    Tottenham look to £10m striker as Damiao rumour quietens 

    Tottenham being linked with a striker is daily news, but it has been one man in particular that has been the talk of north London. Leandro Damiao to Spurs has been done to death, so you will be please that the Mirror are reporting another name could be on the way to the capital.

    Benfica star Rodrigo is the man they talk of, and a transfer fee of £10m will apparently be enough to secure his services. The Spain U21 forward is just one of the frontmen that Andre Villas-Boas is looking at as he attempts to bolster his firepower in the attacking areas of his squad.

    With Emmanuel Adebayor running out of time and likely to be departing in the coming weeks the Portuguese boss is left with just Jermain Defoe as an option, and with Gareth Bale also being linked with a move to EVERYONE with money, they need to replace the goals.

    It is easier said than done, of course, but the money they receive will be enough to inject a wealth of quality into the squad, and hopefully get Tom Huddlestone a haircut with the change.

    Will Spurs fans see the 22-year-old in the lilywhite shirt next season? Or will they finally get their Brazilian in the shape of Damiao?
