TOTTENHAM are stunned after Blackburn slapped a whopping £9.45million price tag on their whizkid defender Ashley Phillips.
Spurs thought they would be able to sign the centre-back, 18, for only £2m plus extras in a bargain swoop.
However, I can reveal the extraordinary package Ewood Park chiefs want in return for the teenage discovery.
Rovers are demanding a guaranteed £5m with a chunk paid immediately and the rest settled in the next two years.
Blackburn then want £150,000 when Phillips starts at his new club and TEN bonuses in all after a set number of appearances, up to 80 games.
