Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp wants to complete a move for FC Twente goalkeeper Nikolay Mihaylov in January, as the club scour Europe for a long term replacement for American keeper Brad Freidel.

Freidel is expected to retire during the summer, but there has been talk of a one year extension to his contract should he stay fit throughout this season.<br />

Alternatively, Spurs could now move for the Bulgarian international keeper Mihaylov instead. The 23 year old shot stopper is familiar with the Premier League, and enjoyed a spell with Liverpool back in 2007 until 2010, with the keeper backup for Pepe Reina.<br />

Twente are reportedly looking for around 7.5m GBP for the transfer of Mihaylov.
