MICAH RICHARDS could make a £9million summer switch to Spurs.
Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has been assessing Richards' situation at Manchester City and knows that the defender would be interested in a move.
Richards missed out on Fabio Capello's provisional World Cup 30 after an indifferent couple of seasons but believes he has got his focus properly back now.
At 21, a more mature Richards is determined to push his way into the international fold again next season and build on the 11 caps he won as an exciting teenager.
Although Richards has played both centre-back and right-back, Redknapp sees him first and foremost as an attacking full-back who can take over from Croatia's Vedran Corluka.
But before Tottenham can bid for Richards they have to raise money by making sales.
Scottish international full-back Alan Hutton, who has flopped at White Hart Lane, could be one of the first players to go.
He spent part of last season on loan at Sunderland and the Black Cats are keen to take him on full-time.
Jermaine Jenas and Robbie Keane, who has been on loan at Celtic, could also bring in cash.
