Former Tottenham Hotspur striker Frederic Kanoute has suggested he would be open to a return to White Hart Lane.

Kanoute, 30 left Spurs to join Spanish side Sevilla in summer 2005 after struggling to hold down a regular first-team place at the north London club.

Since the move, the Mali forward has become one of the most lethal marksmen in European football and his goals have helped Sevilla win back-to-back UEFA Cups.

Kanoute has been constantly linked with a return following coach Juande Ramos' own move from Sevilla to Spurs in October.

Ramos remains a keen admirer of the one-time Lyon striker and Kanoute himself has suggested a return could be on the cards.

"I would like to play in the Premier League again one day - who knows?" he told The Sun.

"I had a good time there so why not? If the opportunity comes I'd look into it.

"At the moment I am happy in Spain but if Tottenham offer me a great opportunity then I would consider it. Let's wait and see."
