Tottenham Hotspur have beaten Manchester United to the signing of Sam Johnstone, reports have claimed.

The West Bromwich Albion goalkeeper is a wanted man after the Baggies failed to win promotion back to the Premier League this season.

Johnstone, who came through the academy ranks at Old Trafford, has been at the Hawthorns since leaving United in 2018.

Spurs are keen to find a long-term successor for Hugo Lloris, who will be a free agent in 2024.

The London Evening Standard says Antonio Conte is confident Tottenham will beat the Red Devils in landing Johnstone.

The 29-year-old was left out of the West Brom squad for the final month of the Championship run-in after he made it clear he wanted to leave.
