Juventus target Benoit Assou-Ekotto

Italian champions Juventus are reportedly plotting a summer move for Tottenham Hotspur defender Benoit Assou-Ekotto.

The Cameroon full-back is said to be open to the possibility of leaving White Hart Lane for a club that have guaranteed Champions League football, which Spurs cannot currently promise.

Tottenham will be denied their place in next season's competition if Chelsea defeat Bayern Munich on Saturday afternoon to lift the trophy.

That has alerted Juventus, who are ready to submit an £8m offer for the defender, according to Sky Calcio 24.

The 28-year-old joined Spurs in 2006 from French club Lens.
