Luis Fabiano, who has been strongly linked with a move to the Premier League in recent weeks, has today said: “There would be no point in me joining Tottenham.”

The Sevilla striker looks set to leave the La Liga side this summer, with the likes of Manchester United, AC Milan and Chelsea all reported to be interested.

Fabiano, 29, is considered by many as one of the best strikers in world football and is currently in South Africa with Brazil. In his six years with Sevilla, Fabiano has scored an impressive 94 goals in all competitions.

The former Sao Paulo striker, who is likely to cost around the £28 million mark, had more to say with regards a possible move to White Hart Lane: “I might as well stay at Sevilla, it’s the same thing.”

“Sevilla are actually bigger when you look at how much we have been in the European Cup, so there would be no point me moving to a smaller team.” He also had this to say when asked about the possibilty of him joining Manchester United: “I think the way Manchester United play football is very attractive. I must be honest and say Premier League football attracts me and also the way Manchester United play football attracts me.”

“You think about being Wayne Rooney’s strike partner and that is very attractive for any striker.”

Very interesting comments from Fabiano, I’m sure you’ll agree. Personally, I believe Fabiano would be a massive success in England and the sooner he moves to the Premier League, the better. There is no doubt that Fabiano can score goals but would he be able to adapt to the pace of English football?
