Tottenham Hotspur are in the process of securing the services of Paris Saint-Germain forward Ezequiel Lavezzi, according to Italian publication Tutto Mercato Web.

The Argentine international has one year left on his contract and there have been no talks of extending his current deal. Tottenham are said to be rivalling Liverpool for the stars signature.

Tottenham have apparently won the race for the transfer of Lavezzi, this in itself shows the statement of intent from Pochettino and Tottenham as they look to be trying to get there business done early with the other rumoured transfer of Kevin Wimmer looking to have also gone through.

Surely this is a blow for Liverpool, Lavezzi may have been the perfect replacement for Sterling who seems to already be out of the door after refusing to sign a contract with the reds.
