Report: Tottenham lining up summer move for La Liga striker

Tottenham Hotspur were without their lead striker Harry Kane for the past six weeks before his return against Burnley this weekend.

Despite this huge absence in the Spurs squad, the team didn’t drop a single point in the Premier League during his time away.

They also managed to all but book their place in the quarter finals of the Champions League with a 3-0 victory over Borussia Dortmund at Wembley.

Unfortunately Tottenham lost against Burnley this weekend though, despite Kane returning to the starting line up and scoring one.

A report by The Sunday Mirror claims that Spurs are now lining up a move for a Harry Kane back up for next season, with Fernando Llorente’s contract coming to an end in the summer (located on page 61 of the 24/2 issue).

The 22-year-old has scored nine and set up five in 22 games for the struggling La Liga side this season.

Celta Vigo’s Maxi Gomez is the man in question, with West Ham pulling out of a move for the striker in January. The rumoured price for this transfer was around £45m (teamtalk).
