China striker Qu Bo to train again with Hotspur
( 2003-07-04 14:20) (Xinhua)
Chinese international Qu Bo will make trials again with English premier
league side Tottenham Hotspur late in July after a failed attempt to join the
north London club last year.
The 22-year-old striker, who plays with Chinese first division club Qingdao,
has been invited to join the Spurs in a Spanish training camp but was forced to
cancel the trip with a foot injury.
"I have got the visa to England and will join the squad in London three weeks
later when they return to White Hart Lane," Qu said.
The pacy striker won Spurs manager Glenn Hoddle's heart last year in a trial
and the former England boss offered him a one year deal on loan. But the British
Home Office denied him a work permit complaining that he had not played enough
international matches.
After playing in the World Cup for China last summer, Qu is believed not to
be denied this time for the same reasons.
