Tottenham plan to get Christian Benteke for £20 million — by making a raid at the end of the transfer window, The Sun reports

Benteke is a major target for Spurs but chairman Daniel Levy will try to get the Belgian star on the cheap.

Aston Villa, who signed the striker for £7m, insist they do not want to sell and it would take an offer of more than £30m to tempt them.

Levy is happy for the season to start before making his move late in August.

Benteke, 22, who scored 23 times last season, is on £20,000 a week and could be offered double that to sign a new Villa deal.

Spurs are ready to offload Emmanuel Adebayor in their bid to land Benteke.
