Tottenham fail with second deadline day bid for West Brom's Berahino

BBC Sport has been reporting how West Bromwich Albion are holding firm as Tottenham continue to pursue Baggies striker Saido Berahino.

"West Brom have rejected two more bids today from Tottenham for Saido Berahino, making it four rebuffs in all.

"I understand they offered around £5m, with the rest loaded in instalments and incentive payments that West Brom simply wouldn't entertain. There would've been no advantage for West Brom in agreeing to sell such a prized asset so close to the deadline, with so little cash up front."
