JUANDE RAMOS has turned to Argentina star Ezequiel Garay
to plug Tottenhams leaky defence.
Spurs want to hijack Liverpools bid for the £10million-rated
centre-half.
Garay, 21, plays for Racing Santander and is widely regarded as one
of the best rising stars in Spain.
Set-piece
wizard
Kop boss Rafa Benitez has been tracking Garay for months but Ramos
hopes to cash in on the turbulent times at Anfield and complete a
dramatic swoop.
Garay is a set-piece wizard and scored nine goals last season from
deadball moves.
Ramos has improved Spurs defending in recent weeks but the club
has still conceded 21 goals at home in the league the worst
record, along with Fulham in the top flight.
He had also hoped to lure unsettled Chelsea defender Tal Ben Haim
across London as his first signing but has encountered stiff
resistance from the Blues.
