<strong>Brazil midfielder Willian is reportedly discussing personal terms with Tottenham Hotspurs after successfully compelting his medical at the London club according to Sky Sports.</strong>
The 25 year old Anzhi star was transfer listed by the club after billionaire owner decided to offload high earning players this summer following a disappointing domestic campaign. <br />
Tottenham manager Andre Villas Boas has been vocal about his desire to sign the highly rated playmaker and it seems like Tottenham are edging closer to securing his services.<br />
Willian would become Tottenham's record transfer signing this summer after having broken the club record twice already in the ongoing transfer window. After signing Paulinho for £17million and paying £26 million to Valencia for the signature of Roberto Soldado, Willian is set to complete Villas Boas' transfer activity this summer.<br />
Former Anzhi manager Rene Meulensteen has backed Spurs chase for Willian and is confident of the player's success in the Premier League.<br />
"I've worked with him for a short time but I really, really like him. He will be an asset for whoever's going to get him," said Meulensteen on Sky Sports News.<br />
"If it's Spurs that's going to get him, they'll get an excellent player. He's very versatile, he can play in different positions, he's a very creative player and an excellent professional with a very good personality."
