Saturday's Tottenham Hotspur transfer talk news roundup: Harry Kane, Sam Johnstone, Hugo Lloris

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Tottenham on Saturday, January 2.

The January transfer window is now open, with Tottenham Hotspur continuing to be linked with a host of big names.

Spurs were busy during the summer window and showed signs of troubling the upper echelons of the Premier League table earlier this season, and Jose Mourinho could look to add to his squad again in an attempt to kick on even more.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news on possible comings and goings at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Saturday morning's Tottenham Hotspur transfer talk news roundup:


Manchester City 'to make £89m bid for Harry Kane'

Manchester City are reportedly planning a €100m (£89m) offer for Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane.

The 27-year-old is enjoying another excellent campaign for Spurs, scoring 16 times and registering 13 assists in 23 appearances in all competitions.

Kane has a contract at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium until June 2024, but it has long been suggested that he could leave the club in search of silverware.

According to Bild journalist Christian Falk, City are preparing to make a €100m (£89m) bid for the England captain during this summer's transfer window.

The Citizens are widely expected to bring a new centre-forward to the club ahead of the 2021-22 campaign as Sergio Aguero could leave the Etihad Stadium on a free transfer.

Gabriel Jesus is highly rated by City boss Pep Guardiola, but the Brazil international has only scored twice in the Premier League this term, having also struggled with injuries.

Kane has scored 204 goals in 310 appearances for Tottenham in all competitions, including 152 strikes in 222 outings in the Premier League.



Tottenham Hotspur 'identify two potential Hugo Lloris replacements'

Tottenham Hotspur reportedly view Manchester United's Dean Henderson and West Bromwich Albion's Sam Johnstone as potential replacements for Hugo Lloris.

The 34-year-old remains an important player for Spurs but his contract is due to expire in June 2022, and there has been speculation surrounding the France international's future in recent weeks.

According to The Sun, Jose Mourinho's side are fearful that Lloris could decide to link up with former Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino at Paris Saint-Germain.

The report claims that the London giants are preparing for the World Cup winner's potential departure by identifying two replacements in the shape of Henderson and Johnstone.

Henderson is still number two to David de Gea at United, while Johnstone has impressed for West Brom this season and could move on if the Baggies are relegated back to the Championship.

Lloris has made 344 outings for Spurs since arriving from Lyon in 2012.
