Ex-Celtic star Fraser Forster 'lined up' by Champions League hopefuls Tottenham

Former Celtic star Fraser Forster is being lined up by Tottenham for next season, according to reports.

The ex-Hoops stopper is out of contract at Southampton in the summer with the Champions League hopefuls making him their preferred candidate to be Hugo Lloris' back-up.

The Athletic report that the 34-year-old is now a target for Spurs as they aim to rebuild their squad this summer.

He's set to leave St Mary's in the summer and Antonio Conte's men will seek to push a deal over the line once the English Premier League season is over.

Pierluigi Gollini is the current back-up at the club but he is set to depart once his loan deal from Atalanta finishes.

It's reported that the former Celtic fans' favourite will miss the final day clash with Leicester City and has already said goodbye to his Southampton team-mates.

Forster featured 24 times this campaign and has been the first-choice for Ralph Hasenhuttl's side for the second half of the season.

He's picked up six caps for England to date and now looks set to compete with Lloris for the gloves at Tottenham next term.
