens, according to The Sun.

Rose is expected to sign a one-year deal with Matías Almeyda's side. However, Rose will need the deal to be completed quickly if he is to play for his new team on Saturday against Panetolikos FC in the Greek Super League.

The beginning of the end for Rose in Tottenham colours was when Jose Mourinho was hired as manager. His heated exchange with the Portuguese manager resurfaced when his contract at Watford was terminated.

The 32-year-old's and his former club Watford agreed to mutually cancel his contract two weeks ago. Rose played nine times for the Hornets last season, where they ended up being relegated, again.

Rose left his boyhood club Tottenham last year, ending his 14-year association with the Noth Londoners. After leaving Spurs, Rose briefly played for Premier League side Newcastle United.

Rose scored 10 goals while at Spurs and played in the 2015 League Cup final loss to Chelsea as well as the 2019 Champions League final defeat to Liverpool.

Conte fires warning to Spurs players

Earlier this week Sports Brief reported on Antonio Conte's warning to Spurs players after their shocking collapse in the Champions League.

Spurs conceded two very late goals to fall to Sporting CP in Portugal. This was Spurs first defeat of the season.

The North London club are hoping to inflict more misery on bottom club Leicester City when the two meet tomorrow evening.
