Bournemouth winger Ryan Fraser is eager to move to Tottenham Hotspur when he becomes a free agent, according to the Daily Mirror via @TalkingTHFC.
Chief football writer John Cross exclusively revealed Tottenham have emerged as serious candidates to sign Fraser this summer after previous interest from rivals Arsenal and Liverpool.
The 26-year-old will be allowed to leave the Vitality Stadium on a free transfer in June as his contract will expire at the end of the month.

Jose Mourinho is no doubt well aware he will have to work around a limited budget as the North London club braces for the economic impact of the pandemic.
Spurs were initially linked to wantaway Chelsea star Willian but the Brazil international rebuffed reports earlier this week (talkSPORT).
Fraser is reportedly keen to play Champions League football in the future and feels Mourinho’s side are his best chance of playing in the top club competition.

After arriving at Dean Court from Aberdeen FC for £432k in 2013, the Scotsman has scored 24 goals and created 33 assists for Eddie Howe’s Cherries in all competitions.
As expected, many Spurs fans buzzed over Fraser’s ‘sensible’ transfer update, with one supporter tweeting he is a “better signing than Willian.”

Sell one of Moura, Lamela or Sissoko to free up funds to spend elsewhere
