Leandro Damiao The second striker Spurs could sign this summer to maintain the flow of goals currently provided by Bale at White Hart Lane is long-term target Leandro Damiao. The Brazilian international has been on Tottenham's radar for quite some time now and the club came close to signing him for £16 million back in January, but failed with their deadline day offer.] The Internacional man has indicated he'd still like to move to Spurs however, with the North London outfit thought to be close to finalising a £36 million deal for both he and the aforementioned Solado. The 23-year old has struck 28 goals throughout his three-year stay at Internacional and has also been capped by the senior Brazilian team as well as featuring at U-23 level. A player with his best years lying in front of him, Damiao could be the perfect summer acquisition for Tottenham. Value: £16 millionTotal Spend: £73 million If AVB can land these 5 targets at their reported valuations, he'd have a team full of quality individuals and over £10 million left in the bank, which would seem to soften the blow of Bale's expected departure just a little.
