Brad Friedel hopes Tottenham can sign Emmanuel Adebayor.
A permanent deal for striker Adebayor also appears on the cards following his successful loan spell from Manchester City.
Friedel said: "If we can do a deal for him and he can score another 20 goals, it would be a huge bonus for us.
"We are a little light in the strikers department at the moment, and that is an area they will be looking to bring people in - hopefully they can get that deal done for Manu."
