Craig Bellamy is ready to turn his back on the chance to return to Liverpool in order to sign for Spurs.
Manchester City's forgotten striker was reported to be on his way to Anfield on a free transfer, after Reds boss Kenny Dalglish indicated he could be the right man to provide cover for Luis Suarez.
But it seems the Welshman has decided against having a second spell at Liverpool, as he would prefer to challenge for a starting role at Spurs.
Bellamy has now told Tottenham officials he is happy to move to White Hart Lane and the deal should be completed in the next few days, reports the Mail on Sunday.
The 32-year-old could find himself linking up with another City outcast in London, as Emmanuel Adebayor recently joined Spurs on a season-long loan.
The two formed an unlikely friendship at Eastlands - mainly in response to their similar treatment at the hands of Roberto Mancini, who refused to select either for extended periods of time last season.
