Tottenham Hotspur's Andre Villas-Boas reveals Roberto Soldado interest

Tottenham Hotspur manager Andre Villas-Boas has revealed that talks have been held over the potential transfer of Valencia striker Roberto Soldado.

Soldado has been linked with an £18m move to White Hart Lane, but Villas-Boas has insisted that the Spaniard is just one of the players that he is interested in signing for the club.

The 35-year-old told reporters: "At the moment, he is just one of the players that we have been interested in. It's not a lie to anyone that we have been looking for a striker to strengthen our squad.

"Roberto is one of the players that we have been following. His career record speaks for itself. I think that he is a great striker, but there isn't any deal being struck at the moment. It's just interest and conversations."

The 28-year-old has netted 81 goals in 141 appearances for the La Liga outfit.
