Latest Tottenham transfer rumours: Mourinho keeps tabs on striker dubbed new Cristiano Ronaldo

Here are your latest rumours for Monday, April 20.

Juventus want to partner Kane with Ronaldo

Serie A giants Juventus are eyeing up a sensational swoop for Harry Kane as they seek  a long-term replacement for 33 year-old Gonzalo Higuain, according to the Sun.

Higuain refuses to return to Turin amid the ongoing coronavirus and Juventus may want to cash in on the Argentine to fund a big money move for Kane.

Kane admitted last month that he could move elsewhere in the future in order to realise his title-winning ambitions.

Alasdair Gold on who Spurs could sell

Juventus will face competition from Manchester United who are also thought to be preparing a bid in the region of £200m.

Spurs want Porto prodigy

Jose Mourinho is showing a keen interest in countryman Fabio Silva, according to reports from Calciomercato.

The 17-year-old Porto forward – who can also play as a number 10 - has been compared to Cristiano Ronaldo and has turned heads across Europe this season.

Reports suggest Juventus, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are also keen on signing the youngster.

Silva has grabbed three goals and laid on two assists in the first team this season, making 18 appearances.

His release clause is a massive £107m, but the report states he could go for around half that price.

Lloris backed for Spurs stay

Sky Sports’ Lyall Thomas has had a look at Tottenham’s squad and assessed who should stay or go this summer.

And he’s backed shot stopper Hugo Lloris to remain in North London despite a difficult season for the Frenchman.

“The cost of replacing one top goalkeeper with another these days has become huge,” writes Thomas.

“In better financial circumstances, Spurs may have looked at replacing the 33-year-old after a string of errors, but that looks unlikely now and the skipper still has two years left on his contract.”
