Liverpool, Spurs told £14M for Bent

Liverpool and Tottenham have been told to up their bids if they want to sign Charlton striker Darren Bent.
Bent rejected West Ham and a five-year contract worth an incredible £75,000 a week yesterday, so opening the door for Spurs and Liverpool to bid for the striker.
Like Liverpool, Spurs are offering Bent £35,000-a- week and guaranteed first-team football.
But Charlton have told both clubs they will only listen to offers of £14m plus extensive add-ons - including goals, appearances and England caps.

West Ham United are expected to move for Liverpool striker Craig Bellamy after Darren Bent pulled out of a deal yesterday.
The Hammers want a pacy forward and were stunned by Bent's decision to reject a £17 million switch from Charlton Athletic.
The Independent says the free-spending Londoners will now turn to Bellamy to boost their attack.
