Spurs in race to sign Kameni

Espanyol goalkeeper Carlos Kameni could be heading to Tottenham in the summer, according to one of the Cameroon international's agents.
Patrick Mboma insists the 23-year-old will quit the La Liga club at the end of this season, with White Hart Lane or Manchester United his possible destination.
"The situation is complicated for him to remain at Espanyol," Mboma said in interviews to both Cadena Ser and Onda Cero.
"Carlos by merit should get more money in any deal, but that is not the main issue.
"Now the player is interested in going to another club, and there are four clubs interested - Atletico Madrid, Valencia, Tottenham and Manchester United.
"In this moment we want a serious club with a big sporting plan."
Meanwhile, Espanyol coach Ernesto Valverde is worried that a club will meet Kameni's get-out clause - which is currently believed to be £4.8 million.
He said: "An effort has to be made to keep Kameni because he is very important. I speak about his situation as my fear is that a club will pay his clause."
Kameni has made 118 appearances in his four seasons with Espanyol.
