Tottenham to splash £10m on Rangers' defensive rock Carlos Cuellar

Tottenham have added Rangers defender Carlos Cuellar to their wish list for the summer following his superb debut season in Scotland.

Cuellar, who has just been named the Scottish Football Writers' Player of the Season, has been a key part in Rangers' incredible bid to win the Quadruple.

Cuellar joined Rangers for only £2.37m from Osasuna last summer.

Spurs have already managed to make the most of Rangers' need for funds by signing Alan Hutton for £8m in January and know that a big offer will prove difficult to refuse.

Manager Juande Ramos wants to strengthen at the back for next season with captain Ledley King plagued by injury, and Michael Dawson and Younes Kaboul likely to leave.

Tottenham are lining up a cut-price bid for Birmingham's Olivier Kapo should the Blues be relegated. Kapo, who only last week claimed he was willing to stay at the club even if they did drop into the Championship, has emerged as a surprise target for Spurs. Boss Juande Ramos is keen to beef up his squad and sees the 27-year-old as the ideal candidate and is considering preparing a bid.

The French midfielder has five goals this season but hasn't scored since he notched in the 3-1 defeat at Everton back in November.
