Tottenham Hotspur boss Juande Ramos has explained that he will be looking to make the squad competitive with additions in the summer transfer window regardless of the players’ nationality.

The Spanish tactician took charge of the north London club in October after the departure of Martin Jol, and has been linked with interest in raiding his homeland to bring players to England. However, the former Sevilla boss has clarified that he has no favourites in terms of areas where he will look up to.

"When I look at players I don't look at where they are born," Ramos said.

"There are good players and bad players in Spain, Italy and France. It's a case of my desire is to make the squad competitive.

“It doesn't matter where the players come from, it's just about getting the right players for the squad."
