It's official now:

Notts County have confirmed that young forward Kion Etete has joined Tottenham Hotspur.

The 17-year-old, who has been at Notts since the age of 14, enjoyed a successful trial at Hotspur Way earlier this year, impressing sufficiently to attract a bid from the Champions League finalists.

Etete, who follows in the recent footsteps of Dongda He (Wolves) and Jack Bearne (Liverpool) in progressing from Notts’ academy to earn a move to the Premier League, made his senior debut against Newcastle United’s Under 21s in last season’s Checkatrade Trophy before going on to make a further five appearances for the Magpies.

He leaves with the club’s best wishes for the future.

No my daughter broke it before she set off for Swindon and send me the picture- bad omen but summed up our season well.

My extremely unreliable source stated - and I quote:

"The fee is thought to be £800,000ish, cheque made payable to HMRC "

P.S. I am definitely NOT IMTK and for what it's worth, where NCFC are heading, Etete would be about as useful a player as a cracked chocolate teapot...
