It looks as though Spurs will be without Gareth Bale
for Sunday's home match against Manchester City, while
Jermain Defoe and Aaron Lennon are also doubtful
according to the Daily Telegraph.
The Daily Mirror claims that Spurs are interested in signing
winger Christian Atsu from FC Porto. The 20
year old Ghanaian is out of contract in a year's time and
his price will be reduced as he does not want to sign a new
deal and would be quite happy joining up with his former
manager Andre Villas-Boas at Tottenham.
In the same article, it states that Spurs are making a £10
million move for Hamburg's South Korean winger Son
Heung-Min, who the Mirror believe will be a replacement
for Gareth Bale.
Younes Kaboul's progress back to the first team has

covered by Sky TV. The away game at Stoke will now
take place on Sunday 12th May 2013 with a 13:30 kick off for

looking to arrange a move back to France, while manager

Uruguayan left back who he worked with at FC Porto and is
now playing at Internazionale. Another player Spurs
are rumoured to be watching to come in at left back ahead of
Danny Rose and Kyle Naughton is Federico
Fernandez, a 24 year old Argentine centre half, who has
been on loan at Getafe this season. Real Madrid left
back Fabio Coentrao has also been linked with a move
to White Hart Lane.
In the same paper, they reckon that should Spurs renew their
interest in FC Porto midfielder Joao Moutinho in the
summer, they could face stiff competition from big spending
AS Monaco, Paris St. Germain and Chelsea.

With no game this weekend for Spurs and with results pushing

on our important members of staff. The Sunday People
reckon that Real Madrid will make a £50 million move for
Gareth Bale and Andre Villas-Boas, while the
Sunday Express say that failure to qualify for the Champions
League will trigger a clause in Bale's contract that can see
him move away from White Hart Lane, with Real set to bid £45
million for him. The Express claim that Daniel Levy's
attempts to sign Bale up to a big salary five-year deal have
been met with little interest.
