The 23-year-old had looked to be on his way to the Barclays Premier
League when Spurs made their move earlier in the day.

However Hutton is understood to have turned down the chance of a move
to White Hart Lane.

The Scotland right-back had looked to be nearing the end of his Ibrox
career following reports of an £8m bid from the north London side.

There was contact between the two clubs and Hutton was informed of the
potential opportunity to move south of the border.

However Hutton tonight decided the move did not suit him, and the deal
appears to have broken down irretrievably.

Tottenham representatives are known to have watched Hutton in action,
and his outstanding performance over the past year has attracted
plenty of attention from England.

The 23-year-old has made the number two shirt his own for club and
country, starring for Rangers in the Champions League and for Scotland
during their Euro 2008 qualifying matches.

Hutton was lauded by Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson as a
player who "looks as though he will become a superstar" in the future
following his display against Italy at Hampden in November.

He was also outstanding in Scotland's 1-0 victory over France in
Paris, and Rangers have been understandably keen to keep him in
Glasgow.

The bid from Tottenham was sufficiently high for Rangers to leave a
decision on the move up to Hutton, who signed a new five-year contract
last July.

His loyalty to Rangers will delight the club's supporters, who see
Hutton as a key player in the club's future.

Rather than move to Tottenham, who have ambitions of a top-four finish
in England, he could compete for silverware in the Clydesdale Bank
Premier League with Rangers, and have a greater chance of playing in
the Champions League.

Last month assistant manager Ally McCoist expressed his hope that the
defender would stay in Glasgow.

McCoist said: "We don't want to lose players of his quality."

Midfield & Strikeforce for Porto- Your Picks I guess our defence is pretty much the same every match, so there's basically two choices: Who would you play upfront? Me: Torres ---- Crouch Bench: Vorinon Who would you play in the engine room? Me: Kewell----- Bench:

Stop the boos! Why is it that as soon as something doesn't go exactly according to the wishes of the fans they feel the need to Boo their own players. No wonder the players can't be bothered playing hard for us. What chance to get any good players to come in Janurary
