Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly lined up Ben Foster as as long term replacement for Brad Friedel. American stopper Friedel, Spurs’ first choice keeper during the 2011/12 campaign, is already 40 years old and Spurs are planning for the future by trying to lure Foster to White Hart Lane from Birmingham City. Spurs’ second choice keeper is Carlo Cudicini, no spring chicken himself either.
Foster, a former Man Utd player, is currently on loan at West Bromwich Albion from the Blues. He has currently made himself unavailable for international selection but a good run at Spurs could see him jump back into the fray and challenge the likes of Joe Hart and Robert Green for the national jersey.
