Tottenham in audacious bid for Madrid hero Raul

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly lining up a shock move for Real Madrid icon Raul. The 33-year-old striker is expected to leave the Bernabeu this summer after a glittering 18-year spell with the club.

Raul is thought to have received offers from Germany, USA and Qatar, but he is believed to be keen on a move to England.

Tottenham, along with Newcastle, have been linked with an offer to bring the former Spain international to England.

Agent Barry O'Connor admits there is a great deal of interest in the classy forward.

"With a player of this pedigree there is always a lot of interest but nothing will happen until Real Madrid give the official go-ahead that he can leave," O'Connor told The Sun.
