Tottenham Looking To Replace Modric With Ganso

Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp has already lined Brazilian sensation Ganso as the player he wants to replace Luka Modic if, as expected, he completes his move to Chelsea before the end of the transfer window, reports out of France are suggesting.

L'Equipe are reporting that Spurs are eyeing a move for Brazil international Ganso, who is keen to test himself on the bigger stage of European football.

With Harry Redknapp now coming around to the idea of selling midfield playmaker Modric, signing a replacement is on his mind, and top of the list is the Santos player.

Ganso and his current team mate Neymar have both been linked with moves to Europe this summer, but the club are determined to hold on to their star assets until at least January, as they are due to play in the Club World Championship later this year.

Santos have reportedly rejected offers from Real Madrid and Chelsea for Neymar, while big spending PSG have had an offer for Ganso rebuffed by the Brazilian club.

However with a potential transfer kitty of £30million, it may be hard for Santos to reject Spurs' overtures, should they make their interest formal.
