The club strengthened during the last moments of the winter transfer market. With only an hour and a half left until midnight, "Charlton" agreed to sell the player for a sum that could reach up to 2 million pounds (around 3.5 million euros).
In August 2004, leaving "Liverpool," D. Murphy rejected an offer from "Tottenham" and chose "Charlton." In this team, he played 64 matches and scored 10 goals, but recently he was not satisfied with his team and "Tottenham" rushed to take advantage of it.
"'Spurs' ('Tottenham Hotspur' abbreviation - ed. note) has always been a club that I liked, and although we couldn't agree before, this time everything was different, and I am very happy about it. I can't wait to join Martin Jol's team," said the 28-year-old player.
On Tuesday, they also made hot money moves, acquiring 24-year-old Welsh striker Robert Earnshaw for 3.5 million pounds. Meanwhile, "W.B.A" also didn't hold back and bought Scottish international defensive midfielder Nigel Quashie for 1.2 million pounds.
