Tottenham boss Pochettino eager to close deal for Barcelona striker Munir

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino is eager to close a deal for Barcelona striker Munir El Haddadi.

The Sun says Munir, 20, is unlikely to feature much for the Catalan club this season with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez their first choice along with Neymar when he returns from the Olympics.

A host of Spanish clubs are interested in Munir including Valencia, Celta Vigo and Real Sociedad.

Premier League clubs Stoke and Everton are also interested in the versatile front man.

Reigning La Liga champions Barca will want £12.9m for Munir with a buy-back clause included in the deal.
