CSKA Moscow slap £26m price tag on Wagner Love as Tottenham ramp up interest
CSKA Moscow have slapped a £26million price tag on Vagner Love following reports that Tottenham Hotspur are keen on the Brazil hot shot. [LNB]The 26-year-old has been in fine form for the Russian giants since returning from a year-long loan in South America for family reasons. [LNB]Love had hoped to stay on longer in Brazil after stints with Palmeiras and Flamengo, but CSKA are refusing to agree another short-term deal and will only listen to big offers from European clubs.

Sources in Brazil suggest a deal in January could be done for closer to £15m if Spurs do renew their interest. [LNB]Tottenham target: Juventus striker Vincenzo Iaquinta[LNB]The north London club tried to sign him two years ago when attempts to snare Roman Pavlyuchenko from Spartak Moscow were in doubt.
