Fernando Llorente’s name is not one I want to particularly hear again in a hurry. Aside from one or two (and I do mean one or two) useful moments at Spurs, he was distinctly underwhelming in every respect, bar the amount of money he was paid each week.
The Harry Hotspur blog understands from a source close to the club that Burnley’s Ashley Barnes has been monitored by Tottenham, as a possible replacement.
It is my understanding that whilst Levy got 3 good deals over the line, this was in no way the end of his workload, and we go again in the New Year.
Barnes is a rock solid #10 and the Turf Moor icon would – aged 29 now – potentially be a good fit for what would be a cameo role.
Pukki or Lozano would have been great. In the summer.
