Tottenham Hotspur Winger David Bentley Set For Manchester City Switch - Report

EPL: David Bentley, Arsenal - Tottenham Hotspur (PA)
Manchester City are set to launch an £8 million January bid for unsettled Tottenham Hotspur winger David Bentley.

The player worked with City boss Mark Hughes whilst at Blackburn Rovers, and the Welshman is a known admirer of the attacker, whose career at White Hart Lane has never really gathered any momentum.

The Daily Mirror
reports that Martin Petrov may move in the other direction as part of the deal. The Bulgarian international was set to move to Spurs in the summer, but the switch collapsed on the last day of the transfer window.

Bentley will be keen to kick-start his career again after moving south from Rovers for £15m 18 months ago.
