Levy slams 'wholly inappropriate' West Brom after Berahino chase

Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has issued a thinly veiled swipe at West Brom after his failure to secure the signature of Saido Berahino.

West Brom acted "wholly inappropriately" in their handling of Saido Berahino amid interest from Tottenham, White Hart Lane chairman Daniel Levy has said.

Tottenham saw four bids for the England Under-21 striker rejected during the window, while Berahino had a transfer request turned down.

Hawthorns chairman Jeremy Peace took the unusual step of publishing this information, as well as his own opinions on the offers, on West Brom's official website, accusing Levy of "antics which were designed to get him [Berahino] out of our club cheaply".
