Tottenham willing to wait until summer for Internacional striker Leandro Damiao

Tottenham have been forced to postpone plans to sign Internacional striker Leandro Damiao before today's deadline.

The Telegraph says Spurs have been in negotiations over long-term target Damiao, hoping to beat off competition from the likes of Paris St Germain, and agree a lower fee than has been demanded by his club Internacional who have rated the Brazilian striker at around £20 million.

However Spurs' hopes of a deal being completed before Tuesday's deadline for Damiao were dashed, although the club may return for him in the summer.
