Real Sociedad striker Willian Jose will reportedly make his way to London for talks with Tottenham Hotspur about a possible transfer.

According to AS, the Brazilian is set to travel on Wednesday night or Thursday morning to the English capital, to determine whether a move can be facilitated this January.

Spurs have just over a week left to find cover for the injured Harry Kane, with many names having been mentioned since the England captain hobbled off against Southampton on New Year’s Day.

Kane is looking likely to miss the rest of the season with a ruptured hamstring, which is a big blow for Spurs who are hoping to finish in the top four.

Sociedad striker Jose has turned out 22 times so far this season and scored eight goals.

According to The Sun, the player has a whopping £60 million release clause.

TBR’s view – Jose and Jose a match made in heaven?

AS’ report is bound to get one or two Tottenham fans excited.

That Jose, who’s scored 53 goals for Sociedad since joining in 2016, could actually travel to London himself for talks would suggest there is certainly interest on the player’s part.

Jose could be a very effective signing under Spurs boss Jose Mourinho, who historically likes to work with burly, physical number nines (Didier Drogba, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Diego Costa to name a few).
