Fernando Morientes' agent has intimated that
Tottenham are keeping tabs on the Valencia striker, who is out of
favour at the Mestalla.
The former Liverpool forward has reportedly fallen down
the pecking order at the Mestalla, and was an unused substitute in
the club's opening game of the new Primera Liga season against
Mallorca.
He recently admitted that this season is likely to be his last
at Valencia due to his lack of starting opportunities.
Spurs boss Juande Ramos currently has just Fraizer Campbell,
Darren Bent and Roman Pavlyuchenko at his attacking disposal and it
has been suggested in Tuesday's press that the Spanish coach could
bid for Morientes in January in order to bolster his firepower.
Morientes' agent, Gines Carvajal, said in the Daily Mirror:
"Tottenham know about Fernando from his time at Liverpool."
The 32-year-old scored eight goals in 41 Premier League
appearances during his 16 months at Anfield.
