Spurs line up £35 million striker but Berbatov may have to make way

Tottenham are planning a move for Barcelona striker Samuel Eto'o once the summer transfer window opens but current striker Dimitar Berbatov may be heading the other way. (Various)

Spurs boss Juande Ramos recently said he was interested in Eto'o saying that Eto'o is the kind of player that Spurs are looking for to improve the team.

Eto'o is currently valued at around the £35 million mark but today there has been talk that there may be some sort of swap deal worked out between the two clubs. Barca are believed to be interested in Berbatov who has been at Spurs for two seasons now.

I personally think Ramos is being a bit ambitious with his transfer targets. Why would a player like Eto'o want to leave Barca and join Spurs. He is a terrific striker who scores bag fulls of goals but unfortunately I don't think he will be coming to England.
