Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson has accused Tottenham Hotspur of 'manipulating the rules' in signing his former defender Ezekiel Fryers and urged the Premeir League to stop the player's registration.
.
The 20-year-old was out of contract at United in the close season. He looked set to join Tottenham but the deal broke down when the clubs failed to agree a compensation package.
.
England youth international Fryers then moved to Standard Liege in Belgium but completed a transfer to Tottenham on Thursday, with media reports estimating the fee at three million pounds ($4.81 million).
.
'' We espected that '', Ferguson told the United website on Friday. '' I think it's a blatant manipulation of the rules ''.
.
Spurs entertain third tier Coventry in the FA Cup on Saturday.
