Long term Tottenham and Stoke target Saido Berahino, 21, has been subject to transfer speculation for the last two seasons.
Having issued a transfer request in the last window, Berahino looks set to finally get his wish this summer according to Stoke boss Mark Hughes.
Hughes has said “Spurs will always have an interest in quite a few players we are interested in. If a player has a choice of Spurs or Stoke, then we could pitch up and make a good case for them to come here.”
With Hughes effectively throwing in the towel on signing the West Brom striker, it leave Spurs in pole position to complete the transfer once the window opens.
