Tottenham Hotspur in talks with Barcelona over Ilaix Moriba

Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Ilaix Moriba from Barcelona in the summer transfer window, according to Sky Sports. It has been reported that Premier League club Tottenham and La Liga outfit Barcelona are in talks over the transfer of Moriba.

Barcelona want £17 million to sell Moriba this summer, and Tottenham are close to reaching an agreement with the Spanish and European giants. Personal terms with the 18-year-old central midfielder are unlikely to be a problem, according to the report.

However, Tottenham are not the only club who are keen on Moriba. German outfit RB Leipzig want to sign the Barcelona teenager as well and are in talks to sign him. Barcelona are ready to sell the high-rated teenager because he is out of contract next summer and has refused to sign a new deal.
