According to FootballInsider.com Tottenham have rejected the chance to sign former Liverpool and Chelsea striker Fernando Torres. The Spanish striker has been offered to the club by Athletico Madrid after he returned from his loan at AC Milan.

The 19-year-old French forward has scored 11 goals in 29 performances this season and may well reduce Spurs' demand for another striker.

The Express are reporting that Manchester United are looking to swoop for Spurs do Harry Kane and Delle Alli. Mauricio Pochettino is thought to be keen to hold on the pair who have both starred for the London club this season.

According to reports Louis van Gaal’s staff have prepared dossiers on the players having watched the last four of Spurs’ games. However, both players have signed long term contracts with the club and Daniel Levy will be looking for a huge offer to even tempt him to part with his most valued assets.

Another player that may not be at Old Trafford next season is midfielder Michael Carrick. The 34-year-old ex-Tottenham player is out of contract at the club this summer as the Sun reports that ‘multiple’ Premier League clubs are interested in the star. A move back to his old club could be on the cards.
