Tottenham are interested in signing Saido Berahino to improve their attack but they are not ready to meet his high valuation.
Berahino was a major hit for West Brom last seasons as he netted no fewer than 20 goals in all competitions.
Daily Mail suggests that Tottenham are stepping up chase to secure the signing of the England international but are preparing an offer that will fall short of West Brom’s €28million asking price.
The price tag may seem high but not really for a young England international who had a brilliant last campaign for the Albions. Moreover, Spurs must take into consideration the inflated market as well.
Liverpool sold Raheem Sterling to Manchester City for a mammoth sum of 69 million Euros. The former QPR star could only score 11 goals and provided 10 assists in 52 appearances for the Reds last season.
Berahino directly contributed in 26 goals (20 goals, 6 assists) in 45 games for West Brom last season.
Should Spurs meet the asking price to sign Berahino?

If Sterling is worth 68 Mil Euros then SB is worth just as much probably more – better player more goals, better conversion rate, better assist rate etc etc.
Best for him to get full on first team action for another year at West Brom, bag another 20 goals and pocket a cut of 70 Mil plus going to a top 4 team. (MU, MC,LFC or Arsenal). Spurs will always be also rans no matter who they sign
Jumbo, your football knowledge is outstanding. SB has out grown your little pond and wishes to be tested higher. He is undoubtedly talented but not in the same league as Sterling. He may well prove to be there but not yet 15 to 20 mil is a fair price. Why you feel the need to criticise Spurs for signing 1 of your players is beyond me. It smacks of jealousy to me Dumbo
