Non-League forward Tanner fails to agree Spurs personal terms

Lewes forward Ollie Tanner's move to Tottenham is off with the Isthmian Premier League club claiming the player was unable to agree personal terms.

Tottenham agreed a deal with Lewes to sign the teenager earlier this week but the East Sussex side are expecting the player to remain with them.

A Lewes statement read: "Lewes Football Club would like to confirm that whilst the club and a Premier League club agreed a deal in principle for the transfer of Ollie Tanner, Ollie and the Premier League club were not ultimately able to agree personal terms and he remains a Lewes FC player.

"Tanner missed today's game against AFC Hornchurch due to an injury sustained midweek and we look forward to welcoming him back to the side as soon as he has recovered."
