Tottenham are set to kick-start their transfer business by making a £4million bid for Juventus striker Fabio Quagliarella this week.

Spurs boss Tim Sherwood is looking to add at least two new faces to his squad this month, but despite admitting that he’s been promised money to spend, he is yet to move for any players.

However, after a meeting with chairman Daniel Levy on Monday, Sherwood is ready to make some moves, starting with Italian forward Quagliarella.

The 30-year-old is out of favour at Juventus, and reports in Italy say he has been told he can depart the club this month.



Spurs believe they could get him for as a little as £4million – and have put Franco Baldini on red alert to fly out to Turin to discuss terms if a bid is accepted.

Quagliarella was offered to Arsenal in the summer, and is thought to be desperate to move to the Premier League in a bid to put himself in the shop window ahead of the World Cup.

Tottenham will be light in the striker department next month, when Jermain Defoe departs White Hart Lane to link up with the Toronto team following his transfer this week.
