Spurs close to £60m deal for Bournemouth's Solanke

Tottenham Hotspur are in advanced talks with Bournemouth about a £60m deal for striker Dominic Solanke.

The 26-year-old's release clause of about £65m was confirmed by Bournemouth owner Bill Foley in an interview with BBC Sport last month.

The two clubs are however negotiating a fee below that for the striker, who has played once for England.

Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou wants to reinforce his attack after failing to replace England captain Harry Kane following his move to Bayern Munich last summer.

Solanke enjoyed the best season of his career last term, scoring 21 goals in 42 appearances for the Cherries.
