Moyes wants Soldado & Capoue

David Moyes, the manager at Real Sociedad, is keen on taking Roberto Soldado and Etienne Capoue on loan from Tottenham.

Tottenham however are not interested in loan moves, preferring to get players off the books permanently. rather than for six months and then get them back on the wage bill. Still if you don't ask you don't get do you. The new Capoue story comes from Noticias de Gipuzkoa, a local San Sebastian newspaper.

This story has been repeated around Spain and it claims that Real Sociedad have already contacted Tottenham to find out his availability. They also suggest that Moyes might be at White Hart Lane for the League Cup semi-final tonight against League One side Sheffield United.

Fellow Spanish newspaper Superdeporte recently reported that Roberto Soldado, still referred to as Soldier in Spain, could sign for Sociedad. They suggest that Sociedad would want a loan move and that Tottenham are willing to talk. The prospect of a loan is slim to say the least, it's believed that Tottenham want the misfiring striker to stay until the summer at least. The paper also suggests that Sevilla might be interested in a deal if they can sell first.

There has been speculation from Italy and Germany about loan moves and sales but the fee paid for Soldado makes a sale almost impossible at the moment. A swap deal would be more beneficial to Spurs but getting a goalscorer in return for a misfiring goalscorer is not exactly an easy task. The suggestion is that Sevilla striker Carlos Bacca would travel in the opposite direction but whether Tottenham are even interested in him is not known, at this stage it's mere speculation based upon a Spanish papers suggestion.
