Tottenham Hotspur have now set their sights on a potential £26m bargain signing this summer window following a standout campaign that has yielded 19 goals and eight assists.

Failure to beat the drop could lead to an exodus of key players, one that the Lilywhites will be looking to avoid, making it vital for them to stay in the Premier League.
