Tottenham manager Juande Ramos has admitted he will have to sell before he can buy as he looks to reshape his squad in the summer.

The Spaniard is expected to make major changes to the playing staff at White Hart Lane in his first off-season at the helm.

However, he has revealed he won't be able to just splash the cash as he looks to transform Spurs into a top-four side.

Several Spain based players, including strikers Diego Forlan and Luis Fabiano plus goalkeeper Carlos Kameni, have been linked with moves to north London, while the future of Spurs striker Dimitar Berbatov remains unclear.

"We have to see how this season finishes before we decide on what players leave and what ones we sign," revealed Ramos.

"We do not have a stipulated amount of money for transfers. It all depends on the income we get from the players we sell.

"We cannot have a squad which is too big. If players come in, then others will have to leave."
