In response to the claim that Spurs had tried to sign the French striker on loan almost two months ago, Liverpool coach Rafa Benitez tried his hand at unsettling Tottenham's Jermain Defoe with inciting remarks in the press on Friday.
Spurs contacted the Premier League concerning the incident but have not made an official complaint about Benitez's conduct. A Premier League spokesman confirmed: "We have been made aware of the situation but we cannot launch an official inquiry until we receive a complaint."
