Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Michel Vorm is set to leave White Hart Lane when his contract expires.

According to the London Evening Standard, Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino could move for an English goalkeeper this summer.

Michel Vorm is set to leave Spurs, with his contract coming to an end, and Pochettino is now drawing up a plan to replace him.

Tottenham already promoted Paulo Gazzaniga to second choice mid way through last season, but they want to add a third senior goalkeeper to their ranks.

Spurs did have too many overseas players last campaign, so Pochettino wants to make sure that the goalkeeper he brings in is English, to avoid any complications.

The Standard does not offer up any names as to who the goalkeeper may be, but it could be that Spurs either go for a very experienced stopper, or a youngster who they can develop.

The signing is unlikely to trouble Hugo Lloris for a first-team place, but could give them further depth in the goalkeeping department.

Tottenham are still yet to make a senior signing this summer, meaning that they have now waited 17 months since their last addition, which was Lucas Moura back in January 2018.
