West Ham reportedly send scouts to watch 22-goal hitman Spurs are tracking

Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United are both keen on Besiktas forward Cyle Larin ahead of the summer transfer window, according to 90min. Spurs want a new striker with Carlos Vinicius set to return to Benfica at the end of the season after his loan spell following an unimpressive Premier League campaign. There is also growing uncertainty over Harry Kane’s future at the club. Larin has scored 22 goals and assisted another four across the Super Lig and Cup this term, and his ability to play as a number 9 and on both wings has impressed West Ham and their London rivals. David Moyes’ side have sent scouts to run the rule over the Canadian international, and he is not expected to cost an arm and leg with just a little over one year left on his contract. The 26-year-old bagged 43 league goals ...

‘Would be very good!’ – £25m Spurs man reacts as 40y/o becomes leading contender for job

Tottenham Hotspur left-back Ryan Sessegnon is backing Fulham manager Scott Parker to succeed Jose Mourinho at the North London club. The England youth international is currently on a season-long loan at Bundesliga side Hoffenheim and is hoping to force his way back into first-team reckoning next season. Sessegnon joined Spurs from Fulham in the summer of 2019 for £25 million, but failed to impress, making only 12 appearances under both Mauricio Pochettino and Mourinho. Whoever takes over from the Portuguese permanently would have a huge say on the youngster’s immediate future at Tottenham, and he is hoping that his former boss at Craven Cottage lands the job. “That would be very good,” the 20-year-old told talkSPORT when informed of the reports linking Parker to the Spurs job. “Everyone kn...

West Ham reportedly want Portuguese top-flight hitman & have held talks

The Elland Road outfit want to sell Rodrigo after a disappointing campaign, and head coach Marcelo Bielsa is said to be keen on Aguero as a replacement. The Leeds boss is a huge fan of his compatriot, but a move does not look likely going by Romano’s latest update. “I want to say that Kun Aguero wants to join Barcelona,” the journalist said on the Here we go podcast. “He is pushing to go to Barcelona – he wants to play with Leo Messi. Contacts are going on. Barcelona won’t decide anything before the end of the season, ...

Spurs have reportedly approached EPL-winning boss who once wanted to sign Kane

Tottenham Hotspur have approached Inter Milan manager Antonio Conte over becoming their permanent boss this summer, according to Corriere dello Sport. The Italian outlet claimed that talks took place last month after Jose Mourinho was sacked, and both parties discussed Spurs’ current squad and potential reinforcements needed for next season. However, Conte is not necessarily looking to leave Inter this summer and will hold talks with the owners at the end of the campaign over the plans for next season. The former Chelsea boss won the Premier League title and FA Cup in the two seasons he spent at Stamford Bridge and could be tempted to return to England if he leaves Inter. Conte’s current contract with the Nerazzurri runs until 2022, and he earns around €13 million after tax. The Itali...

‘Kane absolutely will leave Tottenham’ – Journalist reveals what he has been told

Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has been linked with a £90 million summer move to Manchester United, and it will be interesting to see whether chairman Daniel Levy will sanction the transfer. According to talkSPORT journalist Alex Crook, he has been told by a Premier League chief that the England international will leave the North London club at the end of the campaign.

It’s not even in debate,” Crook said on talkSPORT’s Gameday podcast. What I actually said was ‘I was told by someo...

Leeds United are interested in bringing Club Brugge forward Noa Lang to Elland Road this summer, according to The Telegraph. Whites head coach Marcelo Bielsa wants to strengthen his attack for next season and has also been linked with a renewed interest in Rangers star Ryan Kent.

Leeds are looking at other options and have been impressed with Lang’s performances. The Netherlands youth international fired Brugge to the Jupiler Pro League title with 15 goals and seven assists in 25 games, and he is attracting the Yorkshire outfit and other suitors across Europe.

According to The Sun, Manchester United will look to make an audacious move for Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane this summer, and the Glazers are ready to sanction a £90 million bid for the England international.

Elland Road-linked manager reportedly offered to Spurs & Celtic

Roma manager Paulo Fonseca has been offered to both Tottenham Hotspur and Celtic, according to The Transfer Window podcast. The Portuguese is leaving the Serie A outfit at the end of the season, with Jose Mourinho taking over. The Special One was sacked by Spurs a fortnight ago, and the north Londoners have been linked with a couple of names already. Fonseca is the latest, and he fits the bill given that chairman Daniel Levy wants a young manager who cherishes attacking football. Celtic are also looking for something similar in their next manager, and it is why Eddie Howe has been tipped as the favourite to succeed Neil Lennon. However, with the former Bournemouth yet to sign with the Hoops, Fonseca could emerge as an option although the finances involved could be an issue. Leeds Unit...

Spurs have reportedly approached 63y/o under-contract Italian boss, he has responded positively

Tottenham Hotspur have enquired about Atalanta manager Gian Piero Gasperini as they continue their search for Jose Mourinho’s permanent replacement, according to The Transfer Window podcast. Ryan Mason has taken charge of the team on an interim basis, and while he is reportedly under consideration for the job, Spurs would ideally prefer someone with experience. While Gasperini does not fit the ‘young and dynamic’ model they are looking for, his recent achievements with Atalanta appear to have caught chairman Daniel Levy’s attention. A leading agent in Europe has informed the 63-year-old of Spurs’ interest, and he has responded positively. Gasperini plays a possession-based football, favouring the 3-4-3 formation and high-octane pressing style, and the lure of managing in the Premier League...

Celtic legend Shunsuke Nakamura reacts to Rangers winning the Premiership title

Celtic were looking to set a new record by winning the Scottish Premiership title for the 10th season in a row heading into the 2020-21 campaign, but Steven Gerrard’s Rangers had other ideas. The Ibrox outfit secured their first league title in a decade on March 7 and have gone 36 games without defeat this term.

Sunday’s 4-1 win underlined the huge difference between the two sides, and former Parkhead favourite Shunsuke Nakamura has reacted to the Light Blues’ impressive campaign. “I still follow Celtic and watch the news and watch the games,” Nakamura told The Guardian. “I think Rangers were strong this season and deserved to win the championship.
