Just to let you know there is a post on our Derby site from someone claiming Will Hughes told him he is joining Spurs. No idea how true it is but thought I would pass it on, as it is possible with Spurs having been one of the clubs that have chased him for years.

We were scouting him years ago but don't know if we have recently. I would be amazed if we went for him, isn't Tom Carroll quite similar and probably better? Plus the lad on the Derby site says 15mil, really? From the limited times I have seen him he looks good but 15m is ridiculous surely, maybe he is a lot better than I tbought. Liverpool were looking at him for a while, Inglethorpe told me that years ago.

This has got to be a load of rubbish. Where would he even fit in?. Just no.

I'm a Chelsea fan but I'm from Derby and was a Derby season ticket for the last 5 seasons (apart from this season because of uni) but I've got to say Will Hughes is top class. He is similar to Tom Carroll but much better in my opinion. The only problem with Will Hughes is he's very lightweight and to be honest with you he's an idiot (met him a few times on a night out). He's got a horrible attitude and sometimes it shows on the pitch as he can be a little inconsistent. As I said before though, he's a very good player
{Ed001's Note - there have been talks about him with Boro, but I believe their failure to earn promotion will have scuppered their chances of getting him on a permanent deal now. I am not sure they will have the money to buy him and stay within FFP rules in the Championship.}
