Newly-monied Tottenham pursuing Manchester City title winner: reports
Tottenham Hotspur are looking towards a former Manchester City title winner to bolster their ranks.
The Lilywhites are buoyed by recent revenue increases of an eye-watering £500 million, according to reports, with events including Beyonce’s Renaissance tour, Tyson Fury’s fight with Derek Chisora and NFL games all taking place at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium.
Now, Spurs are reportedly keen to rival Arsenal and Liverpool for the signature of a world-class former Manchester City winger.

The German international has been in sensational form for current club Bayern Munich this season, registering nine goals and 11 assists in 26 outings in all competitions. His creative output in recent months has been particularly eye-catching: all ten of his Bundesliga assists have come in the past 11 games.
Tottenham are meanwhile also to be pursuing a deal for teenage Norway international Antonio Nusa, with current club Brugge said to be holding out for a transfer fee worth up to £25m.

“Tottenham want to sign the player now and allow him to join in the summer. Nusa does not want to leave Brugge now.
“There are also other clubs in the race. It is not a done deal which is why Tottenham want to be fast.”
