Ex-West Brom boss Irvine: Berahino not ready for Spurs move

Former West Bromwich Albion boss Alan Irvine says Saido Berahino isn't ready to join a club the size of Tottenham.

Berahino scored 14 Premier League goals last season and has been linked with Spurs.

"Is he ready to play a huge part at a club like Tottenham who want to be challenging for the top four? Probably not yet," Irvine told BBC Radio 5 live.

"I always said to Saido that as long as he kept focus and did the right thing then he would continue to develop."
