Danny Rose is a target for Atletico Madrid - and the Spanish club are prepared to fight Manchester City for his signature.

Atletico boss Diego Simeone has had Spurs left-back Rose scouted extensively this season and has now made his interest known.

Rose, 24, has enjoyed an outstanding season for Tottenham and broken into the England squad.

But it is believed that the north London club could sell him for around £14million in order to strengthen elsewhere, as they have a ready-made replacement in the squad in Welshman Ben Davies.

City are looking at Rose as they seek to replace under-performing left-backs Gael Clichy and Aleksandar Kolarov, as well as boosting their quota of English players.

But Atletico’s interest could be intriguing for the Yorkshireman, as he may fancy the challenge of playing abroad.

Simeone is targeting a left-back and is also trying to re-sign Chelsea’s Filipe Luis, who has failed to nail down regular football since a £15.8m move to London from the Vicente Calderon last season.
