Spurs in advanced talks with Arkadiusz Milik?

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly in advanced talks to sign Napoli striker Arkadiusz Milik.

Spurs boss Jose Mourinho has confirmed that the club are in the market for a new striker in order to provide more competition for Harry Kane.

The likes of Gareth Bale and Andrea Belotti have been linked with a move to North London, but Football Insider claims that Tottenham are closing in on a deal for Milik.

Spurs have reportedly offered the Poland international a five-year contract worth £90,000 per week, in addition to a £5m signing-on fee.

However, the price tag remains a sticking point in negotiations, with Napoli thought to be holding out for £30m despite Milik having entered the final year of his contract.

Tottenham could therefore wait until January to secure a pre-contract agreement for the 26-year-old, who is understood to have turned down offers of a contract extension at the Stadio San Paolo.

Milik scored 13 goals in 35 appearances for Napoli across all competitions last season.
