A host of Premier League clubs are ready to do battle for the signature of Portugal midfielder Joao Moutinho.
Prospective new Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas wants the 25-year-old to become his first White Hart Lane signing by replacing the outgoing Luka Modric.
But Villas-Boas, who signed Moutinho for Porto back in 2010, will have to convince the player to chose Spurs over Champions League trio Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea.
Liverpool are also interested in the former Sporting Lisbon man, who impressed at Euro 2012 before Portugal's semi-final elimination at the hands of Spain.
Moutinho has a £40million buy-out clause in his contract, and Porto are thought to want around £32m for their star man.
